I have been trying out keyboards both at the Guitar Center and Sam Ash because I want to add a synth to my rig.
The MS2000 is hands down the best $400 synth on the market for trance, progressive, house, dnb, and even ambient and experimental electronic music like the new sasha album "airdrawndagger."
Many complain that it is flimsy, which is definitely true (look at the the electribes!). However, this machine can dish out every type of synth sound that you would hear in a dance club.
Stay away from the rack version -- no keys! The ivories work miracles on the keyboard version when you turn the arpegiator on.
I was playing some wicked riffs in the store and had more than a few of people come over to see what I was doing. I wasn't sure if they were complementing me on my playing ability or the sound of the synth. I am not the best keyboard player out there, but this thing made me sound 10 times better than what I really am.
This is going to be my next piece of hardware.
Peace!
