Should I wait or just pick up an MD?? 10 Years, 10 Months ago
Hey all,
I'm loving my OT!
And am thinking about picking up an MD SpS1MK2.
...but it was realeased a few hers ago now, I'm feeling like a new drum machine might be put out...
I'm currently playing the OT and Spectralis2 in a duo with my partner running synths (Korgs ans Roland's). I could easily add more layers and am loving working with live sequencers.
........so should I wait for a bit or just pick up the standard MD?!

Why not go to a shop first and play with one to see if you like it or not?

I have to order elektron gear, no local shop stocks them.
I know I'll like it... Just feel like a new drum machine might turn up soonish.
I just sold a bit of gear (oberkorn) and am ready for a new addition.
The SPS1MK2 is a good price right now.

Probs a no brained right, just wondered what others thought a possibility of a new drum machine from Elektron

Sure, that's what I figures
Not a tempest, a standard digital MD sps1MK1!
Cheers

How about buying a cheap and fun option like the new KORG VOLCA Beats while you wait for elektron to come out with their new drum machine?

good to know
That's exactly what I was wanting to discuss...
I thought a new MD might be round he corner (ish)
If not ill just grab a classic MD not the UW.

The price just jumped up in Australia
Anyone selling one?

I find that once you load in a pile of 64 sample chains, the OT is kind of the best drum machine ever... you don't really need anything else.

I thought Elektron recently hinted at the end of the MD.

I'd say if you can afford to wait a while then do so.
