Why not buy the VS 700R only?

Post by softice »

Hi

Wonder why not anyone talks about buying/using the VS 700R as a vst sound module or audio interface? ??

No need to buy the whole V studio 700, just the rack unit.

As for me i just ordered the VS 700R only. Cakewalk suppert told me there was no need to buy the controller to be able to use it as a sound module.

The benefit for me is beeing able to use it as any other vst on my PC but without taxing my cpu at all. Now my entire set-up can be saved within Sonar. That include my Virus TI Polar and Receptor too. In addition i needed a new audio interface . And then theres the extra ARX slot of course.

So why the little interest in this Roland Synth? Doesnt anyone know one can buy it seperatly at much lower cost than the whole v-Studio 700 package? ?? Or is it the lack of an additional ARX slot that bugs people? I dont know.

If anyone interested there is a new review of the V-studio 700 at soundonsound.

Interesting. I didn't know it was possible to run the module seperately. Thanks for the heads-up, I'm going to have to check out that review. Once you get it, let us know how it works for you.
