Amen. My god, what we could achieve with a stand alone, 16-track, polyphonic, 64- step, step-sequence would be incredible. Elektron, PLEASE. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. There is an huge gap in the market for this kind of tool. Ideally, in addition to the specs above, it would have: 64 steps (4x16, like the mono) 4 midi outs (to control samplers/synth modules etc) 2 midi ins (to allow a keyboard and a knob-board or return from a synth) 8 knobs for CC parameter control (say, 2 pages of parameters for each track) 2 lfos for each track, sending midi parameter data to the external synths polyphonic recording/sequencing on each track MnM-style Arpeggiator, Slide etc This would be an absolutely incredible machine for writing music and for performing live. The vast majority of the hardware and software design is already complete, and thus it couldn't be that difficult to produce. The reason I personally would like it is that I find the MnM/MD perfect for writing, arranging and assembling, but can't control enough external synths/samplers, and not without routing midi via the computer. Who else would like to see something like this? What features should it include? If we shout loud enough... Angus.
