"..for if you have a workstation you would have redundant equipment that was not desirable."

It's the other way around, your workstation's sequencer would not get as much use, if you're already using Cubase. Same with fx, dedicated fx usually put a workstation's fx to shame.

With a Kurzweil, you buy it because of VAST, not the sequencer or fx. Atleast I did. Pong too, I suppose.

As for the original question. I already answered it in my first post. Equalizer was just rambling nonsense (as usual)
