It has over 500 sounds. While there are some bad apples, the essential voices sound good, including piano, e-piano, synth pads, and the like.
This portable keyboard piano sports an easy to play non-weighted synth action keybed. And it is up to snuff compared to other portable piano keyboards.
For a portable keyboard, this one comes with pads. They can be assigned to do different things, like applying pitchbend and effects.
