[NM] NM>G2

[Per Wikström]

I run the G2 and NM Classic together. It is not only the spectral oscillator
that make the NM a better machine in some reasons, the filter sweeps has a
harsh power that I miss in the G2. And there are many good Karplus Strong
sounds made with the delay line of the NM. The ready made Karplus Strong
module in G2, The string oscillator, acts quite different.

But I have run into another problem: The NM editor and the G2 editor do not
like each other. If both are open on the same time, one of them gets locked.
It is an annoying bug. With midi connection they can act as one big virtual
synth, so it should be possible to patch in both machines at the same time.

Of course the great thing about the G2's midi output is that these  
machines can work in harmony, it takes a bit more effort and  
creativity but you can essentially use the NM as an external bank of  
spectral oscillators.
