el hombre its so much fun isn't it, it does need time I am finding thouhjh - certainly not instantly gratifying ex cept for the obvious bass and leads, ive found that there is waaaaaaaaay more going on than what I thought initially, those FM sliders respond to very very small movements and there are so many secrets. must have spent 10 hours on it already programming from hi-hats to sick pads

I found this video on YT last night made for the original, its like 40 minutes long as is the recording from the tape they used to supply with the unit - they also used to supply pedals with the synth can you believe that? (seeing as Korg were staying true to the original I wish they had have supplied pedals ;-) )

anyway -it has some cool stuff in it - - if you wish to see the subtle nuances anyway, they cover all the basics like trumpets, percussion etc right thru to leads. I always wondered why the hell they would show how to make trumpets and stuff like that but then I was shocked at how it will do them, minor adjustments make lots of instruments, having a pedal or something to simulate allows for variation as well, I used my microbrute lfo out put last night to some degree

Damn, Jamie, definitely gonna have to check that out tonight! It's amazing how much deeper this synth is than I thought it was for the first few days of tinkering on it. I've got a gig tonight that I'm tempted to use it for but I don't think I'm quite ready to bust it out live yet. Definitely in the next week or two though.
