UTILIZATION

Simple configuration, manual clear.

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using one an.Matériel scalable.
I've tried several, Korg, Yamaha etc, but each has its advantages and shortcomings.
I did not really like the keyboard slightly noisy.

Very good quality price, professional it does not have to fade other more expensive keyboards.

I would do the same choice.

Very good arranger keyboard. Superb sound bank (Recent). Very easy to handle. "His most: her weight for transport."
I regret separates mine because I share abroad for 5 years in another field.

See the documentation on the net regarding its sound banks, its drum kits, effects etc..

Currently, version 1 or 2 (ditto), we must seek the difference!
No better since Roland.

2 years I have followed since the Roland E 70, I followed all the developments. This one is interesting report "Quality-Price".

What I find amazing is the USB connection to the computer and its compartment (registration, import, export etc..) By the USB facade, protected by a flap. AWESOME!
