Andrea---did you check out the audio demos of the EM55? I was impressed!
The very first mp3,"contemporary", I saidYes! that is what I find lacking on the yamaha.The Roland drummer plays with a touch of "attitude". He HITS the drums!
I must say that I liked these demos much better than the VA series demos.
But you say that these styles can be used on the VAs.Very interesting. Are there styles on va7/5 that are more aggressive than what Roland puts on their site?
It seems like the EM55 is being developed for a different market, or at least by a different team of programmers, but I welcome this trend. Thanks for your always helpful posts.
