hi rufuss. I can't say that song is totally to my taste, but its definitely not the kind of stuff I was bitching about. there are definitely exceptions, I was just talking about a general pattern that I loathe, I probably came off a little too strong. As far as it goes, the K2600 is the king of romplers. I was listening to a bungle album once and I asked my riend "damn, who'd they find to play accordion, he's really good." and my friend explained that their keyboard player was playing it on a 2600. He was actually playing it, though, not sequencing it. I still think there is world of difference between a musician playing an acoustic instrument and a sequencer playing samples. In my book, the purpose of synthesizers (which I love, by the way) is to make the kinds of sounds only synthesizers can make. Not to attemt to emulate acoustic instruments. That's just me, though. If everyone always had the same opinions as me (or anybody else), the world would be a pretty boring place.
john. I am curious about how you think the ms2000 compares to the alesis ion or the nords, sound-wise. There is a used one in a local store for about $450 and I am kind of debating whether to get that or an ion.
