Hi Peter,

I think Gordon,was probably trying to be funny,either that or he is an idiot. ;)
Oh yeah the Steiner-Parker filter on the Minibrute is brilliant,hence why I paid £409 for one.
I love the filter on the Monotribe too,I was thinking about buying the MS-20 remake too but the Minibrute looked more interesting.

They have horrible filters. There's no definition, just a big blurry squelch of noise. It's like smearing undercooked chocolate cake all over your mix.

Hate them.
