This is a great synth, however, Ensoniq needs to do something about their quality
control. I went through four keyboards before I got one that worked. I had a
whole range of problems from not being able to edit the end time of a sample to
to a faulty screen, to old samples getting stuck in RAM so that new samples were
tweeking out with old sounds that had been deleted from memory. It's a drag that
the jazz drive has a formatting conflict with the keyboard. I used a Bernoulli
230 meg drive to record on and it was the biggest crash prone piece of shit.
I'm definitely not impressed with all of the hoops one has to jump through to use
the audio tracks to record real time, song length performances. Bouncing is a pain
in the ass, and often times does'nt even work. My drive ate a bass track that
dissapeared into oblivion. This is a great machine, but if you bought it with the
hope of being able to do real full fleged performances on it without a deck, your
living a pipe dream. Who wants to bounce every time a new track is layed down.
Mixing as you go is impossible.
