"nitpick it to death" "Why bitch" ????
keep your hair on Kurt, i did niether. I actually said the limitations of
the seq is the ONLY limitation I run into (which I think is pretty amazing)
and that being as I will keep the synth "FOREVER" (big word) that I don't
really mind investing in some extra hardware.
And actually it is true that you have no way of really knowing which seq
step you are hearing at any one time, which makes editing difficult, that is
an oversight IMO. Obviously the A6 lacks the flexibilty of some modern digi
synths. To point that out is neither to bitch or nitpick, its just a fact:
as Brian says some of the bits are addons and yeah, it kinda feels like it
(e.g. no midi fx tempo).
But the A6 is the best sounding synth I've ever used, I love the bloody
thing and like you will defend it honour, so cool off guy I'm not pissing on
anyone's baby here
