Does it have an input for a guitar or mic? If so it looks like it would be nice to use with a laptop to throw together ideas quickly when the mood strikes.

I’ve got a little program on my work laptop called EnergyXT that is a small recording program that allows me to easily export tracks to my Cubase machine.

It looks like it might be a cool portable tracking device.

No Midi port, just midi over USB. I'm kinda digging the limitations of the little keyboard. That synth is more of a knob twiddly box in my estimation.

That keyboard looks like it might be a bit awkward to play. Have you played one? I would imagine you can MIDI in

a standard keyboard. It would fit nicely in the luggage for traveling eh?

A friend of mine just bought one of the OP-1 portable minisynths. Hasn't shipped yet, but there are plenty o' vids online

Oh my, it's a little gamechanger. Just a sick amount of fun in that little thing. Daddy wants one!
