RE: [xl7] are there still proud owners out there?

2005-01-12 by Brock Hiroshima

the Yamaha RS 7000 is pretty beefy! I got mine for
$450 (lucky) and am using both the Xl-7 and the
RS....the RS has everything layed out well allowing
you to tweak without having to use the scroll wheel
everytime.....it also has a sampler which is nice for
drum kits....only drawback is the stock sounds aren't
nearly up to par with my Xl-7 (Techno,Beat Garden,and
Xl-7 lead Rom) but the stock sounds are still cool in
the fact that they are basic wave shapes and you can
process them like crazy with the onboard effects....oh
and the filters are much better on the RS...even
though I use my Akai MFC 42 quite bit for more of an
analog feel.....

my two cents

there less than $500 US that can do what this machine
can do?

Mmmh, i'm not selling mine in the short term. I have
my MC-505 too, and i'm not selling it even if i find
myself uisng more the xl-7 for sequencing. The XL7 is
a good machine. There could be better... but why
should i go and change for another, having to learn
everything again from the beginning ? Gearlust may
become an obstacle for music making...
