Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

For me, one thing:

I have to seldom stop the seq while I'm working.
Only required on a few tasks. Big plus, as I'm doing
music mostly live, while recording to audio, then lately
cutting and assembling the parts.

I know this was not mentioned but I'm looking forward
to the LinnDrum II from Dave Smith/Roger Linn.
Combined with my XL-7 it would be a dream setup
both for sequencing and songwriting. The LinnDrum II
would work along the same concept - you don't have to
stop the sequencer to accomplish the most editing tasks,
at least that's how it is advertised. I'm collecting money...

  Subject: [xl7] XL7, compared to...


  this should be an interesting forum to ask this question...

  i've never had any hands on with these:
  XL-7, RM1x, MPC-xxx, MC-303/505/etc

  of the RM1x and assorted roland garbage, i don't have to hear the XL-7 to 
  know that the sounds are better, and i doubt that anyone here would debate 
  me on that.

  but regarding a sequencer, who can tell me what makes the XL7 better than 
  the rest for live performance? i'm not looking to start a flame war, and 
  i'm definitely leaning towards the XL7, but if anyone has used the other 
  gear, i'm interested in hearing about how they compare.

  thanks...
