K2000 rack version of the famous, can synthse unheard squenceur, sampler (optional), 2 SCSI ports, 4x2 audio outputs ... All t adj said on the technical specifications of the beast (see K2000 keyboard version) and jue am not a specialist in the thing. Note: 13 years APRS its release, this synth (and its revolutions / suites of course) remains one of the most complete and most powerful of the market.
One-great-regret: a little limited polyphony (24 channels).

Nothing is the same. It would be a machine that English would be more ac surprising.
Forget your reflexes, everything you know. Please visit my new walk away from 0. Even the DX 7 seems simple to side.
Planning for months and months of familiarization.

The synth sounds are all alike, on the same model and with the same character.
Brass vomiting.
String of very good standard.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 6 months. Not for long.
The facts are there: all my time trying to figure out, I could make music instead.
A sound specialist will find his happiness by spending hours and hours, the possibilities are endless.
