does this mean that i will need a cv interface to use this devices in combination with ableton live?
or do they sync also via the midi in?
They have midi and they also sync-in socket to sync them on their own.

gotta to say meh to these boxes. i don't like using toys as music instruments. you gotta suffer to make the best stuff!

the electribes were fun and these look plenty alright. I won't ever own one, but I'm a grumpy snob, so.

Not really toy sounding to me. Only thing i dont like is the snare from the beats, a bit lame tbh. Keys is amazing.

I'll say my bit and then get out. I don't want to give any person a reason not to make music, but I have some opinions on these machines.

Ah bollocks it's just going to turn into another modular thread, but I'll try to leave that out. I love manufacturers who are designing products with future serviceability in mind. I love designers who are furthering the art in the same way that musicians are expected to. I love machines that allow utterly seamless interaction with my choices as a musician, and even brings more to the table than I do. This Korg analogue revolution is pretty false IMO. The real revolution is independent manufacturers doing some serious sh!t, and some of them very affordable, Doepfer, BugBrand, Malekko etc.
