AW: [elektron] First 100 machinedrums ever produced...tighter knob action. Is This Bad?

2002-05-06 by splank

The tightness sucks,
but it\ufffds no problem because Electron promised a lifetime
knob-exchange-service
for #1-100.

I have one of those machines, and the tightness doesn't bother me at
all. The only problem I have had with the knobs were when I was
sitting in the sofa, programming patterns. Having the MD in my lap,
the tightness combined with the slightly slippery plastic knobs became
a bit irritating. Otherwise, not a problem.
