Honestly, the exs24 can *easily* replace a vanilla sampler as S1000 or
S3000,
but not a K2000... Deep synthesis is not the target of the exs...

Same over here for a S3000xl and K2000RS.... problem is I'm afraid to sell them
'cause EXS is software so you're never "safe". And clients might prefer to "see"
the machines, even though we don't use them anymore. :)

You bet! it sounds cleaner, it's much more fun to work with etc etc... and it's
cheaper!!!!

Very true, but the K2000RS is a difficult machine to work with. It has GREAT DSP
power for which I love it, but it's no "production" sampler where you can
quickly load samples and work.

An EXS clone for a Kurzweil would be great, but that would probably be too big
and too CPU consuming.

Bye,
Joeri
