Hi!
About the MMT8...yes, they did a black newer version... I saw a black
one when i bought mine, in the same shop, but i got the grey because
the guy didn´t had the ac adaptor and sold me nearly half the price
of the black...
Maybe i´ll post a picture when i find one...Take a look at MMT8.com...

ok. I never really liked the sounds but the drum sequencer rocks .

keep. I hook to one of my 22 keyboards or racks and write alot of
bass lines and lead off of it then jump it all back to computer .
There is a miniture time shift to play with but not to bad you have
to mess with internal or external sync.The fact that its fast and
easy to use make it a music tool.
> Remember less is better when making music one doesent want to stop
for bullshit like the mc 50 is such a bitch to sync and to write with
for all the bells and whistles get in the way.....I suppose its what
you like in the long run.But for simplicity and for getting music
made thats good fast my bet goes on the alesis mmt8.
