Elektron Musical Instruments

hi

I've had the MD for about 6 Months now never a crash and i leave it on for
around 3 hrs at a time.

One question has anyone ever seen a weird picture come up on the boot up
screen on 1.12b...i saw it once but i only glanced at it...it doesn't seem
to come on everytime.

2nd Question whats the evolver like for Bass and drones? I was thinking
about getting a pulse but the Evolver looks very attractive.

Thanks
