>> Yeah, the PEK is a funny beast.  Im still not sure if I like it..  Sound

>>  dial

>> filter/VCA setup - for me, a "good" synth will produce great results with
>> such a simple sound, however, the PEK (etc) sound very boring when going
>> back to basics like this.

>> Clearly, the PEKs/MEKs start to shine when you use all their features

>> becomes very overpower and is difficult to get into a track (unless it
>> becomes the whole track).
>>
>> I also find the sweet stop very small and hard to find.  My demo video was
>> triggered around me trying to create a wobbly filter sound, using the
>> sequencer to introduce the "wobble" by controlling the filter env attack.
>> This task would take 20 seconds on most synths (forgetting about driving
>> it
>> from the sequencer) but on the PEK, you have a load of head scratching -
>> turning up the filter env attack and the filter still gets trigger on full
>> (btw, I completely know how to do this stuff on all my synths so its not
>> lack of knowledge).  Then, just as you get it, you make another TINY
>> change
>> to another env and its gone again!!!!  Ahhhh!!!!  In summary, its very
>> frustrating and quite slow to get the sound you are trying for..
>>
>> I think I need to spend more time on it..  So sell it..
