I am familiar wih samplers. I have Gigastudio. I also know my way around the XP-80, my primary synthe at the moment. I have almost filled a user bank with sound enhancements and original sound ideas of my own. I love editing and creating. I was trying to answer Equalizer's question in my last post, not continue to complain about what I think is a lack of high quality samples. I do not base my opinions strictly on the XP either.
