I think I'm the only one who thought the TECHNO board was really, really good. While the loops were dated (early 90s), I thought the quality of the kits were great. I also thought that the Basses were great too, probably more so than the VINTAGE board. If I had enough slots in my XP60, I would get the TECHNO board.
As for the loops, to me, loops are always a waste of space, but they do give you a clue as to how the inculuded rhythm sets could sound with a bit of effort on your behalf. The vibrato on the trumpets on the LATIN board were actually satisfying to me.
The vibratos do get a bit annoying becuse of the lack of variety and the fact that a real trumpet player can't play every note with the same vibrato, but they do sound damn realistic and are VERY good. Take my word on this, becuase in addition to being a professional pianist, I'm also a professional trumpet player.
The Infamous EPU.
