  1. I used to work in a music store in Dublin and one day we got an order for one of these to be sent to U2 studios for Mr Brian Eno.

    I was surprised at that because at the time it seemed to me like a machine for euro pop trance pretenders who would just ram raid the presets to make horrible cheesy pop hits (think "vengaboys" as it had a preset to do nearly every one of their sounds).

    However, in this demo I can hear how it could be good for lots of things.

    As with any instrument, I guess it's as much about who's using it and for what than it is about the instrument itself and I can hear lots of possibilities in this demo that makes me think it might not have been such a bad synth after all.

  2. Wierd, grainy arpeggiations & cool, distorted aliasing pad sounds. My writing partner & I called them in the '90's asking them how to sync it up to Midi clock & they said, "Why would you want to do that?" We wound up just running it sort of at the same time as other sequencers & fixing it after the fact. Somehow it was a quriky yet inspiring tool & we made a lot of money with it in the 1990s.

  3. i guess that's the measure of a good synth, how much money you make with it, how crass.

  4. I'm the anonymous that posted about eno etc, not the anonymous that posted the "how crass" comment. I thought that was a bit harsh.
