Any chance of someone setting up a Forum for Machinedrum users ? This thing is so deep...

It's made me excited about writing music again.

The beta has some quirks present and leaves some features I'd like to be added or improved but the great thing about Elektron is that they probably will add features so long as you tell them what you want and it's reasonable and possible. And the great thing about the machine drum is that it only requires software updates. It's also very likely that Elektron will put out new or different machines (as each synth which makes 1 type of sound is called) and maybe eventually we'll be able to create the machines ourself. The only big feature that would probably be impossible to add is wavetable style synthesis manipulation (like an XD-5) but that's why this is the SPS-1: so we can convince them to build an SPS-2 in a couple years.

I think this will probably become the next big thing in drum machines for those who use x0x boxes or MPCs. It is certainly a box where anyone who tries it and can find funding for it will buy it.

The best drummachine ever ??
