OK curveball - has anyone used the Jomox Alpha Base? I was an early user of the Jomox XBase09 and really hated using it but loved how it worked in my tracks - I ditched it once I got my very own TR-909 and miss it to this day. It had its own vibe and that killer kick. Anyway, I've heard demos of the Alpha Base and I'm intrigued. Just wondered what others' experiences have been, given the excellent feedback regarding on this thread so far.

Make sure you get the MD UW as 70% of the MDs magic i= s the completely unique way it samples. Seriously, nothing else out there = uses the same sampling concept as the MD (Im probably wrong but we all love= a bit of exaggeration) and the way it samples is so incredibly musically c= reative; happy accident heaven!! > > > > Paul > > London > > www.facebook.com/punkdiscoUK > >
