I'm actually a little upset to be honest, since in the past Elektron
had said they would not release updated versions of their products.
That was one reason I didn't mind shelling out $1700 on a drum
machine, there was no chance it would be 'outdated' in couple years by
a newer model.  Sure the originals are not useless or outdated, but I
think people know what I mean.

At least the UW aspects were available as retrofits, I hope that it's
possible for the older SPS-1's can at least get the 64 step
sequencing...
