Elektron Musical Instruments

Hey, selling it later at the same discount wouldn't be fair. Us
beta testers are going to be the ones doing the hard work here. Our
blood and sweat will be shed in the name of making this a better
product for you and those to come. Some of us may even end up as
martyrs for the MonoMachine cause.
   Okay, I admit that's hyperbole. It would be nice to see some
sporadic discounts for friends in the future. I think, though, it
shouldn't be near the same as the "tester" discount and it would
probably be better if limited to current owners of Elektron gear,
though I guess for people who bought used or whatever it would be hard
to prove. Mainly my point is that Elektron need to make a profit and
throwing out discounts left and right isn't going to help them. The
profits from the Sid brought the MD, the profits from the MD and Sid
brought the MonoMachine, so hopefully the profits from the MonoMachine
will eventually lead to another product in the future. So think of the
money you spend on the MonoMachine as your way of contributing to the
cause. Or not.
