Sounds like a good idea to me, although, to be honest, at the moment I'm
still in the starting phase of working with the MD, and I cannot think of
any real "must haves".

Personally, I don't really care too much for "real 909" samples. The best
thing - for me - about the MD is that you can make it sound very different
from anything else.

What someone else proposed, though, the possibility to add some samples of
your own, might be very interesting, even if it's only a couple of 100 K.
I'm just wondering if that wouln't make things very complicated - for
Elektron *and* for us. Maybe we should just wait for an elektron "groove"
sampler...
