Re: XL7 FOR SALE OR SWAP RS7000 UK

2002-02-27 by deephousesouldier

Alright now. I have to disagree with this completely.  I usually 
don't post here but I had too. I perform live and actually tour 
doing live a live house thing. I originally started out on the 
Alesis MMT-8's.  just not enough memory so all the live performers 
have been kinda looking for something like the MMT-8 but better.  I 
have owned every sequncer under the sun it seems like.  I was very 
excited about the commandstations and actually bought two of them, 
one I have not even opened out of the box yet.  And my opinion on 
the matter is as a live sequncer the RS7K is way more solid.  
Sounds? yeah they are lame but the effects routing and editing is 
way better.  And the sounds on the emu are just as lame.  so taht 
leaves the sequncer.  The emu probally had the worst midi timing 
ever.  I don'y know if it has been fixed but I send midi clock out 
to other sequncers and the would fall off after a few loops.  I mean 
a train wreck.  The RS7000 has really nice timing.  It has a real 
list editor.  The emu try at that was really lame.  And the rs, it 
has storage medium.  THat usb crap  on the command station probally 
still doesn't work huh?
so take it from someone who has used both in a live setting.  THe RS 
kicks major ass and it will definetly work for you man.  Sell that 
emu...
