As a performance synthesizer, it's the best out there as yet. The sounds are breathtaking. The arpeggiator is not fully programmable, but there are enough presets (45) that doesn't really have to be. The 128 voice polyphony is especially handy for performances and sequencing and such. The operating system is not quite as intuitive as a touch screen, but it's a whole lot less money than a Triton, and has better sounds, synthesis and feel (as a classical pianist I especially appreciated this), which make up for the absence of the sequencer and sampler. I recommend it wholeheartedly to any performing keyboardist.

Comments About the Sounds:
Incredible. Best I've heard.
