I want to give my hearty thanks to X-Mann who set me up and welcomed me even before my first post!

Although I've been reading this forum for a while, I just became a member because I drank the kool-aid. I bought an 11R bundle on a memorial day sale for $586 from audioMIDI. For those still lurking, you can buy for $625 on Amazon for now. It is not obvious, but the new 11R bundle is part of Amazon's 15% special musical offer sale. The key is you need to add the one sold and fulfilled by Amazon to your cart (currently $725) and you can check that this gets discounted down to $625 during checkout. There are other great finds in their musical offer sale as well.

Now as far as the 11R itself. It is a beautiful piece of equipment with beautiful sound. I have thus far used exclusively analog electronics and this is a new experience for me, but I like what I hear...

This forum for discussing and sharing presets, and the great members like X-Mann, were key to me jumping in -- thanks!
