Look, face facts: where else are you going to get 4-bit sampling, analog and digital voices, additive synthesis, envelope control over all sounds, rhythm presets and sequencing for this kind of price? Buy one now, run, don't walk, get a reverb and delay, some kind of filter like a wah pedal for example and some distortion. If you aren't banging out the dopest low down lay back dub of your life, go home, give it up and get a real job.
SK-1 in da house!
The big front panel secrets of this puppy are the envelopes (yes kids, that's what those strange squiggly shapes over some of the keys are), the additive synth (kind of like partials on a drawbar organ) and the portamento. Swooping 101 lines here we come.
This is the only toy instrument I've ever come across with real musical expressive control, limited as it is. And the analog voices (forgot which ones now, but flute for sure) are fatter than Kentucky Fried.
This synth is destined to be your new best friend, it's in the stars, resistance is useless...
