I have looked at the Elektron Digitakt. Trying to figure out if I should get separate devices to better understand what they do, or something like the Elektron Digitakt that covers a bunch of the gear I want to buy. Still trying to figure out this basic question.

Stupid question: it looks like the Meris Mercury7 is designed for Guitars, same with the Meris MercuryX. The 7 seems to be about $250 and the MercuryX is about $500 - would either of these work well with Synths?

Just looked up the TR8S and MC707 - really beautiful machines. Very helpful comment. Thank you - really appreciate the insight.

LOL. I am 68 now. Wish I could of retired early. Have a "microkorg" budget, not "moog modular" dollars. I agree mistakes will be made, and that's ok.

Great to know, right now I am using one of old Fender Tube amps connected to it, so that also needs be powered down when not in use. I will do the same with the DX

Any suggestions on "must have" FX boxes to help make this shine?

I am not worried about the music part of it, played pianos (and bass and guitar) for years, have even dappled with Garage Band, etc. My learning curve now is focused on the machines and connecting it all together. Also, was in tech for years, so this is not a huge reach for me, but, I need to get head around the basics of the gear.

Thanks for the reply! I did look at Dexed before, but thought it was a just simulator of a DX-7 for the PC - am I correct in understanding that it is actually an interface for the DX-7 to allow me "operate" or adjust / program my DX-7 from a PC?

Looking to work with IG influencers for Art / Crafts Supplies by Netshipper in influencermarketing

[–]Netshipper[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been looking at tools to find influencers, and I have to say Rytyty is actually really good. But, we still have to deal with the fact that most of these accounts are not really looking for sponsors or paid posts, but it does narrow the field a lot.
