Monotribe

[Marc Nostromo [M-.-n]]

Like I said, he doesn't t chew his word, I didn't say he was always right. I
just think he's one of the rare guys that will trash the wow factor of
immediate gas, so I like to listen.

I don't mind limited either, I think it's extremely interesting to work in a
restrictive environment too..; but I've got a monotron and I have the
impression I went round it's full set of sounds in like 20 mins. It was
50USD so I don't mind too much but for 200, I'd rather take something else
than the monotribe.
