"A great sounding module for the price."
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
If mine were lost or stolen, I would definitely get another one. I love it.
Sound
There are a lot of good sounds on this unit. There are also some that are mediocre. But if you choose the right patches, you can create really great music. There are some outstanding patches that adjust the sound sample based on velocity...that's a cool feature.
Features
The SD-20 editor software is very handy for setting up voices and midi control changes on various channels.
Quality
It might not survive if you dropped your master keyboard on it, but it is adequate. Take care of it, and you'll have no problems.
Value
I believe this unit is an outstanding value with great sounds for the price.
Musical Background:
Hobbyist, but I have a bachelor's degree in jazz arranging from the University of North Texas
