my motif XS was an absolute PAIN in the A55 having to upload just 256 mb of samples every time u turn the machine on.

First u have to wait for the standard OS to boot up and THEN u need to wait for the samples.

If i even had something like 2gb or more of samples to load i would never want to turn the keyboard off!!!

its embarrassing too when u turn your keyboard on in front of people and they are like - whats it doing? and u have to explain that its LOADING sounds lol

I hope the Audya / mediastation and whatever else have alot more smarts to speed up these load times...
