Wow, very interesting!! But how come, that Novation is able to use the
sampled 909-sounds in their Drumstation and Jomox in their XBase 09... And
don`t forget all the Romplers which had 909 samples...hmmm kind of confusing
about all the Roland copyrights...
And I remember the TBS-303, which was a very good 303-clone... But then it
was discontinued because there was trouble with Roland (as I heard). But how
about all the other 303 clones which didn´t seem to cause trouble with
Roland... hmmm still very confusing..
Maybe someone knows the truth =)
