Elektron Musical Instruments

Just adding my spoon to the soup; Where has this stubid myth came
from, that says 'everything done in reason sounds like reason'. I
don't see much of a reason for it. I kind of understand that people do
use a lot of bundled sounds (samples) from reason, because they are
very easy starting point for making good sounding music. Of course
when on tries to grow as an independent artist, one will seek (and
learn) his/her own sound more. I believe reason has nothing wrong with
it. Neither does the MD. They differ, but then again so does
everything else.
