Re: MD - Do you ever slide? + "Classis Mode"

2003-12-22 by machinedrum99

Funny you should mention that "Classic/Extended" button, I totally 
forgot it even existed!  I can't see the point in that button 
either.  I agree with you about "Accent", which I think is a really 
cool function as well.  I've been playing with the Slide lately and 
it's neat.  The thing with Accent and Slide is that they give you 
instant pattern-wide control over things which (if you want) you can 
achieve on a per-track basis by using LFO's and parameter locks.  
However that Classic/Extended button... what's that for?
