Hi man, I enjoyed your video. I have a simple question about balanced vs unbalanced audio levels - I have my alesis hd24 inputs and outputs connected to my mixer with unbalanced jacks, all is good, but would I see higher audio levels if I could afford balanced jacks?

Bizzy, I really appreciate the time and effort you put in this. Even if I knew all this, because I am of the "older" generation, it is worth gold for newcomers to hardware and MIDI. No fancy looking bullshit, but the info given that counts. And that's where it is all about. Getting the message delivered, helping each other and spreading information. Peace, big up and much respect for you! One love... and AMEN.

Thanks for the channel, you got me to buy a old S3000XL (refurb project) and lately a Akai Z8 with Ak.sys on an old win98 laptop (much easier to work with), great to see these brilliant old samplers, which are still very feature packed and relevant, back in business. shame that no one has created a midi based editor app for IOS for these, it would perfect and breathe new life into them

Note - Some USB Midi interface, esp the cheaper ones, don't transmit midi SYSEX. Something to be aware of if SYSEX configs are needed
