Well, for sure with the midi we can manage much better the al chords, BUT the final Audio OUT quality is always based in the soundbank ROM of the keyboard.

Simply midi styles and drums patterns can never follow the Audio loops..agree?

I admire the Audya because if they can resolve the audio sync problems with the Dream DSP, they really are so smart and can compete with the other brands, full of my compliments!

But is hard.. i know this well because we have fight too for manage the all 36 possible chords in realtime, with the 32 patterns..the HD SATA is streaming like crazy.

But also believe me, I have buy some Loopmasters library, like this: http://www.loopmasters.com/sampleshop/10Expand.asp?ProductCode=LMOS_21

and under Qranger we have made some styles demos for testing the system, audio loops and just 2-3 midi tracks under giga sounds..., loading the style ( 360Mb ) in less 1 second and sounds like the original library: http://www.loopmasters.com/sampleshop/products/wav-mp3/Disco%20House%20Sessions%20De mo.mp3

with your midi keyboard and soundfonts you can NEVER reroduce styles that will sounds like this, believe me.
Just with one of this style, under 32 patterns and chords combination mode, you can play for hours like a real DJ too.

for your know, we are in contact with Loopmaster company and they are really interested to produce the all audio styles with all this library.

2008 is the year of the Mediastation too...
cheers
