DSI Tetra

[Jay Vaughan]

> So, what do you wild boyz think of the new DSI Tetra?


i see no reason for this synth.  the user interface sucks ass.  no  
effort put into it whatsoever.  pure washing-machine, pocket- 
calculator.  zero gronk.

awesome sound, though i know it would be useful i'm not so wowed by it  
as i was.  i'm sure if i hooked it up to a control-surface that was  
worthy i'd be really enjoying it more.

but then, my personal direction right now is to focus on 100% pure no- 
menu/no-LCD synthesizers, from now on.  if i have to press 'left or  
right' i will not play it.  i believe a musician stops being a  
musician and starts being a programmer the moment he has to try to  
remember what 'register' or 'mode context' he is in, and well .. i'm  
just tired of it.

i know others have their ways too.  maybe the new kids and newer kids  
will love finding this thing collecting dust in their parents  
basements, one day .. can't say i really see it being more than a pure  
fiddle-fest, though.
