UTILIZATION

OVERALL OPINION

Totally agree with Adristan. This instrument has over 10 years, many advances have been made since on synthesis and yet it retains its place proudly in my set (the VA-7 "accompany" my Nord Stage).
I just listen on eg AF sounds of the Juno-G. They are mostly very good and more advanced than those of IL-7. But the difference is not large enough to make me want to replace my old friend.
No sound is mediocre. We will correct the excellent. I've never heard of brass ensembles sounding better to my ears.
I am not a specialist arrangers. I bought it at the time to simplify my life and streamline the space occupied: no amp, no mixer or monitor, you turn and you play with integrated speakers.
If I had to change today, it would only go to a station offering many more possibilities in audio, arpeggios, patterns, etc., such as a Reason XF.
