:)  Well it's my opinion :) Maybe I should have said "They sounded
smooth and limited in character"  Like I said they are very ENOish. The
Ring mod does help some what in creating more agressive sounds but the
synth still has this mellow organic sound that is difficult to shake. I
guess I should first qualify my comment by saying that I like the bright
punchy ARP sound.

However many of the melodic sounds on Kraftwerk's "Man Machine" can be
easily emulated with a CS-50/60/80 so it will give you a better idea of
it's abilities. As well the synths are built to very high standards
(very nice switches and sliders..but some sliders have 0 on the top and
max on the bottom!)

btw No offenses were intended...just my opinions flying out "childlike"
again....hell I wish we could all meet sometime to see where our idea's
and opinions come from :) I certainly am not "politicly correct" nor
"diplomatic" I usually see in black and white and simply blurt out my
opinions with no emotion, consideration or empathy...geeze I'm a
computer :)

kindest regards
Philip
