"Of course, the notion of an all monome album is somewhat of a misnomer. The monome is simply an interface - a bunch of LEDs and buttons that may or may not have something to do with each other. There no built-in sound generator like there is on the Tenori-On, (I used a Doepfer modular, Prophet 5 and MachFive 2) and the software that determines the behavior of the device is entirely up to the user/artist. While this fact dilutes the idea of an all monome album, people interested in finding their own voice with an instrument consisting of a grid of buttons should note the lack of predetermined software and sounds is the true strength of the monome."click here for the album on The Stretta Procedure.

Yes. I remember reading that, writing it down, and saying, "That is awesome. I'll use this to name a Max patch or piece of music that is impossible to describe."
