SP505 or 606?

[treezy z]

i've tried 404sx, 303, 505, 606, 505 is my favorite.

i'm actually selling my 404sx, have another 505 on the way. at this point i'm gonna stick with that, it's a great machine. (i also combo every SP with zoom sampletrak to make up for no pitch/ugly SP timestretch i don't use)

606 would be better except for 2 things:
1. the sound isn't quite as good and
2. chop is TERRIBLE imo. you have to do each chop seperately or use the generally useless autochop. on the 505 you chop everything at once, and can preview before you chop. the 606 chop takes me maybe 20 minutes for a fairly simple sample, the 505 chop under 5. the mark style chopping on the 303 and 404 is similarly much faster for me than 606.
