Re: [xl7] PX-7 with A5000

2011-01-07 by James Ulibarri

I got the A5000 sampler today. It's the most absolute biggest pain to use. And whoever said it was thin... you were right, and I was flat wrong. It is thin. And this would a major pain to use everyday. It's huge and heavy and a real pain, and I can't see having fun with this pain in the butt. The SU700 was a little easier and actually taught me a couple things about sampling but Yamaha samplers aren't for me. They say Yamaha effects are just so darn good. I disagree. They use the same effect engine in everything, just as they did way back with CS1X which was the most plastic sounding thing ever. <br> I majorly did not like this machine and the navigation is just weird and wrong. <br><br>Now I'm thinking about an Ultra. <br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jan 3, 2011 at 6:17 PM, Atom Smasher <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:atom@...">atom@...</a>></span> wrote:<br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"> <span> </span> <div> <div> <div> <p></p><div class="im">On Mon, 3 Jan 2011, Greg W wrote:<br> <br></div><div class="im"> > A series are great but they dont beat the CS engines<br></div> =============<br> <br> also, the AxK samplers allow tweaking of filter resonance while a note is <br> playing. for some people that _is_ important.<div class="im"><br> <br> -- <br> ...atom<br> <br> ________________________<br> <a href="http://atom.smasher.org/" target="_blank">http://atom.smasher.org/</a><br> 762A 3B98 A3C3 96C9 C6B7 582A B88D 52E4 D9F5 7808<br> -------------------------------------------------<br> <br></div> "The only inherent sin in society lies in hurting others<br> unnecessarily.
