Great sound. Absolutely idiotically designed control interface (both the buttons and the whole idea - trying to save money with less buttons?). Luminescent display is a plus, but only three digits! Great sound, interesting rhythms, cool presets (3 per rhythm). Lots of stuff programmable only via MIDI, the board gives control of some 30% of this. Great for home studio recording, (connected to a PC sequencer). Single-track sequencer absolutely useless. Note: preset intro/end accompaniment patterns tend to change the last chord at their own "opinion" if U release the chord. No expansion capability.

Summary: Good sound over poor user interface. Ideal as a sound source.

Comments About the Sounds:
Ugly saxes and flutes, the rest's almost perfect

and Jani Rautiainen for the pic
