RE: [elektron] MD Madness - and string pads?

2002-08-07 by Eric Peterson

: Now I'm looking to expand on it.  Does anyone have any
: pointers on how to
: get some cool analog-ish string pads out of the MD?

Buy a Virus and trigger it from the MD! ;P (as I've been for the past 2
nights instead of sleeping...) I'm starting to feel like I could put
together a solid live set with just these two boxes... This is really
exciting.

Other comments and observations on the new MD (mostly frivolous):

-The buttons feel a little chincy (=cheep/fragile)
-It could be thinner. Feels kind of bulky and makes me want to rackmount it,
rather than carry it in my messenger bag with a car adapter [Road trip beat
boxing!]
-Along those lines, some nice bar LEDs would suit it nicely...

more seriously:

-No storage for single machine sound patches [or management thereof] is a
bit of a bummer
-Add to the wish list: a Grid Display on the lcd of multiple tracks (perhaps
scrollable)
-and perhaps a piano roll for the Midi Machines? This would totally kick
ass.

But of course it already does! I'm really loving working on this box.
