> If you are planning on going for a "voice-only" panel (i.e. no sequencer), I'd just get an Animal, unless you *really* want /N comp or a TGO. Better density that a dual-osc + creature IMHO, and almost the same price.This has become the crux of my decision: to sequence natively (on-panel) or not... still chewing on it.
> I thought I really needed a sequencer, because I wanted a completely stand-alone 1-panel unit, which could do melodic things and that I could play while sitting on the sofa.Yes, I was/am thinking along the same lines.
Spoke with Rex yesterday (great guy, btw), and given my specific application (part of which whll require tracking to standard western tonalities), it may be a good idea to look toward NTOs/PCOs.
Though I'm not sure if a Seq-A + Dual Osc wouldn't short me on slopes, should I want to include the sequencer, of course.
If on the other hand I decide to go voice only, as mentioned above, I may start leaning toward the Animal, though I'm not sure that "almost the same price" is valid.
It's coming together.
