UTILIZATION

No editing sounds.
Use very simple and intuitive, the manual is useless.
This keyboard can also be a good master keyboard thanks to its 61-key MIDI implementation.
Not much effect, just a duet and a vibrato that can not be blocked because it is the joystick that triggers them.

OVERALL OPINION

Used 2 months only, was recovered from a friend just to see.
Nothing phenomenal, just a little viello an arranger keyboard and sounds that go with it loool.
The joystick is ridiculous, but hey at least it takes up no space when the range.
The sound quality is a little time, so old, but to start I think it might be interesting.
Ideal for beginners to learn and the low price for which you can nab one and ease of use.
If you try to start an arranger keyboard light, compact (because it is flat, so is not much room) and ease of use coupled with an effective master keyboard 61 keys on your software for cheap please . But it is easy to find in. It's not a very common model.
