Re: new xl-7 owner, major problems

Haha, sweet man!  I am downloading it right now, can't wait to hear 
it.  I always love hearing another Live PA, as they are so much more 
rare than dj sets (although this is quickly becoming the excepting to 
the rule).  I do my set with Ableton Live and Reaktor Session synths 
atm, and my plan is to run one midi output to live, and the other to 
session.  It sounds like a pretty cpu intensive setup, but I am 
running a 1.8 ghz laptop, so there is a chance that things will go 
well :)

I will let you know what I thought of the set later on tonight, given 
that I actually have the chance to listen to it with a critical ear 
in the midst of all the homework I have to do (college life).

peace,

- Nick
