I wonder what "MIDI" preset means...

| I checked with E.U. Wurlitzer in Worcester yesterday, they will
be carrying both modules, the guy thinks they may be in the store
by "early to mid-fall". He thought that the Proformance Plus module
would be $100 to $200 more, and he said that their representative
who heard both of them at the NAMM show described them as "incredible"
looking forward to hearing these

"Incredible". My fave music cliche.
Proteus grand RAW samples are fairly good, but have a short
decay time relative to the MKS-20...(so maybe they use some others?)
Still, the chance NOT to lug around the dual-space all-metal MKS would
be welcomed....(but does it have a good DX-ish, and real-ish RHODES?)
Then again, isnt that price even higher than what one could get
a Kurz PX with the (ahem.) "incredible" Kurz piano...????
Well...hey, maybe it sounds incredible...
It *would* free up some rack space....

Oops. I goofed, the real name for this bugger is PROformance/1. The
Proformance/1+ (enhanced version) will be $599 list.

Proteus, right? 8^) 8^) 8^)

2393.8 | Roland has it now | DREGS::BLICKSTEIN | This is your brain on Unix | Thu Aug 09 1990 09:47 | 5 |

Don't have to wait for this Emu thing - the Roland P-330 (follow-on
to MKS-20) is single space and much lighter than the MKS-20.

2393.9 | excellent sounds | MIDI::DAN | Dan Gosselin, HyperHelp development | Thu May 02 1991 11:10 | 20 |
| I tried one of these things at Daddy's in Nashua recently and I have to admit,
it's got (by far) the best *overall* piano sounds I've heard coming from an SGU.
(some of you have heard me make that statement before about other gear,
I know 8-)
It does **not** contain the same piano samples found in the Proteus.
It's got a grand piano that rivals (and I think is better than) the Kurzweil.
It's got a bright piano that rivals the U220 without an annoying ring on the
sustain that the U220 has from looping.
It's (relatively) cheap! Daddy's price is $449 but the unit could probably
be had for less than $400.
For anyone that's in the market for a cheap and excellent piano-only module,
I recommend that you check out the Proformance.
(OK, now where's my commission 8-)
