only thing I wish I had was a "sapmpler" to use with midis...anyone out there isn cyberspace know if there is a "software" midi sampler...I expect it would be some kindof real time wav to midi quantizer???? But yeh the sw60 rocks....(especially if you bung it through a sony amp and some celestion speakers....BUT I do have one porblem with it that drives me crazy....When I've tried to Do irect to disk midi ad audio (using cakewalk pro 5) I get an awful high pitched whine "feadback??" from my monitor when playing my strum strum...(guitar) through a buffer into the "line" in on the sw to use it's "effects"...

I can only "record" the vocal and guitar sections with my monitor switched off!!! anythoughts??

so only 4 out of 5...because of this feedback issue...Although I expect it's my monitors fault!!

is the good for making Music for TV & Movies but not for Dance.

Drums are very tasteless.Imitation of classic instruments is very good.

Unfortunately SW60XG almost has no good Club- and Dance sounds.

May be only Saw Lead, Acid Bass , Many Strings and Organs

One great feature is A/D Converter.You can put any sound file or loop

in your Sequencer ( I use Cakewalk 6.0) , turn A/D on and record any

of 64 effects and any changes in Sequencer's memory.For example:

You record any phrase (Music or Speech), paste to track in sequencer.

In XG Edit (this program come with SW60XG) set Variation effect to PITCH CHANGE, press Rec Button in Cakewalk ,switch back to XG Edit and begin to move slider of Pitch .Then play it back and you will hear how your sound file change the pitch.And your sequence has only one looped sound file and

SysEx recorded.This is cool.
