Sound engine is good vocoder is good... Keys are crap.... Better off getting a ms2000

yep,the new ideea of keys pissed off a lot of ppl.i have an microkontrol and i had the same problem first but after a while u get used with them.ms2000 it's more than double the money and it's not quite a big difference between them if you know how to program a synth.

they have identical sound engines... But its a lot easier to program the ms2000....

it's not so bad. i use some of the patches i've sampled because they are unique and really deliver the retro feel that many softsynths just can't. have you considered the alesis micron? from what i hear, the vocoder on the korg is better, but the patches of the micron blow the korg away.

yep,great patches on the alesis but i'm afraid is totally different from what korg is offering.

besides the keys being to small the keyboard is awesome. Best investment I ever made.

Well it only has 4 voice polyphony.. Kind of a disadvantage..
