in my opinion, the classic mode is genious and one of the MD's main strengths (used in combination with individual accents per track)! i design all patterns so that they sound nice in classic mode and i can arbitrarily jump between kits and patterns for a lot more variety with the same amount of kits/patterns. I only switch the Extended mode when I'm "accidentially" using the right kit for the pattern. most of the time my MD stays in classic mode with knob-tweaking and LFOs instead of p-locks, all melodies outsourced to MnM and OT.
simplicity is king!
