I think there's a few people one this list who own an SU700, so I was
wondering if one of you could answer a few questions for me. I've heard
pretty mixed reviews concerning the SU700, but I've read through its manual
and I think it might be able to do what I want. However, the manual was
almost totally lacking in details concerning the SU700's MIDI
implimentation. If I bought an SU700, I'd be using an RM1x and Roland MV-30
to trigger samples in the SU700, so I'm not too concerned about the SU700's
internal sequencer.
First off, I'm assuming that the SU700 only responds to one MIDI channel at
a time. Is this correct? Is the channel selectable?
>From reading the SU700's manual, it appears you can use Note-On/Off messages
to play any of the 40 samples contained within a song. Is this correct? Do
all the samples trigger the same over MIDI regardless of if they're assigned
to a Loop Track, Composed Loop Track, or Free Track?
According to the manual, the SU700 can recieve Control Messages. Using
MIDI, is it possible to control multiple track paramaters simultaneously,
i.e., controlling Cutoff, Resonance, Volume, and Effect Send all at the same
time? Or can you only control the setting which the SU700's knobs are
currently set to control?
How smoothly does the SU700 change effects when switching scenes?
I realize this is a lot of questions, but if someone could answer them for
me, I'd be really gratefull. Later.
