Re: Matrix 6R scrambled no more

Glad your M6R is ok now. I saw your SOS on the Electro-Music site, but 
couldn't reply (userid/password issue) Mine boots up with the dreaded 
display issues, multiple reboots ultimately takes care of it. But each 
time I hold my breath. It's been this way for about 7 years now.

Anyway - hello - new member here. Have had a M6R/M1000 combo for many 
years now. I just redid my studio, and now have the M6R right in front 
of me. It's getting more use now!  I have used soft editors before, 
but now use the front panel. I'm old school that way.

I use them as a pair, same patches in both, detuned and panned. My 
M1000 is brighter sounding for sure. I had the M1000 as master for the 
group thang, but now have M6R the boss, so editing/passing patches is 
easier. 

It's been a while since I used them very much. I'm enjoying the 
revival.
