Re: [elektron] MonoMachine versus other sequencers

2004-04-07 by Chris Thomas

Honestly man, screw the demos... the machine is what you make of it. And

and utterly blew away the demos on the website.. they should stick some
of those up there :P
But yeah.. just get one and start tweaking.. you won't be sorry :)
