Im gonna just say it now, this thing is a toy. the keys are about as big as my fingers, and the sounds are all but decent. Although using some of the odd effects on here, you can get a piano to sound like the sound in the beginning of the Erasure song "chorus" funky!! although it does have auto accomoment, thats the only thrill of it. the only reason i have it is to use when i get bored

Comments About the Sounds:
The sounds found on this synth are pretty strange. its like a piano doesnt sound anyhting like a piano. i remember my kindergarten teacher used to tell us stories and she had this synth, and when "peter was taken away by a wave" she'd play a horrible version of a wave sound!!

(Thanks to Jimmy for this info.)
