Could not find your link but found this one

http://messe.harmony-central.com/Musikmesse03/Content/Elektron/PR/SFX-6.html

"The Elektron Monomachine SFX-6 is a multiple synthesis and FX synthesiser
with unique parameter sequencer control. Monomachine SFX-6 is scheduled for
public release in the third quarter of 2003 and delivers a new concept in
musical synthesis and sequencing. It is built upon the proud traditions of
previous Elektron synthesiser models SidStation and Machinedrum.

The dual DSP engine of the SFX-6 offers six tracks of audio synthesis, each
with dedicated sequencing and effects. Each track can be assigned a user
selectable synthesis algorithm or FX generator. The selection of algorithms
include both traditional types as well as new creative algorithms never
before heard. Make way for synthesis types such as VO, FM+, SuperWave,
Ensemble, Step and Sync.

There is a Poly Mode to fulfil the harmonic fundamentals, or by activating
the Multi Trig feature, create monophonic textures."

They said it did not compete with sids so I guess the answer is nope.

Judging from the pictures, I'd say that they stick to the DSP platform
of the Machinedrum.

How would you want a sid to b inside ? when they have only last 100 Sid to sell ??? they ran out of chips already...

Re: [elektron] Monomachine link

2003-03-05 by lincolnlab

I am excited about the Monomachine. It looks like a throwback to what the
future was suppose to be: machines and knobs. I also like the left
hand/right hand design of the unit. You play with the knobs, etc with your
left while you play the music with the right. Plus, new forms of synthesis
are exciting . . . 

I think this is going to be as original an instrument as they are promising.

Now, I need DETAILED pictures! :-)

More strong, it's possible to play with a friend. A man on sound control 
and a man on the keyboard. Very cool for live act

Yeah. those two dudes from flash gordon video could use that !

Oh noOOOOOOOOOOOO!

This said, looks like the DSP engine of the machinedrum wrapped into a more
oriented synthesis package

Though the idea on two guys/girls playing and editing at the same time would
be a breaktrough directly on a single machine.

I'd like to see this new machine with a much smaller keyboard - or even
without.

Yeah.  That's what I was thinking.  I don't see why it needs to take up so
much space like that.  I think it looks interesting and cool, but I already
have a midi controller, so I don't see the need to add another |keyboard|
into my collection of gear.

Wait a bit, once it's on the road, maybe they'll make a rack.

For now they needed a keyboard for Elekron only setups. Remember it's a
small company, you'll have things one after another.

Personnaly I'd like a bigger (at least one octave more) keyboard to make
sense and YES a rack version.

If they do, this might be a machine for me. I'd love to build a live set
with a MD, the new Monothing plus a tibook :))

Just made the news on macmusic, but nothing crunchy for desperate
afficionados ;)

Save my personnal comments on the reworked PR.

I'm wondering a lot on some of the synthesis modes they talk aboutŠ

Superwave? wavetables?

VO? a VA?

We do not yet know how tightly coupled the keyboard is with the
sequencer. We have seen in photos that there are LEDs above every
key... perhaps to indicate which keys are active on any given step? 

I agree, I think we should wait at least until it is released before
suggesting features. I, for one, wouldn't second guess Elektron's
vision.

That's one of the uses, another would an indicator of which sequence is
playing if you can use the keys to trigger a sequence.

It smells LIVE performance all that :)

I guess the price is "as usual":
not cheap, but worth every penny.

Again, Here's a quote from Elektron about the MonoMachine:

"it's new, it's wonderful, and it's special. It does not compete with the
SidStation nor the Machinedrum, but it carries the traditions from both.
It's quite heavy. It makes beautiful sounds. The first 100 units will be
reserved for our friends and released in June this year at a special price.
However, perfection does not come cheap. "

Here's more info about MONOMACHINE from another mailing list (nord modular):


elektrons new machinedrum-like monomachine!
basics: 6 mono synths 64 steps with machinedrum like surface. 16 steps
direct access. some different synthesis methods like VO (some formant
shifting like synthesis for vocal sounds), FM, superwave (guess what..),
step and sync, ensemble.. same "principle" as the machinedrum.. FX - dsp
based. (24 dedicated FX!),dual dsp, 18 lfos (3 /voice)... 6 delay engines.
