So, first off, it's a great product overall but unfortunately, I had to return it. For over 3 years, I've been using the Yamaha MX61 during my live worship sets. I decided to get the Numa Compact 2 because it is larger in size, has semi-weighed keys, after touch (which is definitely a plus) and some really great onboard sounds to use during live performance. I found the Numa Compact 2 easy to use and super responsive straight out of the box. I loved it, for the most part.Here's the issue that I have: stick 2, which is used for modulation and fx, only locks in place in the X position. The x position basically does the same thing as after touch. Now, if you move that stick up or down in the Y position, you get those beautiful overtones that you find on any other keyboard that has decent modulation. For a worship setting, it's really ideal that I gradually bring those frequencies in using modulation. I reached out to StudioLogic for help and was basically told that I had to purchase the Numa Compact 2X in order to achieve that result. It sucks, but I'll be returning it and will most likely be getting the Yamaha MODX8.
