>Besides the fact that VERY is spelled V.E.R.Y and NOT WERY...
So what? did it bother you so much that you had to S.C.R.E.A.M ???
have i told you a lie about my english is GOOD ?

And if that's enough for you to get angry, then i laugh!

>This machine has several advantages over the Roland:

>- Greater polyphony
So what, minimal reduction!

>- Greater expandability
Well What is better ?? the fact that you have to BUY what ROLAND has?
we're talking EQ etc...

>- The Sxxxx Series is a definite Industrial Standard (Important when buying
>  CDROMS...
This is bullshit!! allmost ALL producers of CD-ROM's is doing for ALL
standards! like Ensoniq, Roalnd, Akai, etc....

Btw: Hans Zimmer!! ( spelled right ? ) uses Roland S-760! ( Lion king etc. )

>- The S2000 is CHEAPER (At least here in germany) (around $1700)

Here in norway it's NOT cheaper!.. bcoz hte price for a 2000 is a little bit
lower BUT the EQ card will coast $800 US dollars (!)

>The disadvantages:

>- The Roland has better synthesis (Out of the famous JV-Series...)
>  * Better Filters (Lowpass/Bandpass/Highpass)

>  * You can connect a monitor and a mouse for sample editing (by adding a
>    special interface board: $300)
And DIGITAL inn/out's !!! A MUST!.......

>  * You have two separate Stereo Audio outs
Big advantage for routing to effect's !!!.....

>  * Nice Equalizer functions on board (The fx-board of the S2k has a very
>    nice EQ, too)
The AKAI S2000 has NO EQ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>Oh, BTW: The company is called AKAI... (Silly me...)
yeah!
