    Actually insane. Now I want the monotron delay even more
  • Thank you for showing me just what these little machines can do in the right hands. Before seeing this video, they had sat in a drawer for a good 6 months. Now I'm using both Monotrons almost everyday to unwind. And thank you for the metal hair clip tip, it's pure genius!
  • @jamesparkes
    Marvellous. I always thought these looked like toys. I never knew they could pack such a punch. Great vid.
  • You make me want to get my two synths out and try to create the beautiful ambient sounds you made! Thank you!
  • @glenesis
    Well, looks like youve passed 1k! Congrats 🎈
  • @macks2025
    Sounds like the upcoming Stylophone CPM DS-2 (beautiful name 😜) synthesizer will be up your alley too. 😃 Nice workout with monotrons - well done. 👍
  • @Sandy-dd4le
    Interesting! These things make good drone machines, i really need to pick up at least one for myself, and at the price they are now, it would be rude not to.
  • @parasiteunit
    Did a few tracks with the classic, I've got the who set Time I dusted off the delay and Duo I think - they have ALWAYS been a solid sound source. The kicks I have got out the Monotron Classic are just brutal, rough, punchy and hit like nothing else. Even an 808 gets a good run ..
  • @hellf.o
