Re: Emu ROM Reviews/ZR ROM - Piano?

2003-10-03 by robertabrownjr

Pianos are so subjective that you are never going to find one that 
everyone likes. I find the piano on the ZR ROM very usable for 
anything but recording. It does not match up to GigaStudio pianos, or 
even the Yamaha ROMplers, but I find it playable and enjoy practicing 
with it. It is much better than the dedicated 16 meg piano that Emu 
discontinued. That piano is the main reason I have the ZR ROM in my 
XL-7.
