Re: [xl7] Re: Uses of the MP-7

The D2?  That peace is pretty cool for what it is.  But it's more marketting
hype to me than actual functionality, which is what the EMU is to me.  I've
played with the D2 quite a bit and it is fun.  Don't get me wrong, the 909
might be a cool piece.  But from what I've seen with roland, they'll
probably put the same guts from the 505 in a different interface...
Sampling will be nice too, but 64 voice polyphany?  Worries me...
