Series IIx or Series III

2003-10-17 by Kevin Kelley

I currently have 2 series IIx's that I repaired and now have working 
100%. I love the IIx library of factory sounds as well as some I have 
aquired when I purchased the IIx's. My question is; I see that the 
series III will play the IIx library. I like the specs on the series 
III as well. How does the IIx library sound when played from a series 
III ? I currently use my Emulator III to sample and process new 
sounds but I would love to consolidate my studio. I have several 
vintage pieces of equiptment and spend a lot of my time repairing 
small things instead of playing. I am at the stage where I am 
thinking of selling the whole lot and picking up one good 
workstation. That workstation of coarse being a series III. Does this 
sound like something I may regret to those who know.
