Bakis,

being in one of the few European countries that does not use euros, quick calculation, just under 217 GB Pounds. Yes I would be happy to pay that for what is speced so far.

Remind me, are we talking about an 84hp module or a standalone like the MAQ16/3?

Regards

David

hi list,
as far as i know,this sensor-keyboard with all these
features(4 voice polyphony,analog,digital
seq,aftertouch,gate out for every key with leds...and
all these that dieter doepfer describes,midi
out,too...)would cost about 350 euros...i think it's
an acceptable price,don't you think??
