Personally it's not the dream news I was looking for, mainly because not 
only is it software based, but it's also PCI card based as well.  So for 
live use it's pretty much a no go.  Still, for a software sampler it does 
have it's appeal, not much more about it I can say though.  It just 
doesn't have enough features to make me want to jump from Kontakt (sorry 
Sean, no offense...)

As for EMu X versus Proteum, I think that you're comapring apples to 
oranges really.  I don't think you can use Emu X to work as a patch editor 
for the XX-7's, at least not from what I understand.  I got a chance to 
play with Proteum over the weekend, and while it does indeed work with the 
Command Stations, it left me rather uninpressed to be honest.  Very 
generic interface, and you still have to jump between many menus on screen 
to get results  with it.  I thought that the GUI left a lot to be desired 
in order to make it easier to use than the built in menu based editing. To 
sum it up, it works, but not in a way I thought was much better than using 
the menus on the XX-7 for editing.

Anyway, that's my short review.  :)

Or you could just spend $70 on the protean editor....

Am I the only one that finds this to be fantastic news?
