Subject:Re: VR760 plus SRX board
Hi Carl,
I beg to differ on a few of the specs you mentioned on the
VR-760 and SRX-07 board. I owned the VR-760 and SRX-07
board for about 1 month and it didn't work for me overall - but
personal tastes aside, I have a question:
My question is:
You said that "any of the sounds from the SRX07 board can be
routed through any of the on board FX, the knobs in the synth
section all effect the sounds as does the pitch bend. "
Are you sure about this? Unless they have changed the specs
on the keyboard, expansion board sounds are routed into the
synth section and ONLY have the features and parameters
available to the synth section available to those sounds, which
means very little. Pitch bend -yes, synth knobs - yes, but not
effects.
When I owned mine, I absolutely could NOT use any of the
effects in the piano or organ section with the expansion sounds.
In fact, I couldn't even turn off the reverb on the SRX piano
sounds - and some of the patches were completely washed
with reverb.
Am major reason why I returned it.
I went through the manual front to back and went through every
parameter in the keyboard many times, and this was definitely
the case with the VR-760 I owned. In fact, why the synth section
doesn't have access to the parameters in the piano section is a
bit baffling.
Your thoughts???
Cheers,
