if you use the loop side to make tunes i agreee, but flip it over to tha arranger and you have it all really, it has midi, and most of all tight and stable without getting unwanted shuffle, you can programme drums, synths anything. control external equiptment change banks, sounds, you can do a hell of a lot of control and be very precise, if you choose to sample you can speed up production by not having nightmare pitch sessions trying to get it to fit. i wonder if the hip hop or rnb people bitch as much as the electronic mob about sampling......most of all i think it is evoluting production, but its evoluting as much as the people pressing the buttons wants it too.......if you dont dig deep you wont get the oil.........Originally Posted by The Divide
