Re: [elektron] Recently got Monomachine, quick question...

I, too, am more of a programmer than a player.  The great thing about 
the tabletop is that you can take it out to the couch and create music.  
The keyboard version is great, too, but I like the portability of the 
tabletop.  Also, if you attach a controller like the MicroKontrol to it, 
you get much of the same functionality.  I've turned the MicroKontrol 
into the central control surface of a rig which included the SFX-60 and 
Live.  It's pretty sweet.
