MusicRadar rating
Pros
The range of sounds and control. Superb MIDI implementation. Seamless switching. Very low noise levels. Great manual.
Cons
No low power option. Just for pro's, really.
The bottom line
You great tone no matter what preset you use, but that power is overkill for all but professionals.
