Elektron Musical Instruments

If you own a RM or RS you already know how powerfull its sequencer can be...
I think in tandem with a Machinedrum it could be even better - like having a
seperate master brain for the beats.  But the realtime sequence manipulation
the RM and RS offers is really unparalleled so far - especially if you live
and die by pattern switching and knob twiddling as sequence performance.  It
is the only tool I consider worthy for playing strictly electronic music in
a live setting.  Improvisation is the key!!!
