  1. It takes a while to learn the Tesoro Audio, but the term ‘beep and dig’ is a misnomer. There is a fair bit of info contained in the variable qualities of that tone. Is it clipped? Broken? raspy/scratchy? And so on... on a so called digital machine, the basics of the machine are still analogue, but with digital processing added to the mix. That processing can add lag to the reactivity of a machine, it also collapses info into binary or on/off, yes or no, black and white, high or low, dig or don’t dig tones or VDI readout on your box. An analogue one tone, or more precisely, one pitch machine tends to see things in shades of grey, rather than a black or white type response, and it kinda gives the raw info to you, so you can decide what to do. Between any two points of reference there are infinite degrees or notches, this is why analogue machines make sense to me. The world isn’t black and white. This might be why good quality analogue machines still have a hard core following, despite being the older technology. Older, but definitely not obsolete. Put a cheap CD player up against a cheap record player and the CD will sound better. Get a top quality CD player and put it up against a top notch record player and the record player will sound better. It does not collapse the wave form into a digititised ‘set of steps’, you get to hear more of the nuances of the music because the information is not being reduced, collapsed or simplified by the digital processing of a CD player. The world around us is analogue. For the record, i run a digital machine as well as my Tejon and Laser Trident 2 (British Vaquero), its an F19, which i love. I am open to both types of machine, but to my mind analogue is superior. That’s just my opinion though...
