Some interesting things about how far you can go on development, but
one must ask how far should you go before the overall sound loses its
identity and starts to sound like anything else. I think for those
who own and operate these most would agree that reliability seems to
weigh above all else. The key element is how the sound of a Tron
captivated us to begin with. Everyone has heard for example the 8
voice choir time and again. Last week I decided to bring the sampler
along with the 400 and during one song got the urge to load the choir
and when that chord hit people looked up. It still hits me the same
way it did when I first heard it years ago. Yeah it would be nice to
have 6 banks of sound instead of 3, but I would rather have the sound
characteristics that makes this thing unique maybe with a bit more
reliability. Doug m400#703
