Yamaha's newest integrated sampling sequencer - 
Synthesizer/Sequencer/Sampler/Digital mixer - all in one unit. 64-
note synth engine with 1,054 voices, 4MB of expandable sampling 
memory, and more!

The Yamaha RS7000 Remix Studio

Music Production Station 
Integrated sampling sequencer 
16-track 'hands-on' music production station 
"Sampler/Sequencer/Synthesizer/Digital Mixer" integrates MIDI and 
Audio 
64-note Synthesizer engine with 1,054 killer synth voices and 63 drum 
kits 
4 MB of on board Audio Sampling expandable to 64 MB 
Assignable Knobs 
Real time Groove control 
SmartMedia card and SCSI interface for convenient storage/transfer of 
sample memory 
Akai, Yamaha, .WAV and AIFF compatable

Looks like a hybrid SU700/RM1x doesn't it? Personally, I'd hope it's 
based on the A Series sound engine. Hope they fixed their horrible 
SCSI.

FWIW - E-mu is introducing two similar table top boxes based on the 
Mo'Phatt and Xtreme Lead sound engines - uncertain if the E-mu boxes 
offer sampling...don't think so...there's nothing at the E-mu site yet 
but there is at the Emulate Archives web site. Bears a slight 
resemblance to the ASR-X except with lots of knobs ;-)

Exactly. 
Could be a good live-tool if they do it well, and an alternative for 
my Logic Silver, if it has more MIDI-in/out´s than the RM1x.

FYI - the v4.6.2 Logic update is out (bug fixes) - v4.7 is out next 
month (new features!)

It has...two MIDI-Outs...and if the RS7k also gets a stronger
processor than the one inside the EX5, this thing should be fine.

Hmmm...interesting, but it doesn´t include a sampler, doesn´t it?
Anyhow, i wonder when other companies will start to include Yamaha´s
PLG-Boards. A Roland with AN-Board, that would be cool...or not?
Anyhow.
