I think that's the problem that people have with these wannabe-303's etc.
as it is there is already alot of shit techno coming out these days, and
the glut of new "techno-boxes" can only add to the frenzy. i really have
no problem with the boxes themselves (some of them sound rather nice),
but i worry that the end result will be much more BAD music getting
thrown around with the good stuff.
personally, i would have to agree with whomever mentioned this before: i
find it much more interesting to create your own drums/synth samples and
really get deep in the programming than be able to get them all from one
box. heck, that's what originally got me into Ae and aphex in the first
place. granted, give a talented producer an mc-303 or whatever and I'm
sure you'll get some great stuff out of it.
np: microstoria_snd (damn this is good).
