XI vs XA sequencer

[rubez]

it seems everyone says the JDXA sequencer is gimped or is shit.

is the JDXI sequencer better? (i have a JDXI)

if so, what makes the JDXA sequencer WORSE?

thanks.

Simple: You can't switch sequences or patches during playback. You need to stop the sequencer, switch to the next patch, and then hit play.

This makes it extremely limited when compared to the JD-Xi ability to use the "favorites" features and switch sequences during playback.
