Re: [elektron] Mono Machine or Virus or Nord G2 Modular Synths???

2005-02-25 by Paul Love

I just want to Have a synth that is inspiring to work with and not 
insanely deep. I might spend up to 25 30 minutes tweeking a sound But 
im not patient enough for a Synth like Absynth where you are building 
the synth from scratch I like to work for my sounds But I also like to 
make music as well!!!! I guess for me its probably a tossup between the 
Virus TI or the Monomachine . Everyone who has a Monomachine seems to 
like it allot and its cheaper than Virus TI But I cant make up my mind. 
The Nord Looks Insanely Hard As far as the learning curve goes I dont 
know????
