Probably great for the right someone; not for me though

Pros: it's small, battery powered, and super quick to get from turning it on to making sounds. It's really hard to argue with something this portable if that's what you're looking for.

Cons: coming from previously owning an MPC 2000, and then a Korg ESX-1, it's really hard to go from a full-fat full-control kinda device to a pared down, streamlined sampler/sequencer like this. If I still had my ESX, this would probably be nice as a little travel thing to keep on me when I'm on the go, but as my only hardware sampler? I just can't live with it. I'm too much of a knob-tweaker to live with the macro functions (they are reprogrammable through the web interface, which is nice, but I much prefer simple cutoff, resonance, etc. style controls).

If you're primarily interested in being able to get an idea from your head down on the go, at the moment it comes to you, then this may very well be the device for you. If you're more of a traditionalist who likes full control, and are looking for a primary device, this may not be what you're looking for (used ESX-1s go for less than these, sometimes even the SD models. If you're like me, you can't go wrong with that insanely over-powered, under-rated groovebox).
