Re: Vintage Collection ROM Review

2004-05-05 by paolovalladolid

Nice review! I lack the breadth of experience to comment on the 
authenticity of the sounds, but I am personally pleased with the e-
pianos, Mellotron vox, pads, and analog sounds.  I haven't really 
examined the bass and drum sounds but based on the demo songs they 
sound ok to me too.

I am very happy with my ROM set (X-Lead V2, World, Vintage, Protean 
Drums).

BTW, I am about to sell my Nord Modular G2.  You know how it is - one 
gets GAS, acquires some gear, then realizes said gear isn't really 
necessary to one's musical activities.  I have a couple of friends in 
the area who are Nord Modular wizards/devotees - one of them even 
downloaded the editor software to play with even though he didn't 
have a g2 yet.  It's a win-win situation - the G2 is going to someone 
who can make some magic with it right now and I get to recoup my 
investment while I take more time to clearly identify gear needs.  
All of my electronic music work these past few weeks has been on my 
XL-7 and I honestly don't feel like I need any other synth right now.
