Well, after thinking about getting one of these for quite a while now, I think I'm gonna seriously save for it. I remember someone here (can't remember their name, sorry!) having one of these along with their modular system.
The cheapest I've found this beast for is £600 from the US shop Big City Music. Anyone know if I can find it cheaper? Or is anyone willing to sell one soon?
Thanks,
JK

This is what I need to do, demo it! It's easy finding it on the internet, but I haven't seen one in a shop or anything yet!
However, Sound Control appear to be selling them now and they're pretty good at getting stuff in to demo. :)

If I remember correctly, Per Kristian told me it had pretty crappy sounds from itself and didn't allow sampling from other sources. A newer model allows 2mb of user samples... wooaah.. how generous :D

Definitely, I am myself!!! :D
The seller told me he'd ship it on Monday, and the shipping is 3 day international, so it could well arrive on my birthday, Thursday. Only problem is I'm going on holiday to Cornwall for a week on the Saturday. I might have to sneak it away with me! :lol:

Modular and MD that might be me :D

Only down side of the MD IMO is the lack of OMPH in the bass region. Not an TR-808 killer in other words. But I got both so I wont sell the MD.
