Elektron Musical Instruments

i'd love to see ANY company that'd answer ANY of these questions 
truthfully:
"I don't know. there's simply too much speculation going on. if you 
want to
know these things, mail Elektron and ask them:
1) how much DSP power is in the Monomachine
2) which components received the highest portion of the build cost
3) whether they are good or bad programmers"

on the sounds worth it, i'd say NO they aren ot worth the price, but 
the se quencer is incredible.  i'm not sure if that equates the price 
though.  I think if your'e using it as a sound module it's definately 
not worth the money.  but combine the whole package...:) and maybe 
it's worth more?  

i think the sound section is very softsynthish, with better outputs, 
but the sequencer is what makes it real nice.  

again i'm more into psychedelic sounds.   I remember the sid really 
made some nice psychedelic osunds..  this thing makes great nes type 
sounds, and c64...:)...real fun for that

hey i have a question, is anyone NOT making idm, or idmish electro 
with this unit?  

;)  

on the whoel "it's named monomachine so it should be monophonic"....  
why's it say 24 voice on the box?!?!?! hehehe....that therein lies 
the problem!
