Scarbee is very good. It's the same old sample vs synthesis pros and cons:

Sample: Sounds like the real thing, cos it is!
Synth: Sounds approximately like the real thing.

Sample: Can be rather one dimensional - you've got a great sample of one thing.
Synth: Can be very dynamic. Can approximate many sounds close to what you're seeking (and, of course, sounds that are very distant from your original goal).

Sample: Swallows hard drives. Rather light on the cpu.
Synth: Can be quite cpu intensive. Doesn't require much storage space.

Now, go forth and let your wallet, your system and your ears figure out the best choice for you.

Que Topic: "Live 7 + Marijuana...thoughts?"
+ beer or a nice glass of red sounds like a great evening to me :lol:

some are luckier than others; to be able to partake every day, that would be the life.
Stuff I actually use.
sound card, speakers, mic, MBP, Mighty Mouse, Ableton, Reason, iPad, iPhone,Touchable, Rebirth, & other apps.
Pair of Technics 1200's, and a Pioneer Mixer

Don't know about L7 and cannabis, but 5.2 is stable over here!
no prevailing genre of music:

But AAS also built the Electric in Live so it's quite similar. The lizard comes with some effects ...
