* The arpeggiators... ahh, the arpegiators
* Err... this one might seem a little weird, but I really like the big blank bit of space on the keyboard version. I'm not just being Zen here; It's a great place to put your computer keyboard.
* The keys on the keyboard version are a joy to play
* Dedicated effects section for each part in multi mode. Genuine multi timbrality at last.
* 512 user patch locations. You can dedicate a whole bank just to loading up a new set. I've got two where I dump my favourites, and the other one for edited sounds. Hey, with 4 banks of 128 to play with, you can get pretty creative with your organizing skills.
OK. That'll do for now.
