Re: [elektron] So how does the MM sound/work? Anyone?

2003-09-21 by hal3001

well this is true.  but a well programed VST can sound better than 
the hardware as well.

I'm simply wondering what this synth can do that's different than 
other synths.  a 6 voice synth for 1900 is very high priced.  so it 
ought to do something spectacular. 

i'm curious to why epople are such elektron freaks?:o

i'm wondering if it'll do something amazing? i'm used to very high 
quality synths, not electribes and rs7000s, and mc505s...

i'm not really going t obe using hte monomachine with the sequencer, 
just want to use it for the sounds.  

I'm just wondering what's so much better about this than others? (in 
terms of creating wild sounds...:)

oh yea...sorry about all the I'ms!:-)...

somone with a monomachine please make me some nutty sounds!:D  right 
now i have a bad feeling about the monomachine but please change my 
mind!!:o
