What's it saying Coz? I've been looking from afar at investing in one. I have read the article featured in Sound on Sound and it seems to get fairly good feedback. Just wondering how you're favouring it so far?

I've only had chance to spend 15 minutes with it so far, so I need to get on the case later and build some patches from scratch.

Some of the better presets I've heard rely heavily on effects and when you turn them off the sound is very thin. Then others sound meaty with no effects at all...

I think there's scope to create some amazing sounds without thinking about it, which is why I bought it. I like the stripped down simplicity.

She is called Rachel Riley, she is one of the presenters on a daytime TV show here in the UK called Countdown. It's quite an institution really, it's been going for years, although she has certainly boosted ratings.

She has excellent shelf.


I only noticed your sig yesterday myself - and I must commend you on your attraction to Miss Riley - Her and Willoughby in the morning make Uk daytime TV more than bearable.

Cheers.

For £375 I think I got a bargain. I'll definitely be lacing my forthcoming tracks with it.

Holly Willoughby is next level. Her voice is too much. It's TV hotties that make me glad I get strange days off from work.

It's all stuff I don't use to be honest ... there all in cupboards. I guess I went a little gear happy and had to test everything before I realized the only thing I needed was the 2500, virus ti, and Radias.
