Best value:
Excellent
Small expander (smaller than a car radio, I scratch with an adhesive velcro on my keyboard) 16 banks of 16 sounds (256 so ...) in non-editable presets. The piano sounds are correct for an expander of this generation, each sound has an adjustable parameter ("effect" of the second potentiometer: it is often a reverb).
The MIDI channel (a socket IN, OUT and THROUGH a) is assigned (third knob).
The fourth knob selects a sound bank, selects the fifth sound in the bank.
Powered by AC adapter Alesis.
UTILIZATION
What bothers me the most: no display light, which together can be difficult if one wants to change its governance and the black light was out on the set ...
It's still very small writing ...
Often it is best to remove the factory reverb which sheds some light piano sounds.
Otherwise, it's hard to be easier! I can not remember if I had time to read the manual ... Not really need!
SOUNDS
Sounds interesting pianos, electric pianos (Fender Rhodes) and a few tablecloths. The organ sounds are pleasing (in my case I have a Hammond ...).
For the price, it is an excellent compromise.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it since 2002, not being a pianist, piano sounds I was looking for reasonably priced and with a minimal footprint to play a directory 50's-70's using a digital Hammond as a master keyboard, it's not bad. I did not find a better value to use as I was aiming.
