Re: [motm] Arp2600 and MOTM

Robert,

The ARP 2600 is one of those great "packages" that works very well.  The 
oscillators and filters are great but so is the wide variety of modules in 
a flexible, pre-patched package.  I know some folks who consider the 2600 
their "desert island" synth.  I don't know if I would go that far but it is 
a very nice package.  The one piece I don't care much for is the 
keyboard.  The ones that I have played have had very stiff and clunky 
keyboards.
