Its even handy for those who just want to brush up on their chord and scale theory, as I found that the locigal layout of the thummer really helped with my undestanding. &lt;a href="http://www.karma-lab.com/forum/newthread.php?s=&amp;amp;action=newthread&amp;amp;forumid=155#"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.karma-lab.com/forum/images/smilies/daz_smilies/orange1/icon_cool.gif" alt="" title="cool" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;http://www.box.net/public/g6v2ubkvp3&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Tollan&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description></item><item><title>Initial impressions - Theory</title><link>http://www.thumtronics.com/community/forums/15/ShowPost.aspx</link><pubDate>Fri, 06 Jan 2006 11:59:48 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">b5aef35a-0934-4404-ac2d-bd9efa7602ff:15</guid><dc:creator>coldnews</dc:creator><slash:comments>2</slash:comments><description>&lt;P&gt;From initial impressions, If you backed it up with a series of comprehensive theory books in the same way that Korg did for the MicroKorg booklets (which explained sound synythesis in very easy to understand ways related to the Micro itself) then the theory seemed interesting and impressive.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The patterns would have to be explained and laid out in simple ways and all of the concepts of music theory would have to be faced. Maybe including a simple booklet on the basics and then creating maybe one or two more to explain in a more detailed way.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;It could potentially be an interesting way of teaching music, and if done in a way that isnt too boring or complicated, it could work really well.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I hate music theory and I was interested by the way all of the patterns work with each other.&lt;/P&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
