Aye laddie, that's the ticket, the trick is to run the small stone on a lower power setting, i run mine at 7.5V, but i can also use it a 6V, for slower sweeping.

It won't give you the 'exact' sound, for that you need the Eminent 310U, to really nail it.

Do any other workstations offer this feature? Being a Motif user I'm (blissfully?) unaware of what Fantom, Triton, Oasys, M3, etc. offer. The Fantoms allow you to create your own user arpeggios up to 16 steps in length (step-time recording) and each note can have a different velocity setting, in es...

and remember the CR68/78 were 12ppqn and only had clock-in jacks too.

Dots? you mean those little dots in a star shape - read the manual page 15

Kits that are not associated with any pattern are distinguished by a little star (those little dots) after the kit name.

They cannot be deleted.

however, I have little experience with buying monitors, and hope for some advice. anything else I should look for/consider getting? I am hoping to minimize the amounts of gear, and I am pretty sure I'll get my bass needs from a future Voyager RME, and more "round" sounding poly sound from a Virus o...

I've had it with MFB gear... I bought a Kraftzwerg in the summer and it never worked, the thing was totally borked! Think i will hold out for doepfer's Dark Time sequencer and Dark Matter expansion module, of course i have to buy a Dark Energy first :lol: Of course, new gear is always interesting to...

you mean you erase everything even the samples. what did you do loaded with the samples from those vintage synths. My Fantom-Xa didn't come loaded with vintage synth samples, it came loaded with shitty rap-crap and r n' b vocal samples, so that lot had to go. For vintage synth stuff you have put in...

If your using a midi-thru box ie: 1 x midi in to 5 x midi outs, you will need to assign a different midi channel to each instrument, or else you will get midi-sync problems, or nothing sync'n at all.

Why can't you use the Machindrum as the master clock, it has rock solid timing?

I use a fully Expanded Fantom-Xa, gives me all the sounds i need. I don't use the presets on it though, not even as sound building blocks. I erased the entire user area and built my own user sounds from scratch. Now i have 256 user slots of everything from Elka Rhapsody's to pin sharp Moog leads to ...

Well, the buchla looks a lot nicer than all that digital c**p balma owns

What you are describing could be the beige coloured Hohner String Vox (Which is really a re-badged Elka Rhapsody 490) sold under Hohner for the international market.

I do know there is also talk of Doepfer doing a expansion module for the Dark Energy called Dark Matter which will have noise, second VCO, second envelope, multimode VCF, S&H, VCLFO with reset, attenuators and some more functions. Statement from Dieter Doepfer "The Dark Time is still in the design s...

SK-50? that's a Yamaha YC-45D by the looks of it.

Looks like next-year is going to be a year of step-sequencers!
