Agreed, the design language is a bit off...

2025-11-04 15:29:09 +0000 UTCAdding a TR style sequencer to it was evil and just might convince me...

2025-11-04 14:44:24 +0000 UTCNice work, Herr Pilz. A very impressive machine, and a good value for what it is, but I have a hard time imagining it being very friendly for free-form dark ambient.

2025-11-04 12:50:45 +0000 UTCI think this is the first time I've watched an episode and it's made me want the product in question more... but I'll carry on with my MPC One seeing as I couldn't remotely justify the purchase being, as I am, hopeless :)
