A few things:
∗ True 16 usable bits of DAC for the CVs (all the way to the jack)
∗ The 650 supports 8 different voice allocation modes in either 1, 2, or 3
group configurations
∗ Two arpeggiators with 4 modes of operation on top of 4 orders of play
∗ Constant rate and constant time portamento (adjustable from 1ms to
65.535 seconds) - per voice group configurable
∗ Microtuning support, in addition to inverted scales
∗ Sync to internal, external or MIDI clock, including MIDI clock
generation
∗ Arpeggiator clocking can divide ∗AND∗ multiply regardless of clock
