Maybe I'm crazy or something, but do you think that the Gate Reverb on the Xp sucks big time. I think so.

I was trying to create an 80s like rhythm track. I used the individual rhytmn key effect send to the Gate Reverb effect. No matter what sound or tone I use, I get a very untrue spring reverb like effect.

I have a Roland VS840 which has great effects. When I dial up a Gated Reverb patch there, everything sounds great. There are better more sensible attributes to the algortihms on the VS as well.

Now I know I could easily use the [Direct Out]s on my XP to route the snare drum sound to the VS, but I'd rather mix everything diwn on my XP so I only have to make a stereo recording of my XP work.

The question is, am I doing something wrong regarding the Gate Reverb sound on the XP, or does the Gate Reverb sound on the XP generally suck?
