Do you think is a good idea?
the rest of the setup will be mopho + 303 + 2 OT
TO BE HONEST when i PLAY the monomachine along analog gear there is to much difference of sound…
So I am thinking to buy an A4 and sell the MnM

I will buy your MnM if you decide to sell.
Have you seen this… not sure if this vapour ware as there are no audio samples and the price is not listed…

That’s really cool !
But I started working with Elektron gear and I will stick on it…
I do not have time to learn new stuff, Elektron is already complicated
Hm, sounds like a good reason to keep it to me - complementing the analogs, providing some variety and rounding out the big picture. Different strokes, though, and if it just sticks out like a sore thumb and sounds wrong, that’s a different story.
I haven’t owned either but FWIW I think the MnM and A4 actually sound pretty similar, at least in the demos I’ve heard.

I know some people which own both of them and the A4 sounds more phat & warm ! when I compare the sound with my analog gear there is no story…
Just because of the sequencer and the midi control, i wouldn’t sell it. For external gear its powerfull
A good reason for sell it at a good price a haha ! sorry but I do not have a lot of external gear… I use it already in this way with my mopho… But the process is very nasty… the 303 I could not control… and the 606 is a drum … so as I have 2 OT for sequencing they are more powerful
It almost sounds like you’ve already made up your mind. Go for it. You know you won’t be disappointed with the A4!
However, the Monomachine is a very very unique piece of gear. For some it represents endless possibilities, and for others it is too tedious to take the time to get the depth and “warmth” to come out. Different strokes for different folks.
I agree with the post that said the Monomachine is a good contrast in sound amidst an all analog set up. But if you don’t like or never use those types of sounds, then get rid of it. It’s that simple.
I really started to get into my MNM once I had my A4, they compliment each other beautifully.
If there’s any way you can get an A4 without selling your MNM first I’d strongly suggest trying them together.

Do you Mind to make me few examples of how they complement each other?
I can also keep it… Is not a problem of cash but of space…
Thank you
I’ve got nothing worth showing yet man, I could try and record it next time I have a jam with them, but it’d be just that, a direction-less jam. I’m not at the stage yet where I can perform with them.
I struggled to get anything I loved out of the MNM but now I have the A4 next to it, I’m finding some great stuff happening.
I’ve got some really nice percussion and drum sounds of it, some nice atmosphere/pad sounds, just be messing around really. I think it’s because I’m letting it do what it’s good at, rather than trying to make it do what the A4’s good at.
If space is the issue, buy, make or have made one of the pro-modular style dual stands, then the two units fit one above the other in a little over one units footprint.
