Re: [elektron] 2 OS suggestion

2004-02-05 by daniel_elektron

Hmmm... We want to supply our products and make things better if we 
have good ideas, and can do it without other stuff suffering. We are 
not so many people, and we need to spend our time also making new 
products in order to survive.

And don't expect it is possible to do something in the Machinedrum, 
just because we made it on the Monomachine. The Machinedrum has 12 
more tracks, and thus less cycles to spend per track. The signal 
flow is also highly optimised for each unit, so it's not just copy-
paste. 

But it's interesting to hear all the wishes. Just compile them and 
get them to us, and we'll take the decision what to do. Some might 
make it into the Machinedrum, and some might influence how we think 
for future products.
