recording, track overdubbing and all the rest of it.

Only found one problem, and that is that the synth will not allow the one half of it

to change program, and keep the other half - eg, if you want the top half of the

keyboard to change from piano to organ, and keep the lower half as a bass guitar

you can't.

It's a really cool synth for recoding compositions and performances in the studio,

but I feel that another keyboard is required as well, before being able to play

a performance with program changes, unless you perform with one hand which

tends to look a bit naff, and gives away that the synth is doing most of the work

and you're standing around playing the odd note here and there.

Sequencer is well thought our, and actually works - no lock-ups!

The only thing I would like would be 64 voice capability.

Incidently your spec is wrong - the 01w has 8000 note memory, the 01wfd has 48,000 note memory.

the buck area. A lot of people whine about

O1's don't do analog sounds very well-

well no kidding, they weren't designed for it.

You can up load the acoustic piano sound from the

O1W Pro and play it from the stock O1FD. You should also

EQ the channel on the sound board for the O1W piano sound

as much as possible- everything else will sound great.

Ideally, I'd like my old M1 as 64 voice beast with 30 megs and 2 disk drives but hey,

the O1WFD will have to do.
