laugh ha ha ha  Eerrrr  Don't put that there....
dude the RS7000 aint the answer to your problems
The presets sound like ass and it has mad timing, sync and clocking issues,
not to mention boring filters and clugey sampling.
The XL7 is a great box but if you are really hell bent on not using it, use
an E4 or an MPC or something, or sofware.
Among other things, I use an XL7 in conjunction with my computer and
everything is fine.  If you live in your computer a little more and get out
of the internal sequencer, everything will be fine.  In fact I don't even
use the internal sequencer and never have before and am not sure why anyone
would even use one when computers are so powerful and flexible.
Dude use Logic and your XL7 and everything will be peachy. With the XL7
you're balls deep in mad sound that the RS7000 aint cracked out to do.  Step
up.  If you're stuck in hardware sequencers all the time, your credits will
be rolling.
I don't know what all the sniveling is about.  If you want the XL7 to cook
for your, well it won't do that.
Now get trackin'

Well, i paid the money for the sequencer too. And i want to use it! 
The computer-sequencer never have as precise timeing as any 
hardware-sequencer have. It is especially important if you make 
dance music. Personaly i also like it because the less visual 
information i get the more i use my ears. At the moment i use 
cubase on mac, but as soon i'll get familiar with the sequencer 
i'll move into it and i'll use the computer only for recording!

I think the computer is great, it does everything for you, but also 
reduces the quality of your work. Maybe you don't care about the 
writing on the box "16 track sequencer" but that's why i bought 
the machine! And i hope EMU also take it seriously and they will 
take care of those bugs! There's a long way, guys! We trust you! 
(What else can we do?)

why buing an XX-7 then? The soundmoduls can be expanded, have the 
same sounds and are a lot cheaper...?
I wanted to get away from the computer and bought the MP-7 for that. 
I demoed it against the RS 7000 - the latter a very easy to use box 
with a different approach to composing music. I experienced no 
glitches, found it very reliablke, also liked the efx, the sampling 
possibilities are awsome but I couldn´t live with the sounds. I 
missed the basic crunchy and punchy sound ylu cannot achieve by 
sampling in my opinion. This is where the xx-7 rock, and the solid 
hardware feel sure enough. Other than that I think the yammie is a 
serious alternative, depends on your likes as usal...

Alright now. I have to disagree with this completely.  I usually 
don't post here but I had too. I perform live and actually tour 
doing live a live house thing. I originally started out on the 
Alesis MMT-8's.  just not enough memory so all the live performers 
have been kinda looking for something like the MMT-8 but better.  I 
have owned every sequncer under the sun it seems like.  I was very 
excited about the commandstations and actually bought two of them, 
one I have not even opened out of the box yet.  And my opinion on 
the matter is as a live sequncer the RS7K is way more solid.  
Sounds? yeah they are lame but the effects routing and editing is 
way better.  And the sounds on the emu are just as lame.  so taht 
leaves the sequncer.  The emu probally had the worst midi timing 
ever.  I don'y know if it has been fixed but I send midi clock out 
to other sequncers and the would fall off after a few loops.  I mean 
a train wreck.  The RS7000 has really nice timing.  It has a real 
list editor.  The emu try at that was really lame.  And the rs, it 
has storage medium.  THat usb crap  on the command station probally 
still doesn't work huh?
so take it from someone who has used both in a live setting.  THe RS 
kicks major ass and it will definetly work for you man.  Sell that 
emu...
