Re: [elektron] [daniel] MM levels seem lower than MD

I can get mine pretty loud, but without the compressor master effect like
the MD, it is easy to get unwanted distortion.
I guess if you really want to compare, turn the dynamix processor off on the
MD.

Can you get it loud without extreme sound altering like distortion or 
resonance? I'll check the dynamix on the MD kits becuase I use it a 
lot to get a pumping sound.
It would be nice to have the dynamix on the MM too but I guess that 
would cost another track, Daniel?
