1. Are OS2XL projects compatible with OS3 at all? If not, is switching between them a pain at load screen?
2. I bought my 1K used with 2XL on it -- does that mean OS3 will work on it or would I need to enter a password?
I'm definitely looking to take advantage lazy chop and I'm trying to resist moving to the Live.
Thanks
Hey
1. Not really, you get weird pitch bugs in programs, notes sometimes disapear and all kinds of stuff like that. So can't switch back and forth between the two using same projects unfortunately no.
2. But yeah you can switch between the two OS, OS3 only needs a OS2XL password. Once you got it OS3 is just an alternative experimental OS option that comes with the 2XL licence.
I say experimental because it has no midi edit screen, so a little weak on the midi side of things. Plus it lacks the looper from 2XL which is pretty handy if you record yourself playing instruments etc. Other than that if you're only dealing with samples on drum tracks I'd say OS3 is the way to go.
