The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

For studio use, software sampler. For Live performance, go with hardware.

  Subject: [AN1x-list] sampler or computer


  Well I rarely post to the list but I am always reading and what not.  This post really isn't about my wonderful AN1X but it might have some impact on it.  I am looking into getting a sampler and debating between getting an actual hardware sampler.  Thinking of a esi 4000 or 2000, something along those lines.  Or if I should just build a computer dedicated to audio.  And use some sampling programs and also use it to sequence.  I will most likely and hopefully be using this set up live and it will have the An1x, a akai ax73 and in time a drum pad system running in/out of it.  I think a computer would be a more useful way to go but I really do like hardware better...easier to use, less crashes....more buttons... but also more money which I don't have.

  So if any of you have any suggestions...I am open for ideas.

  TIA,
  Jake
