I agree with you on that also. If Yamaha would ever get off their a$$ and listen to
some of the SU700 users' gripes/suggestions I'm sure the SU700 could do what you and
us would like. If they could update the OS ROM to 2.0 like the A3k, etc. instead of
just simple bug fixes for crashes like from 1.00 to 1.01 to 1.02A to 1.03 then that
would be best for us SU700 users. I wish that Yamaha would add extra functionality
like the SU700 users have suggested on several SU700 related lists, plus extra.
Though Jay might have more of an inkling on what Yamaha plans? I'm pretty sure the
SU700's processors could squeeze out a little more power. At least I think it could.
:) Too bad in some aspects that they're not smaller like Access. Maybe then they'd
actually hear our suggestions.
