Subject:Re: what, a new XK-3c???

Hi All,

If it's any consolation, products demonstrated at NAMM and Musikmesse often show at dealers 3-6 months later, sometimes even longer. That says that waiting for an XK-3c would probably mean waiting until June. Rule of thumb: No matter what you buy, something better will always come along. At some point, you have to jump in and buy something.

Regards,

-BW

I like the XK-3 - much better than some other hardware clones I tried before - but the line-out signal "as is" was a bit disappointing for me (especially compared to the rave reviews in a time when the better sounding NI B4 plugin - can be used "as is" - was out long ago) when I first heard it, especially the leslie sim and key click. Plus: the overdrive is not quite right - not fat enough. A good leslie is needed to make it sound good.
