I believe timeless music has everything to do with capturing an ephemeral idea or feeling, and communicating it when words don't have the capacity to express.

These tutorial vids are great. Even though I don't have a Matrix or an Andromeda, I still find useful tips that I can apply to my own synths. It would be cool to see a in-depth tutorial on the TX81Z but I can guess that its lack of an interface might make that difficult to demonstrate on video.
