Analogue-sequencer

>>Are you the Duncan who posts on the Genoqs site? If so, did you ever
get your Zeit? I'd be curious as to your experiences with that.<<

paul- he said the "z" word!

yes, I (rude word) am.

no, the (rude word) zeit hasn't (rude word) shown up yet. it's well
over a (rude word) year since I paid for it, taking over mr nagle's
place in a suuposedly very short queue of (rude word) "beta testers".

well, I mean no offence to any of the h/w sequencer fans who've
managed to (rude word) jump ahead of me & already have their (rude
word) machines, while I'm still (rude word) waiting, but the very
reason paul suggested me as his replacement was that I am.... no, I
can't finish that sentence without sounding like a bitter twisted
w*nker. you will have got the general idea by now.

but I will add this: between seeing the octopus for the first time (on
the fab musicthing blogsite) & unwrapping the bugger at my desk at
work was about a month. maybe less- I'd have to check. & I know that
in terms of hardware resources, gabriel is no better off than david.

anyway. it's partly because of the depth of the p3 that I decided to
go for the zeit. the p3 is too complex a beast for (ahem) everyone in
my band to operate comfortably. the zeit looked like it would be a bit
more user-friendly, as more of the functionality we would typically
have needed is exposed through the larger UI.

but now, music-lovers, we are working on an album with hardly any
sequencer on it at all.... it's all drums, bass & guitar. there is a
section with the p3 on it, but we're having arguements about whether
it gets to stay on. ho, as they say, ho ho.

duncan.
