>>The reason I bought it was mainly for tuning a real analogue sequencer I built to drive my modified Moog Rogue. I sold the Rogue for 40 quid in 1989 when I got my D-50. [oh dear...]<< indeed. the rogue is a sleeper, moog-wise, because of the apparently- cheap build, the missing hardware, switch functions combined & so on. back in 1995 or 1996, I knew a band called Tiger, who used a rogue exclusively for basslines. I modified the little beast to run osc2 an octave lower... I think I did some other stuff to it... put a proper mains socket & transformer in it (& this led to me taking my own rogue all the way to nijmegen without it's wall-wart because I thought I'd rememered to do mine aswell). so Tiger's rogue found itself, with their cult-success, being responsible for all manner of structural damage. I think I paid £120 for mine, & £69 for the mg-1. but I digress. one of my favourite things is a step sequencer driving an analogue synth /without any quantisation/. I know, after the posts about key changing & microtuning, this is probably a bit counter-intuitive. but there's a connection. for instance, I write "analogue synth" patches for my emu boxes, using not just the user tuning tables but also quite a lot of random pitch modulation & note-number>pitch skewing. I am very attached to the sound of the yamaha cs30's in-built step sequencer, or the roland 104 driving pretty much anything. these things are like screwdrivers next to the precision lathe of the p3. I'm probably in some sort of denial if I content that this has nothing to do with a sentimental attachment to the first published rumblings of the TD-owned 960s on "phaedra". probably. part xpose on through-notes? that ought to do it. I think I might stop after this build.... :-) d.
