Welcome new members
2008-09-06 by steve_the_composer
Just a quick welcome to some new members that have joined in the last week or two (and earlier,if no one officially or unoffcially welcomed you). Make yourself at home--browse the message archives, check out the resouces in the files section including a couple of FAQs/Tip/Tricks, ask questions--esp for things not covered (or not complete) in the manuals, etc. There is a wealth of info here (message arcxhives and files) and E-Mu users with experience to share. A couple of new users mentioned the P2500--at least one person thinking about getting one and one person that just got one. (I have what I call an XL-2500--a P2500 with an XLEAD ROM). The P2K-based synth engine and the E-Mu sequencer is indeed the same as the Command Stations. You do not, however, get the touch pads, the touch strip, a place to plug in a lamp, or snazzy colors. There may be a few other differences which I hope other can chime in on. If yours doesn't have OS2.0 and you do anything that involves midi clock, XMIX, and a whole bunch of other things, I think everyone here will recommend OS2.0. Come to think of it, I don't know if anyone recommends an earlier OS. Anyhow; welcome. --Steve
