Triton rack vs vx5050 rack

delano517 · 8th August 2006

I have a choice but cannot decide. Does any know if the 5050 sounds as good as the 5080? I like triton sounds and I also like roland sounds but can only get one.
I have a few emu modules and their whole sound collection on the emulator x2
. What one will compliment my setup better?

The 5050 is the same engine as the 5080.

Do you really want another rack synth? Unless you're gigging, I'd switch to software with some outboard to "sweeten" them. I just find everything more versatile and easier to program/edit/tweak. Or even if you're gigging -- a nice laptop or iMac can be the perfect fit on the road.
