Yikes, too close to the deadline for me to make arrangements without my clients being rather perturbed.I will try to make it next year, though, and that is probably for the best anyway.Thanks for the heads-up Vikki!

How exciting that you're adding some more equipment to your studio. That is always fun! I own a K2500X that I use as my midi controller as it has weighted keys which is nice. I never take it anywhere as it is very large and heavy. That is not a big deal since I don't do gigs but sometimes I wish I could bring it on vacation to simplify composing (I use Sibelius when traveling). I will probably buy a small midi controller for that purpose though. It is 11 years old so I am not sure what is out now - but I do have great respect for Kurzweil as a brand and would guess whatever is out is good quality. I am very pleased with mine and am not planning to trade it anytime soon.If I had to spend $2-3,000 in 30 days I would buy...Omnisphere, EZ Drummer + 2 expansion packs, Voices of Passion + Gypsy (using the 2 for 1 sale that goes on until the end of October) and an external hard drive. That would be like Christmas! Have fun adding to your studio. ~ Lydia

FWIW: Anyone who has Omnisphere on their wish list needs to schedule a vacation week (hahaha). Better yet, take early retirement! There are so much many presets to play with it will take days & days to know what you bought. It's one of those possessions that you can own, but it'll own you back too (in a good way ). -Allen

At the surface level, I had completely overlooked that they threw in the "Multi" section that we see in Stylus RMX. Instead I had several instances of Omnisphere open nearly melting my quad-core CPU into a little silicon puddle. Then at the top I see that we've got the same eight slots for multiple channels of Omnisphere within that once instance of Omnisphere.What it Stylus RMX going to be like when they "update" that thing??? Omnisphere is dope (using my cool "electronica bad-boy" lingo)
