am i the only person that doesn't want an all-in-one approach?? such beasts
always seem to loose points on dedicated devices.....i rather would see an
expanded RM1x in the midi and sequencing approach, and additional buy an
SU200/SU300....
the most important things for a much better RM1x are: 2 midi outs, no
stopping when switching between recording and playing, hearing the other
tracks play when in grid-recording, and of course better knobs and
switches...i don't care that much about internal sounds (although a sampling
option like the SU200 would be nice ofcourse..aarghhh.there i go again ;)
because that's why i have other dedicated synths and a sampler...
maybe some kind of chord-sequencing would be very nice though...cause i
ain't that good with playing chords..
