THank you very much viva hate. Yes, UW. I'm slowly starting to add the nord into the mix, and I must say it's amazing. Adds a whole new dimension to it. Getting better with the patterns too.

That is an idea, yes. I have no sampler though and no money to get one until then, and ultimately if I'm going to do this I could as well use ableton coupled to the machinedrum (which is definitely where this is going).

THanks for the kind words :) I will try to not lose focus. On the other hand, I really want to make a tighter set. I have one set with just the machinedrum which goes down quite well with the crowd, and I have tremendous fun playing it, but I just want that more technoey feel, which involves having ...

don't worry measax, I won't lose my identity, this undertaking is geared specifically at understanding those rules and being able to follow. I can always come back to my "style" when I'm done with that

Yap really cool. I'm starting to getting the hang of bleeps and recording weird stuff. I'll keep you updated
