Hey! Just to say that the MD is great as a guitar processor. I plug the 
guitar directly and I can get great sounds out of it. I mean really great! 
you have to cut the high frequencies a bit because of the hiss, but then you 
can process it with all MD parameters. SRR, and filtering work great. FM as 
well. Not to mention the compressor effect on sustaining the tones, and the 
delay/reverbs you can use. You can make really great synced wah-wahs using 
the lfo\ufffds. Better than all this is that the signal is compressed together 
with the beat giving it the swing it needs. Try it, you won\ufffdt be 
disappointed! =) Great for experimenting and come up with new guitar sounds.

Roight!

hey, now that I think of it tho, you can
use the LFO's on the delay to get an FM-kinda sound. :0

hey that reminds me, do most people use the modulation
options on the echo much?  I find they're kind of sensitive
controls-  I hardly need to turn them up very far
to get much of an effect...I'm *scared* to turn them up
all the way...heh heh. maybe i'm getting older- I used
to go CRAZY with the modulation on my rack-mounted delays...
e.g. my Boss and digitech thingies.  so much fun...

anyway,

I have been sitting on this list for some time now just watching mainly.  I
don't own a machinedrum yet but it is my next purchase for sure.  One of the
major selling points of the machine for me is the 2 inputs and now seems
like a good time to join in the discussion/ ask a few questions.

I plan on hooking up my se-1 and xbase 09 to the inputs of the machinedrum.
Will i be able to route the 2 inputs to different effects and parameters? Or
are they connected as a stereo pair.

How good are the converters?  I know this is subjective.  But if anybody
knows what the sample rate and bit depth of the converters are it would
help.

thanks

 No stereo pair, you can route the inputs to different fx.

Very good converters 24/96 bit/ kHz

>Converters


The Sound on sound Review referred to them as "analogue subsystem uses 24 bit Crystal DA-converters and low crosstalk Burr & Brown operational amplifiers"

Crystal converters and Burr & Brown components are normally found in only the top end HIFI and ProAudio gear.

http://homepage.mac.com/chris_carter/files/sos/machinedrum.htm

For me the MD is the best sounding thing i have in my setup.
