Designed for professional music production environments and DJs and live club

addressable MIDI channels. Internal sounds reside in flash memory and can
easily be swapped for new sounds via compact flash cards, optional user
installable hard drive, or the optional CD–ROM drive. A CF card with preloaded
sounds is included to get you started.
