Analogue-style editor for Yamaha DB50XG, SW60XG and MU10. Uses the 'hidden' Yamaha QS300 mode to give youtwice the power of the basic XG voice. 2xOscillators,2xLFO's, 6xEnvelope Generators per voice. Saves andloads QS300 presets, effects banks and sequences. Lookslike a Prophet V synth. Includes Arpeggiators andAnalogue Step Sequencers. Saves and loads MIDI and SYXfiles. Real wood finish and custom knobs</blockquote>

The DB50XG and SW60XG are discontinued, but the SW1000XG (also discontinued) has been popular in the professional music industry, and many of Yamaha's amateur and professional keyboards implement either XG or a subset, known as "XGlite".</blockquote>

• Mediatrix cleverly integrates a DB60XG card (effectively a DB50XG with added analogue input), with its own full-duplex recording circuitry, into the Audiotrix card. Users of the 3DXG can thus have those Yamaha sounds from day one</blockquote>

• I doubt if I need to make any comment on the XG MIDI sounds -- I've been using these on my DB50XG for two years now, and have yet to hear a soundcard chipset that sounds better. </blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0.8ex; border-left-width: 1px; border-left-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-left-style: solid; padding-left: 1ex; ">
• It's a clever idea to incorporate the Yamaha DB60XG into the design of the 3DXG, and this gives very good on-board synth sounds, as well as an excellent three-tier effects system. The overall sound quality is good, and in line with the deluxe consumer description that I used at the start of this review. If you want a soundcard with great synth sounds and excellent effects, and want to use it for occasional games, this would be a good but slightly expensive choice. If you want a card primarily for music, you may find yourself disabling many of the same features that endear it to games players -- the FM synth, joystick port, and so on, which leaves you with an XG synth and stereo WAV recording and playback through the XG effects. This, in essence, is what the forthcoming Yamaha SW1000XG will do (albeit with more effects and WAV channels, plus higher sound quality, but at a significantly higher price).</blockquote>

• Get your SW1000XG out of the dust pile or out of the loft becuase the darn thing works under windows 7. </blockquote><div><br></div>Niels<br><a href="http://nielsmayer.com">http://nielsmayer.com</a><br></div></div></div>
