Great, but not perfect
It's a great piece of kit, but it's not perfect.
It's a bit fiddly and not very intuitive to access some of the functions.
Since they went for a more vintage aesthetic, the tiny screen often isn't very useful to know what you are doing. So you have to spend some time with the manual.
It can be a little hard to visually tell what's entered in the sequencer, I'm sometimes squinting and wondering if it's a trigger or parameter change.
But overall, it has a lot of features packed into it, many of which are great for live performance, and invite to playing around.
The sequencer is more advanced than you might think, at first glance.
And it sounds really, really good, with some unique character.
It's a bit of a one-trick pony, though, it's not the most versatile.
And it's not as squelchy as your typical acid box, if that's what you're after. But it's great at what it does and has its own sound character.

Great Synth with minor flaws
Everything about the sound is exactly as expected - if you know what you are getting into, you will be amazed by this machine!
I have to deduct a point for two reasons: first no main output level control is a bummer.
what is even a bigger point is that there is only one unbalanced 1/4 output. This may seem minor, but this not only prevents from connecting headphones, but also stereo dj mixers. I personally would love a dual mono packed into one balanced 1/4 to have the needed flexibility. As it is right now, this machine does not find its way into live setups for only that reason (running with a xone96)
