This is my setup.

First, a Fatar SL-880 MIDI keyboard routed to the XL-7 midi input. 
The XL-7 itself is currently my sequencer (no computer involved) and 
is expanded with the ZR, World and Beat Garden roms. The XL-7 also 
controlls my Waldorf Microwave XTk (www.waldorf-music.com - you must 
check out this synth if you havn't. It's really unique!). All 
analogue outputs of the XTk and the XL-7 is routed to a Behringer 
mixer so I can use an additional reverb and other effects. The XL-7 
only has one reverb and that is not enough I think. I often need one 
reverb with short or medium decay, and one reverb with looong decay.

I have an Alesis AIR fx, a toy which reviewers usually don't like 
because it's quite lo-fi and bleh. I never use it in the studio, but 
it's great for realtime performance. People love it.

The Behringer V-AMP 2 is my second effect processor. Yes, it's meant 
to be used for guitars, but I find it quite useful for things like 
drums, not to mention the e.piano. It's a bit lo-fi but I want it 
exactly that way.

Well, that's what it is like here...
