It was originally designerd to be the satate of the art synthi, and the quite overused sampling section was tacked on a t the last minute. It is not just a sampling keyboard like the Emulator ofr Mirage - it does synthisesis quite well. zI've never beenlu lucky enoutgh to play one (only seen one once), but I have a fr [D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[D[Duses pone in a class . I'll approach him for more info. Oh, yeah, I nearly forgot .. Someone mentioned in a previous L.H. that KB used a Harmonizer on Waking the Witch.
