Re: [elektron] insert effects + your views on MD

2003-01-10 by M-.-n

You'll definitely get classic sounds and have plenty of possibilities for
creative work/fucked up sounds. So far, we haven't see much people
complaining about the MD since it appeared. There are glitches here and
there but all in all it is a very nice piece of work and Elektron is always
very responsive to user suggestions.

Hope this helps
