It sounds great. The programming part is litle bit tedious, since there is no display but thats not a big deal after a while. The kick drums are the best Ive ever heard. Its not that punchy like the rytm or the the tr-8 but the bottom end is just fantastic. I can highly recomend it. You can se that ‘cleanness’ even in the waveform of these samples. Some of the sines looks like they were drawn by hand.
