For the price this is an excellent keyboard. It's an arranger board along the lines of the Yamaha PSR series and Korg i series. It's definately better than anything in its price range. Over the years I have owned many different Keyboards ( ie Korg, Roland, Alesis, Ensoniq ect.) and for the price this is as good as it gets. I am not stating this is the best keyboard out there, just that for the $ you can't do better. You can access all the Yamaha PSR styles and use the XG sounds on midi files as well. This is not a pro keyboard although I might use it for that just for some of the sounds. It also doesn't have a true sequencer but it does have many sequencing abilities. The sounds come out of speakers in the keyboard but you can hook up to external amps. I would recommend this keyboard to anyone looking for a great board without a hefty price.

Comments About the Sounds:
Sounds are very expressive. All accoustic sounds are very, very good. With over 600 sounds you won't get bored.
