Snurk! Starting gear crazes again. MMT8s are cheap, easy to use,
and easy to get. Any of a number of self-contained sequencer boxes
would work just as well. I hope Mr. Allert had his tongue in his cheek!
Before all you young dudes start slavering over the MMT8s keep in mind
it is to MIDI music what a CD player is CD's -- it don't make the noise.
And you don't need MIDI at all to play techno live. If you've got
the right gear you can play a whole set with CV/Gate.
