The overall flexibility makes the price feel pretty reasonable. Its a bit too small for me to play easily, but I think its almost the percussive partner to an MPE controller. The range of sound is quite respectable. Its easy to imagine it drawing some colorful music from a lot of players.

Beautiful sounds. I’m diggin it. Adding midi makes this thing super viable to me.
