[elektron] Re: [MD FEATURE REQUESTS AND BUGS LIST]

2004-02-02 by steril707

who says that you want all those different changes on your MD that 
people ask for? Better Distortion and BRR instead of SRR is what you 
want, but maybe there are some things creeping into the sound that 
especially you dont like, but other people crave for... 

Will you have a switch for every function that may alter the 
sound/patterns? 

if you load a pattern/kit from the internet, will it still work with 
your new sound design, or will those be obsolete?

this, and one thousand other small problems...

i am also not completely happy with the way some things work out on 
the MD, but i realize that those won't change without sacrificing 
the "standard".

peace out,
Steril
