Elektron Musical Instruments

Re: Elektron is very quiet lately..... but not as quiet as my VO-6 
synth...

If they're really going to have OS 1.0 together by December, then 
they do have much to do.  They're definitely getting there.  I would 
push the release date back before I would let someone from SOS review 
the MnM in its current state.  They're pretty fussy about bugs in the 
OS.  Plus, the glowing Chris Carter SOS review is what convinced me 
to buy the MD.

I have a question on the Digipro synth.  Using WP and WPM seems to 
introduce a lot of digital clipping or maybe it is just non-zero 
crossing loop points?  This is especially noticeable on the lower end 
of the keyboard.  Is this intended?  It certainly makes it sound 
digital (both of these artifact types are pretty much unique to 
digital sound).

Also - will it be possible program chords for the arpeggiator?  It 
knows what to do with chords when you play it live... it would be a 
shame to not be able to sequence this.  Especially with the SID arp, 
which seems to require a chord input.  Being able to record chords 
does not necessitate the mono-machine being able to play them.

One other comment on chords.  It would be great if there was a global 
parameter for note-priority.  It is currently low note priority like 
many Moogs.  It would be nice to be able to set it to high note and 
last note priority.
