Re: [elektron] Mono Review

And you got good ol' sidstaion brining up the rear beating em down with his
cane!

I thought the review in SOS was good, all things considered. They could have
torn it apart, preying on its specs etc.. But they "got" the machine I
thought. I think they could have gone on about the absolute brilliance and
complete easy of use of the machine as a whole, especially using it to
sequence other gear.

Basically they were like it's weird, if you weird you will be very happy
being weird together.
