Frequently Asked Questions
The aftertouch is subtle and more like a gentle pressure sensitivity; it’s not the same nuanced control as a dedicated aftertouch synth but it’s a welcome addition.
Yes, the 5-pin DIN MIDI Out allows connection to older hardware, but be aware that it only transmits basic MIDI messages – no advanced MIDI 2.0 functionality.
The display is reasonably bright and has good contrast, making it quite visible even in low-light conditions, though direct sunlight could pose a challenge.
