I have a Pulsar II and i want to expand. I'd like some opinions on wheter i should get the Oasys or more DSP for my Pulsar. If i get the Pulsar SRB i just get more of the same on the other hand maybe i'll buy some more synths for the card as i have more DSP.
Gimme some opinions please.

Oasys sounds awesome, and there are only 3 things you should know about it, 1) No plans on Win2k support, and 2) Rather Limited DSP resources compared to a Pulsar, with no way to expand it, and 3) no Hardware MIDI port -- you have to run your sequencer on the same box.

If you can get an Oasys for the $500 blow outprice, it's awesome sitting behind a Pulsar!

The problem, as you might see already, is that you must run your sequencer on the same system, and that system must be Mac OS 9 or earlier, or Win9x -- no OSx or 2k support on Oasys -- if you don't run one of these OS's, you forfeit midi control.

You already know what a Pulsar XTC/SRB will do for you, I would imagine...
