Sounds personal to me especially when the facts are being misrepresented and mischaracterized.

Now that the shoe is on the other foot we are supposed to feel bad for the original samplers?


One of the biggest problems Dom has is public relations and marketing.

Yes some of us do understand the concept of the mediastation. Integration of studio and live performance and a lasting hardware product is the order of the day. It is not what the manufacturer makes the keyboard but what the skilled and professional electronic musician makes the keyboard. To this end, they need to get professional demos done. Use musicians who know how to play and to use electronic keyboards. The mediastation may be a different keyboard from the other manufacturers but when it comes to demos, the mediastation needs to do like the others and get a well skilled demonstrator and have that person play like no one can.

I am sure in the right hands, the T2 and other TOTL arrangers can sound bad.

The other issue Dom needs to deal with (and this is not being said to make him feel bad), but Dom should not be posting to the Synth zone.
I can understand that English is not his first language but the expressions and the tones of some of his posts would lead some persons with a not so good feeling. And it appears that some persons have a personal dislike for him and his product.

Also because he is the major developer, he tends to focus more on the technical aspect of the mediastation rather than the music making potion.


And these 2 points are linked together. You have to have a good music demo and you have to have a person to talk about and explain the musical features of the mediastation. That person would have to do some damage control because some of the posters on the synth zone have given your product a bad rap.

Although the concept of the keyboard is different from the others, people still need to be spoon fed or enticed or persuaded or what ever term you want to use in to buying your product. To most people, they are not concern with how you get there (being a superior musical product), but as long as you get there.
