Hey thanks a bunch for your insight and your kindness. Your right this is going to be my new home....Here's the deal....I sold my brother my CS2x (I had 2 of them) I also bought a RM1X real cheap and after using it for a couple of weeks I've come to the conclusion that it's not for me, I'm very computer literate and am currently blessed to have Sonar, Nuendo and Cubase SX in my studio. so as you can see sequencing power is not a priority. However I really need a nice portable board that I can just sit around with and flesh out songs on before locking myself in my studio to do the real project. secondaly I could use this for when I play out with my guitar player and possibly use it for backing tracks...I did spend time both with the Casio and Roland and I'm still drawn to the Yammi....I'm most likely going to pick it up tommorow so look out!!!!!! How many of you are interested in swapping songs and styles? I know it's one thing I'm really interested in doing.... If your interested in hearing my music, even though I have not uploaded some new stuff go to www.mp3.com/mdsonic...I'd love to hear your comments....Thanks, your all some pretty cool people.....Peace
