    very nice machine with good sounds, great possibilities (for non-professional use) for a great price!

    Great sounds on it AMAZING in fACT.

    imo it CAN be used for professional work IF ya have a computer to transfer the sounds into I.E logic or cubase and ya can master the sounds to releaseable quality.

    Part of my kit is a Yahama rs7000.

    Its the RMX's big bro, has a few more things on it and good sounds but its not realy doing the job.

    It does have the possibilys of doing the job I just find recording notes on it an absolute BITCH :lol:

    Other than thats its good m8 and a worthwhile purchase.

    The RM1x has horrible sounds, but the sequencer is excellent. Sequencing wise I can do almost anything I could do on a computer. They're not bad if you buy one second hand.

    I checked out the Rolland MC307 last week. Nice machine, sounds ok too, although I wonder whether they are really worth their high price tags?

    I have this machine about 4 years... It's very good. Strong sequencer, easy to operate and sounds good.

    I discover every day new tricks and functions of Rm1x ;-) [maybe beacuse i never read manuals ;-D]. RM1x is an very good option for those, who want to play live.

    Sorry for poor english :-)

    rm1x = great sequencer if u dont use onboard sounds and efx. If you do it stutters when u switch "styles" (groups of patterns)

    The sounds can also be tweaked up and used very well if u record them into your audio+midi sequencer software and work it a bit.

    it has the same sequencing block as a QY700 i think.

    get a RM1X & a AKAI S2000... poormans RS7000 for half the price & more outs

    rm1x and a4000 is a much better option, and not much more expensive. This combo is more powerful than an rs7000 and very cheap.

    yes.

    A4000's are far more flexible and better samplers than whats inside the rs7000 and they are cheap now.

    A5000 even... been told its even better.

    but u see what i'm gettin at. an RS7000 or MC909 is about a grand & all-in-one. so if u want to upgrade your kinda stuck. where as with the RM1X & sampler option, you can change either. even intoduce a small rack or module like an AN200 desktop synth or the like. or just change sampler or the RM1X.

    I use the have an Rm1x, I sold it a couple of months ago, it was a good machine, great for live sequencing, the sounds are ok, not the greatest. It's a good machine to learn on, and especially dope for live gigs, w/ a lot of hardware.

    still going for 250 like brand new if it turns out anyone is looking for one :)
    Sequence is coming. It's going throughout your imagination. It takes you where you've been before. A higher state of mind. Yeah, you remember the early times. Now were trying to take you again. In the deepest seas of your consciousness.....Time never stops
