Frequently Asked Questions

The touchpad controls parameters like reverb, delay, and filter cutoff in real-time, allowing for simple, expressive effects during performance, but don't expect complex modulation capabilities.
No, the USB connection is MIDI only; you'll need an external audio interface to record audio from the keyboard.
Not really; the 64-voice polyphony will struggle with dense, layered sounds, making it better suited for simpler arrangements or solo performances.
