My dad sent me a (non-specialist) review and the demo CD for this keyboard
the other day. I'm ever so slightly impressed with the sounds it produces.
However, I get the impression that the demo CD doesn't really do the
machine justice - the recreation of things like French Horns and so on
wasn't really what I wanted to hear it doing. Sure, it does a pretty good
job (most of the time), but I wanted to hear the *really weird* stuff.

Has anyone out there gotten to know one of these boxes well enough to get
away from the presets (which seem to be: french horns, saxaphones, cellos,
violins with trumpet mouthpieces, etc.)?

Any and all feedback appreciated!
