Hi,
 
I've just joined this group hoping to get some comments 
on the A100 Mini system module configuration.
 
I'm definitely going to order a system, I guess I just want
to hear from some existing users that the standard module
configuration is actually OK, or whether there is any 
additional "must have" module I should consider. I'm
planning on extending my system later on anyways, I'm
just wondering what the best initial set is.
 
I currently use an Akai AX-73 and a Roland D-50 for
electro and house music both in a live performance 
set-up (+drums, +bass) and for recording.
 
I unfortunately can't use the Excel sheet as I am a
non-Microsoft user. BTW, I'd be happy to volunteer 
re-writing that module configurator in some accessible 
web technology (XML)
 
Anyways, the A-100 system seems great, I heard a lot
of good things about it and I can't wait until I have my
own A-100 system :-).
 
Thanks in advance for any comments,
 
- Sebastian

The Mini Basic System is a pretty tight, cohesive configuration. You 
might get a suggestion or two, but not a consensus. I think it would 
be difficult to improve on it significantly.

I started with it and expanded from there, after getting a feel for 
the A100. It worked out for me.

Hi Sebastian, you have hardly a chance to pick alternative modules 
within such a small frame. But I would definitely replace the A145 
for a A147. You didn't mention the assigned role of your A100 in your 
set up. If your D50 is the leading one and the A100 for more 
experimental sounds the A148 would probably the better choice than 
the A114. But a S&H sounds very specific so you might find it of 
little use. And finally a minority's point of view: If you don't mind 
warmer and softer sounds go for the A122. Ilanode--- In

hi list,
i think sebastian should stick with the basic system
as is,because the a145 can go to higher frequencies
than the a147!also,i would suggest to keep his
a114.and as for the filter he will probably want one
of each type in the future...so.....
bakis.
