The software is easy to access, I have Japanese import, so I never read a single word of instruction, and yet I'm doing pretty good. The interface is in English and very instinctive.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

I use the output jack connected to the microphone input of my laptop, running Ubuntu Studio. It works like a dream.

OVERALL OPINION

Not a game, more than a gadget, a real instrument!

Well, ok, the sounds are certainly not fully comparable to those of a real vintage synth. But we can really work, the polish, and get that sound straight out think a NES, and even imitations of instruments. I could get sounds much like a flute, piano, glockenspiel ...
The patching brings real added value, it allows to vary parameters of sound (octave, pan, cutoff, attack ...) at a frequency which is defined.
The only regret I have is that the sequencer does not offer much space, but relativize, this is a DS cartridge, and for 40 euros, well worth the money! I walk around this problem by using multiple memory locations and recording on pc, I can then combine them.

The fact that it runs on DS is a tremendous advantage for me, you can call for transport during peak hours!

For me it is a software to buy without hesitation.
