Hi,
Just received my Expression Mate today. Been experimenting with it for the past
couple of hours. I have no idea how to program it yet, but that's the fun of
learning a new instrument. It seems like a very different MIDI controller indeed.
Purchased this solely for the CS-80 effect, which it does quite well. Factory
progs are set to GM/XG type MIDI synths.(whatever that is?) Won't take me long to
get a few mono-synth setups on it. Seems limited only by your imagination.
For anyone interested there is a download-able user manual at the Kurzweil web
site.
