Well, it's here and I'm already playing it. I pretty much remembered how to do everything with it as soon as I turned it on. It is in excellent condition and so far everything seems to work just fine. Everything is laid out well and the access is easy and intuitive. Key feel is good too.

Almost immediately I remembered what I liked and didn't like so much about it, but by far the plusses outweigh the minuses and she's a keeper. The one thing that surprised me is that I liked the ac piano tones better than I had remembered, but then again I never liked them at all on the PA80, so maybe anything is an improvement. The styles may be a weak point, but again, not quite as weak as I had thought.

The organs sound just as I remember them. I love the bread and butter synth patches and the simplicity yet depth of editing power. Nothing fancy, but full and rich for sample based stuff. The alto sax sounds as good as anything I have in soft modules. The only sax patches that sound better to me are the ones on my PLG150-VL Motif ES plug in. AC guitars are not so good, just as I remembered, but the electrics are very decent for KB stuff, especially considering the small amount of wav rom used.

Well, that's it for now. More playing with her is in order for the evening.
