Good point. This is the trouble with trying to make a MECE (mutually
exclusive, completely exhaustive) list. They are hard to make well.
Apologies....

Unless others feel strongly otherwise, I would suggest putting the
EX5 in all the categories it applies to, since you might use it in
any of those roles.

Cheers,

Apologies? Don't be silly... it's in the interest of everyone,
after all.

OK. I think the term 'workstation' would have fit the bill, though
the EX5 is not really a workstation, more like a very big synth
with exciting capabilities as well as frustrating shortcomings.
