I have a Emu XL-7 (multitrack sequenser sound module grovebox thingy). It was kinda the first seriuos toy for my new hobby and for a long time i used this as a stand-alone but i found out that it was too complicated and time-consuming to fidle around with menus all the time and when i got my Virus i realised that it wasn?t very good for controlling the Virus. Then i decided to learn how to use Cubase (i had only played a little round with Cubasis earlier). Actually my Virus was a big turnover in my understading of music-production since it keeps challanging me in a positive maner and has opened my eyes for the posibillities of software sequensers. Now i only use the XL-7 as a sound module. Besides that the Virus has giving me far more understanding about synthesis that the XL-7 could ever do. Hail to the Virus

(i guess the last of it was a little off subject
