Truly a box that never gets old. The more you learn about it, the more you find is possible. Amazing.
I tried playing with VSIG. It's written by engineers for engineers. I like the ability to have it open to edit, but in the 10+ years I had the DSP4000, I only tried editing and making my own stuff a couple of times... and that's was when I *HAD* time to dig in and play. I had a hard time getting VSIG to work on anything but a MIDISport too. I no longer have that MIDISport.

I am first and foremost a musician. Engineering comes secondary. I'd rather write music. =) The DSP-4000 had 500+ great presets that were ready to dig in, tweak to taste and just play. I like and often tweak my effects presets, but nothing exessive.

What is the real difference between the 8000 and the 7600 besides surround and FireWire connectity though?
