Re: [elektron] hey why's my monomachine box say 24 voice?:P

2004-02-15 by schmackofanz

actually the ensemble generates 4 voice chords.
6 times 4 is 24.
but i doubt that this is the reason for Elektron to claim that the mono is capable to 
produce 24 voices in their original product announcements.
Guess only David or Daniel can answer this question.
i have aenough polyphonic equipment so i dont suffer too much from monosynthism.
Its just a different way of working and i find it very inspiring.
