yeah, the MD is KILLER when used with an FR777.

put the fr into the md input, put a trig square wave LFO on the pan,
send it to the delay with medium mono and fdbk. use a few 
param locks to trip up the sequence.  also, i like the adjustable
loop length on the FR.  I like setting to to 8, 4,3,2 or even just
*1* step long and tweaking the gain into the filter.  sometimes
it just gets too loud for the other md sounds so i put a separate
compressor between the fr and the md input.
