Great idea but hardware is always more profitable than software.

Don't know about it being a VSTi, seems like impossible to me.  Don't 
forget I've got some Multi's in the folder area of this group too, 
for controlling various VSti's with your XX-7.  When I get back from 
Pittsburgh on Monday, I'll upload some more that I made already for 
the new SX instruments (A1, etc.).

Expert?  No, I just like it :)  If you get the Xl-7, I would 
recommend you immediately install the 1.31 OS, available from the Emu 
site.  As for sequencing software, I completely recommend Cubase SX 
(or SL if you don't need the extra features).  It's by far the best 
sequencing package I've used, although take that with a grai of salt 
as it's just my opinion.  If you're using a Mac, Digital Performer 3 
is really nice too.

I'm serious considering taking my cousin's. He bought it so "we" can make a demo. This was back in March and he still can't even program a pattern. I love the thing, it's so easy to get used to. And he's just pissin me off with it. I make all the tracks and he expects to just come in and rap. The hell with that. This was supposed to be a group effort. But before it boils down to my last resort I also wanna check out the SP-808. Have you used it yet, if so whats your opinion.

Actually from a programming standpoint I don't see why not, all the newer
motherboards support USB 2.0 - You route the audio back out through this into
the computer, you're internal VST becomes a glorified dedicated midi controller
using the USB.  You would probably experience some latency (Whatever buffer was
used by the driver) but this would be a lot like the TCWorks Powercore, only
USB.
