I use the big brother, MS2000, ALL the time.  basically, same engine.  Programs fast and accurate.  Side by side audio comparison with my Mini with similar settings are rather intriguing.....the Mini wins not in the low end, but rather the low mids, where it really counts.

Seconded. It's all over the second Systems Theory album 'Codetalkers' .Riverrunon that album is practically a demo tune for that instrument.

See: http://www.mikedick son.org.uk/ codetalkers/ index.html

The sound is also enormously big for such a small instrument. It almostmakes me forget ever having the horror that was the M1.

No, but I would recommend that you consider a MicroKorg. Theyrun on batteries or a A/C adapter and with a set of headphones, you canplay it anywhere. It fits in carry on luggage and is loads of fun toplay.
