i want to know if the upgrade to the 4000 from the 2000 xl really worth the extra money? Also what are the pros and cons?

man, i'ma do that too.. tell u why:
Cuz we can do it all from there!!!!
- USB Port (makes it all SO SIMPLE: storage, data transfer with your PC/Mac, External usb hard drive (40, 100, 300GB)
- Built in effects
- I'll get the 8outputs as well

I see it like a 2kxl with all the gadgets i needed.. really. check the specs and see if it fits your needs. if it does ( and it does fit mine ) go get it. I'm tryn to sell mine, but even if i don't, i'll get it the same way!

Full Z8 sampler

Mults/Programs with not just drums programs 128 but Keygroups that automatically layout the pitchs/ program modulation pages that can effect in realtime 64 total. Samples are up to 96kHz or downsample to 8 bit Faster and more powerful Sample editing with resampling in the sample page with quick effects or you can resample your sequence into a wav file.

Built in Midi controller Q-Link to control the internal and external sampler parameters, effects, control changes, and pad levels, pans, cutoff, and etc. A built in midi sequencer in the Qlink mode to apply the modulations in 1/8 to 1/64 timings along with your sequencer. The Sequencer is bigger, and the mode buttons are individual so less window button pushes to get to submenus.

I could go on and on as an ex-2xlK user but the best way to learn is get the manual for both I still have my 2xls with the 4k and sit them side by side and compare. I could never go back to a 2xlK.

I want a 4000 too but I refuse to give up my 2000XL to get it so when I decide to get it I will have my XL too.
