thanks for the reference... and yes I am all about the Mono! that is, when
I'm not all about the MD :-)

regarding my tracks and which use the MnM: all of them currently use the
MnM for at least one synth/drum sound (and usually several) as well as
all MIDI sequencing of external synths. and the track "theme" is pure
MnM (it's also at the www.monomachine.com site).

as for the topic of this thread: I think the MnM's sequencer is incredible,
especially when using the tightly integrated keyboard (I can create and
sequence a melody in a matter of seconds). no, it doesn't have all features
I could ever want. but it does have some I couldn't do without and it does
so without sacrificing ease of use/immediacy for features. as for the sounds,
everyone has to make their own call on that one. and I think the best
reference for a diverse set of those would be the sounds recorded at
winter NAMM by sonicstate. here's a link:
