<< loved the little box ? Yeah I bought into the hype and was amazed at the
silly demo songs, dazzled by the usual glitzy 'buyme songs' . . . but like
so many other boxes, and synths, getting useful work from it is an
incredible
hassle. This piece of gear is a major PIA to use . . .. Im nearly to the
point of just sampling all the sounds from it into my DAT and getting rid of
it . . . >>
Wow, it's like watching someone slam a BMW for being hard to drive, I can't
understand how someone would ever begrudge the $700 they paid for this rockin
piece of gear. I love the RM1X, I'm definitely a #2 category in that I fairly
well use the 1x to trigger external as opposed to the internal sound
module......but I still like a lot of the drum patterns on the thing and love
the way the sequencer lets you join different parts together from the
internal drum patterns...down to the individual drum sound.
No, I'll truly say that as someone who's tried a ton of what's out
there...the Rm1x does what it's meant to do incredibly well. Name me a
synth\sampler\drum machine etc etc that doesn;t have it's faults. As Fboy
slim says, it's the grit that makes the groove.
