Ease of Use

It's quite easy to use after you get in to it. The manual is a typical Roland manual.

All of the 76 half weighted keys feel nice. It has all MIDI capabilities but After Touch. Rhe nice thing in it is that you have full control over your modules. It has two MIDI out ports, so you can control two different groups of midi equipment... Can also be used with batteries as the power supply. The keyboard makes an irritating noise when you play eg. with headphones on or with low volume.. ..but it doesn't matter so much... I guess you can't make a keyboard absolutely silent.. ;-)

Great for rock music. It's not a piano but it's not a light keyboard either. Very fun to play. Velocity is great. No aftertouch though.

I can rely on it 100%. Yes, I'd use it on a gig without a backup.

Yes, I' buy it again. It's certainly worth every penny I paid for it. I love the feel of those 76 half weighted keys. Wish it had Aftertouch. It's a great help in composing..
