The data sheet will be much more accurate than me.

UTILIZATION

- The general configuration is it simple?
I bought used 3 years ago. Trained pianist, I had never touched a synthesizer in my life. The grip seems simple. It's when you want to go to the heart of a beast that it is a little complicated. Once assimilated the "gameplay" of the keyboard, it's pretty easy to make something interesting. As against the touch .... soft is soft ....
- Publishing of sound effects or is it easy?
Well, you still have the manual in front at the beginning ... Fortunately it is super clear.

SOUNDS

Sound level, it is well-typed techno / dance, but thanks to the editing can quickly do what you want actually. I use it for very different types of music (but always with an electronic influence) and frankly, for now, it suits me well. The sounds are classic can be a bit "just" (the strings are not so ugly) but still nice and usable. He also serves as a master keyboard in troubleshooting.
In general, it was hot sounds that "sound" in the best sense, with the bass very generous!
The sensitivity of the keys is sometimes annoying to adjust.

OVERALL OPINION

Well after 3 years of service, I am always happy. € 250 bought at the time, I think I would do the same choice. Now, with more under, are the series of "Reason". But to understand how it works I think it's a good synth to start (and even after there ...) with a quality / great price!

+ Bloody well and the knobs positioned
+ Sound quality still (for the price)
+ Settings quite clear
+ Reliability: never had a concern

- Screen too small
- Very soft touch in soft
- Setting clear but must put your head in the manual a while
