Elektron Musical Instruments

Hi,

Anyone who feels that sharing their hard work is somehow a bad idea should consider the following....

If you have a good 909 sound, why not share it, as it's too easy to get the original samples anyway, so you lose nothing..

In a sharing culture, everyone benefits and everyone who can contributes... what a nice idea =0)

If you think that wont work, have a look at the Nord Modular mailing list... It can be done!!

As a side issue... it seems really odd that anyone can say they can't get good hats from this box. There are several starting points for cymbals, and experimentation with these provides a wide range of sounds. It is a sad world where everyone gets locked into the same sounds, thinking that there is no alternative. The 909 kick and hats rock a dance floor (or used to..?), but there is a huge world of music (dance or otherwise) where the 909 is not used, and the beats still kick ass! My own view is that the almost religious dedication to the slowly rotting past of dance music is infecting the present and helping a once vibrant genre to poison itself by auto-cannibalism.

Having said all that, I'd still like to see the 909 hats in the MD, just because studio clients always ask for them...

Peace and love to all this Christmas
