Well - it sounds like the ESI4000 is a pretty good option. I'm looking at
the Turbo option and need just to look into my own finances to work out the
details. It comes standard with a lot of goodies that other "competitors"
just can't compete with in that price range. I have heard people say "go for
the a3000!" but the only reasons they say that are for the FX and ease of
use. Having mucked with a Korg N364, interfaces don't phase me. Emu seems
to get props for the best sound characteristics and through a SCSI port, a
Zip drive, 16m ROM standard, all those outs as well a huge sound library
(bigger than Akai and way bigger than Yamaha). With the money I save, I
could get a CD-Rom to throw on it. To do that to an A3000, you are looking
into the $2k (US) range, unless you can find one used and I've never seen one
used. Lots of S2000's though. Wonder why? Looking forward to hooking it up
the RM1X.
