Audio, a headphone jack 6.35, 6.35 2jack out left and right, a jack for pedals
Noon, between 1 and output Din
448 sounds, ditables not really, but the effects in a continuum above kindly give nice about the results.
I do not like the squenceur internal design does not please me because I'm used to hard squenceur Yamaha and the rest mainly on computer ...

UTILIZATION

Simple if we live of the rest of the functions are done by double or triple features on this keyboard is searched my eyes, like better to have the PC to drive (when you get there There's also because of the the galre ...)
Manuel yesh well but I prfre not use it, the only time o I opened it to the pc repatcher Fully machine as a mode m'embtait g nrateur its sounds to have only about 128 448 internally prvus, the controllers can make the PC and frankly the best software is by far Cakewalk, Cubase not good at this level, too Steinberg BMOL because of who I almost got the machine Spar ...
The MC303 has trs sounds especially good set of percussion that versatility Dance, Hip Hop, Techno commercial brief instruments and a few dishes and dpasss Mazis that remain of a good quality in terms of quality breeding and game
