This is the best sampler/ piece of gear ever.
Effects The effects alone are superb. It basically has the ensoniq fx processor dp series built in. You can run other gear though the effects as well (stereo). there are tons of effects and they all are high quality. (I reference TC/Lexicon when i say quality)
Sampling Anything going in sounds good coming out similar to the Emax II it really colors the sound (Some people might not like this). The filters are clean and not digital aliased sounding. (No Q adjust weird??)
Misc It does a bunch of stuff that modern producers won't need like, sequencing and Audio track recording.
Overall
Pluses Best Effects Plays sounds while saving 3 step sampling nice color to sound crazy envelope programming
Minuses No Q on the filter (does have van der pole effect though) envelope programming complicated (has macros to make it easier) only two outs standard. (optional 6 )
an excellent addition to todays software studios. Best for electronicmusic and hip hop. Akai and roland professionals prob won't like the sound coloring. These are only avail second hand, make sure you get SCSI!
ya heard! XBS
