Sdx is a sampler, and quit a sophisticated one
you have zone intelligent triggering from the pads (inner circle, middle
section and outer circle) and you can assign up to 3 different samples to
each zone (makes 9 samples on 1 pad) needles to say you need the specially
made sdx pads for that. Furthermore you can apply filtering, panning, pitch
etc to the zoning principle. So goiing from outside to the inside your pitch
goes up, panning from left to right and your lfo gets wild while the cutoff
goes up and the resonance realy freaks out. Get the picture??
Be aware, this is a SERIOUS beast. prepare your family you will be a lot
behind your kit making the most horrible sound patches. At least tha's what
happened to me. ONe day I found myself in a really tight white jacket with
really long sleeves (just kidding)
hope this helps
And yes it has midi in and out,scsi and 16 monophonic outputs, as well as
stereo out and some footpedal inputs
