OK, first off, let me say I have no interest in being told which sampler is objectively better. I know different people have different opinions and work better with different machines, and so I want to draw from people's subjective impressions of these machines to determine what *might* be appropriate for me. Frankly, either of them would be a major step up at this point (I'm using an expanded Akai S2000.)
So here's some pros of the two machines. Yamaha A5000 * Lots of good effects * Internal resampling * More sophisticated breakbeat manipulation * KNOBS! Emu E5000 Ultra * Cheaper * Internal sequencer (useful!) * CORDS (sounds neat) * More expandable Basically, I can go either way. I guess my main criterion is tight MIDI timing, although this isn't something the promotional literature is going to tell you. Anyway, any comments would be welcome. -- T.W.I.D.N. * http://www.nr.infi.net/~tagutcow/twidn.html --- Drum&Bass Arena Producers Discussion List http://www.breakbeat.co.uk You are currently subscribed to dnb-prod as: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
