I'd still like to hear a MB/sec figure on loading Akai (is that samples or whole multisamples?) and .wav files. For an arranger player, speed is the MOST important consideration, with the 'any song, any time' ethos we have. You can't load everything up in advance you need, because, if you are in a request type scenario, you don't KNOW what you'll need...

AJ?

And thanks for your comment. Some people just don't get it. Geeks don't buy arrangers. MUSICIANS buy arrangers.
