I replaced my Ms2000,MC-505,Korgs EA1 ER1 and a
digital effect processor with getting the MnM. Would I
have done it again? In a heartbeat! The MnM is the
sh*t when it comes to making up electro music. It's
also so much more easy to make up patterns with than
the gear it replaced. Cept for the electribes but then
again this machine sounds allot better than the
electribe units.
