Both have pro's and con's. Their own Structure. Possibilities. FX. Sound.SamDi wrote: ↑Sun Oct 25, 2020 12:55 pm Yes, got once XPand for 1$ and Air Hybrid for 4$. Was a no-brainer. For their age and price they sound surprisingly good and they have good bread & butter soundset.
On the other side I am not sure, if it is a good idea to still use romplers today (or SW equivalent). This is a 90ies thing where memory was expensive and technical possibilities were more limited. Today the better option is to use a sampler and get an appropriate library for it, I would say.
ROMplers are better integrated. Samplers are more flexible.
But none of the known even comes close to a Wavestation for Example. And Triton is Triton and sounds Triton and not Kontakt.
Btw those 60s analog Synths are loved again today. Everything comes again. And again. Especially If it has unique Characteristics.
