Re: [elektron] MD...Soon to buy...a few questions first.

2002-08-12 by Crackpot

I find the E12 bank to be very useful for
"bringing a kit back down to earth."

like say, you make some ridiculous bass sound,
with some crazed high-hat, and wild tom sounds....
if you play it for someone they'll think it's 
overall *too* crazy (what do they know...).  So 
what to do, is insert a nice, -normal- E12 snare 
sound to balance.

The editing interface is hands down the best ever.  very
smooth-flowing.  Some products (like the ASR-X) try to
advertise as "you'll work best when you have a good interface."
However, the the MD's case, it's more than just wishful
thinking.
