Lots of fun, with great instant gratification, although the editor is a bit tricky to master, some of the sounds are a bit thin, and the resonant filter hardly does anything. Also beware of the limited MIDI implementation - the realtime knobs don't transmit over MIDI. That said, it's good-sounding, has tons of features and can be picked up cheaply. A great little scratchpad machine.

Cheap way to get good quality classic Roland sounds, and it's an absolute blast to play around with!.

In the end though, it's not good enough to keep up with the newer stuff around, but worked well as a basic sequencer for some of my rack mounts. I also enjoyed the arpregiator!
