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

I think the Beat Garden rom is amazing thanks to it's percusion and 
sweet drums. Most demos I've heard from the TSCY rom sounds just like 
analogue synthesizers. By this reason I would instead get an analogue 
or virtual analogue synth instead of the TSCY rom.

the VA is a bit more expencive tho...
