Love this little monster. It's cute as hell and lots of fun! Having never owned a real analogue synth before, the possibilities (and limitations) are really inspiring! I love the posterboard templates and the fact that there are no programmed presets make using the synth an experiment every time I plug it in:)!!! I only gave 3 stars for ease of use, but to me, that's kind of what I dig. You have to explore a little to find sounds you can use. But you have a quite cool, old-style way of saving the presets in using the blank dry-erase posterboard templates included with the synth!

Musical Background:

Play whatever I can get my hands in, but trained mostly in guitar. Piano. Love synths and software!
