Been very busy. But I now have 3.6, and I'm very happy with the new features.

I have to admit that at this point, while I lust after a Force 2, I look back at what it was when I bought it and it's like a new machine already.

True, and welcome back!

And by the way, are you a Dutchman? I am anyway.......

Welcome back!

I feel the same way about the Force feeling like new machine, but do hope a mk2 or something like an MPC-X comes out. The
MPC seqs let's us have 128 independent arranger which saves me a lot of time from using the tedious workarounds for only having 1.

The Scene Follow Actions are very help & should've been there from the start. Plus, now we can get the all the same plugins as the MPC.

Maybe we need a Force-X, with tilting screen, updated hardware, more I/O and more Q-links...

I have dutch heritage, but not dutch citizenship. I do read high and low dutch (old terms for Hochdeutsch and Nederlands) but to the EU I'm an evil foreign menace.

.... Evil Foreign Menace is a great name for a dark trance artist ...

I think X-Force sounds better & Evil Foreign Menace would be a great artist/song/album name!

I would buy an X-Force.

I would actually contemplate acts of very questionable legality to obtain the money to buy an X-Force.

This thing needs to exist.

Does any of these acts contain Asian prostitutes & do you need a willing accomplice? :lol: :nod:

Yes. I mean no. Maybe.

The candidate will not answer any more questions today, and thank you for coming to his X-Force presentation.

Speaking of X-Force, has anybody here had a chance to compare the latest Force software with the latest MPC software?
