yup... i thought of that when i heard the price. and that's a *sixteen*
voice machine (custom ICs), *with* keyboard and an enormous expanse of
knobs. what are they new nowadays, $1900 USD? granted, much of that price
is likely due to the fact that alesis is an established manufacturer and
has the infrastructure to do this kind of thing more easily.

but as with any instrument, the sound should be the primary lust-inducer.
does anyone have both the evo and the andromeda? how do their sounds
compare? from my limited experience of the andromeda, i'd say its sound is
more raw and vintage than the evo. the evo is much... creamier. heh.

bleep.
out.
