What is the street price for a QY700

Ok I hope that guy works out with a price somewhere in between

edit: hey I see there is also a QY300, never knew that one existed, or was that one only in Japan or something?

I found some offers from germany:

from 07.11.08 ....but he wants 690

The thing with the QY70 is that its sounds really good, its internal rompler is miles better then the RM1X somehow, there are some drawbacks like you can have only 6 variations within a pattern but you can mute/unmute tracks manually or just put a few patterns after each other. The QY70/100 seems to be floating around much I seem them as cheap as a 100 euros, but normal price is 150 - 200. Almost the whole Rise and Fall of Noriega album and stuff like F.Mavelli was made with it (and its internal sounds) so you can listen how it sounds

Supposedly the QY700 is the "best" hardware sequencer ever made according to reviews, I guess that might be true if its somewhere between a QY70 and RS7000, I am just looking for something that is a bit sturdier then the RM1x's, it also looks cooler I guess. The song mode on the QY700 works differently like a cubase thing I've read.

Its got sequence patterns of the tracks I made with it (Gladio and Salamandos etc. is all ESX) it sequences sampled loose drumsounds and there are 2 synth parts in it which you can play like a monophonic synth, there are some looped samples too with 303 riffs, you can do a neat trick with that and change the start and ending point for ghetto oldschool Parish Mitchell dancemania style.
Its nice too work with but unlike the RM1X and QY70 and RS7000 etc. all the parts in the ESX are monophonic so that is a bit limiting...but the really cool thing with the ESX is that you can program and record it 100% live like a TR606

So basicly I have 2 or sometimes 3 (with the RM1X or MPC2000XL) individual sequencers running so I can mix them like a DJ set a bit and it also gives a more "colourfull" sound spectrum or some shit like that. Sometimes they are synced with MIDI and sometimes its fun to sync manually.

The microkorg is being sequenced by one of the sequencers

I just started messing around with cubase sequencer.. i kind of like it.  Pretty good at making you arrange shit.

I have a rs7000 -- is it possible to dump the midi info from cubase (with all the cc 'envelopes') to it? I would imagine it being a pain in the ass if it is possible.

On the RS7000 you can load SMF (Standard Mifi Files). I only once loaded single midi loops (like 4 measure basslines, that kinda stuff) from Ableton using that, and it worked fine. But I'm not sure how exactly the RS treats midi files with more then just note information cause I simply never tried it. But load -> import -> SMF, that's the function I would try before anything else.

The qy700 has chord memory. That's always a plus. I wonder how it uses it.

300 is just a less powerful version..
