"These are a great little synth and highly sought after by those in the know, it's preset but with plenty of options for variation and really expressive due to the aftertouch and it's routing options. It also has built in spring reverb and a flanger. These were built under license from ARP, that says it all."

"Our panel at SF MusicTech Summit 2011. Sadly these are only the first 34 minutes since my SD card was full after that.
We ~ Roger Linn, Ed Goldfarb and Geert Bevin ~ presented the LinnStrument, the Continuum and the Eigenharp. We demonstrated that we're now at a tipping point where electronic musical instruments are every bit as expressive as traditional instruments.
After that we go into an interesting discussion and debate about the subject with audience Q&A."
