PX-7 vs XL-7 vs MP-7

2004-01-28 by Fab Claxton

rEalm,
You mentioned the PX-7. What's that, and how does it differ from the 
XL-7? Also, I read that the XL-7 and the MP-7 are virutally 
identical, except that the XL's sounds are geared more towards 
electronica/dance, while the MP's are geared towards Hip Hop. But 
can't you just program in your own sounds? And if so, can't you use 
an XL-7 to create Hip Hop (which is the style I mainly create)? 
Thanks to everybody who replied to my posts - you've been very 
helpful. 
Fab
