Ease of Use
:
8
Very easy to use... plug your sound source in and sample away.. only the looping is pretty hard since it doesn't have a waveform display
Features
:
4
polyphony is only 4 WITHOUT the special FX. if special FX (like scrathing or filtering with the ribbon controller) polyphony is only 2 !!! it has a very small memory.. although it's flash-RAM which keeps the samples in memory when the unit is switched off... the filter is for all sounds so you can't assign LPF for sound #1 and HPF for sound #2... it has a LPF, BPF and HPF...
Expressiveness/Sounds

scratching is quite authentic sounding on some samples and sucks on some samples... sound are as good as you sample them, so it depends on you :) .. it's a bit noisey ...
Reliability

I'd take it with me on a gig but I wouldn't keep it as a central part of my kit... it's meant to be used by dj's

Overall Rating

It's okey if you use it for throwing in some loops and other samples in your music but not much else of use... I wouldn't buy it again.. in fact I'm getting more and more pissed I didn't save 300$ more so I could've bought Akai S-2000... for beginners it's okey but if you want REAL sampling, consider this no more...
