Florian, so you must have an early GR-1?  The shipping has not started =
over here yet. Looks interesting.

Hello,

first of all: the Hartmann Neuron was available later as VSTi Plugin =
which again later has become freeware for Mac. But I find a lot of =
comments, that it was quite tricky to get the plugin really running.

That is a quite reasonable approach. Its the main reason, why I didn't =
buy nearly any new synths in the recent years ("new" in the sense of new =
technology - of course I suffered G.A.S. and bought "old" synths).

There are only two which made me think, they could last:
The Mutable Instruments Elements - ok, not a full synth, but the module =
is nearly complete.
And the Tastychips GR-1. The GR-1 is a kind of one trick pony, but this =
trick is really amazing for me. I did not work with samples in the last
15 years (while I was deep into samplers in the 90s), but the GR-1 got =
me back into using samples again.
