Well, I’m gonna have to chime in with @bradleyallen here. Our perception of features we need and the requirement to work around them, is more often that we’d like to admit just something to focus on, because it’s easier to define that as a problem and imagine a solution, rather than just facing the fact that making good music is hard.
I believe everyone has the skill and talent to do it, but just won’t accept that it takes time and patience, to learn your instrument whether it’s a Volca or a guitar or a monster modular system. I am absolutely confident that whatever features the DigiTakt might miss, that could be considered essential or not, you can still create stellar pieces of music on it.
Tools are important, because we all relate to them differently. But once you’ve found your groove, you don’t need all that much to make good stuff. Getting there is hard work, though.
And listing features you’d want, lamenting on their absence and imagine what you could do if you could pan on the Circuit or if the DigiTakt had gigs of ram or if the Prophet-6 was multitimbral, that’s just a whole lot easier than sitting down and putting in the time.
