Concentrate a little less on NUMBERS, and start to listen to the MUSIC those numbers make, and you'll quickly find that numbers are a game for mathematicians, not musicians...
100% I for one agree and I am all for this statement!
I have run into countless situations in the past debating the age of Yamaha's 'sound engines' (AWM/AWM2) against other products "newer" sound engines" and to me I don't care what the technology is behind it - I just want to see and hear the results!!
I don't want to start a debate about better than yours but so far all I have seen from the Korg Kronos is alot of talk about the '9 sound engines' and it all being a 'game changer'. This may be technology break through but I'de prefer to brag about what you can actually hear and achieve... Not just by what technology is in the guts of the machine.
And please dont get me wrong - I am not saying the Korg Kronos sounds Sh1t and the Motif XF is better... not by a long shot. but I am just merely using this as a pure example... don't be fooled by marketing fluff...
