Anybody compared the two for grid and step recording? Which one works smoother and permits monitoring your current steps while programming so that you don't have to listen to the whole pattern. What about Roland's new SP-606 or 505? Thanks, Danijel

Grid mode on the Rm1x is broken - it can't play sounds from tracks other than the one that is being edited. Nor can you switch in and out of record on the fly. The XX-7 does both of these things very easily. The SP's are phrase samplers with very rudimentary sequencers (the SP-606 has only 4 tracks and 18,000 notes, versus 16 tracks, 32 channels, and 300,000 notes on the XX-7). None of these is a match for the Command Stations.

Not a match, but maybe a nice compliment to them. rEalm None of these is a match for the Command Stations. Yahoo!

I use an XX-7 and an RM1x and crossfade between them like two decks... the result is 1000x better than either of them on their own. A case of the sum being more than the parts. Stu
