I've only had a few hours with this unit but I am thoroughly surprised. Here I go though just a small handful of the 512 presets. Short answer, It sounds wonderful.
Not shown here, but it is also a breeze to program. They did a superb job sampling the instruments as well. This has the best Mellotron samples I've heard on a rack unit, and the Hammond is beautiful. The Electric pianos really shine, though the Rhodes is not quite as good as the WurliTzer (The wurlitzer I happened to land on sounds nothing as good as the un-effected sample).
The synth samples are very nice, albeit a little thin at times. However they give you many of the basic waveforms to work off.
I would certainly reccomend this to anyone looking to get some decent sound for live applications, without spending money on a new workstation, or if you don't want to lug around another board at all. MIDI works like a dream with this unit.
***Note: Unit is sitting on an Alesis Midiverb III, for anyone wondering***

You should seriously find a good band and mess around with that
