I got the A5000 sampler today. It's the most absolute biggest pain to use. And whoever said it was thin... you were right, and I was flat wrong. It is thin. And this would a major pain to use everyday. It's huge and heavy and a real pain, and I can't see having fun with this pain in the butt. The SU700 was a little easier and actually taught me a couple things about sampling but Yamaha samplers aren't for me. They say Yamaha effects are just so darn good. I disagree. They use the same effect engine in everything, just as they did way back with CS1X which was the most plastic sounding thing ever.
I majorly did not like this machine and the navigation is just weird and wrong.

Now I'm thinking about an Ultra.

also, the AxK samplers allow tweaking of filter resonance while a note is
playing. for some people that _is_ important.
