Re: XL1 vs. TSCY vs. BeatGarden

2003-11-08 by K2500X

Well I've got and MP7, and vintage is already on my list.  Two down. 
Then I thought the world rom would really help add some unique sounds 
to my music. Finally I thought either XL1 or TSCY or Beatgarden as my 
last rom. Should I replace one of those with Protean drums? I figure 
most drum sounds will be covered on other boards though. The 
electronic i'm into is mostly ambient, or classic like tangerine 
dream.  I thought about getting the Pop card. But I used to have a 
P2k and was hardly impressed with its sounds...
