Re: Moog Theremini--Digital, MIDI!!??!!

-- It seems to me that Korg is straddling that fence right now. After years of dominance in workstations, they have stumbled a bit with the M3 and Kronos while they created the low-end analog market. Seems they are heading back to where they were in the 70s and 80s, a lower cost alternative to bett...

Re: Reminder: it is still about the player not the gear ....

Can you argue against the list of bands he's heard - unless you can be sure he's heard of all those bands? Yes, it's a silly night on the internets. :shock: But we should do a challenge. What can you bring to completion with your most rudimentary piece? I've observed that western culture seems to ob...

Re: Reminder: it is still about the player not the gear ....
