This is my third new synth got matrixbrute noir and rev2 8 prophet all excellent synths with amazing build quality but the hydrasynth delux is build so well I cannot believe the quality of this thing, its awesome. I'm so glad I waited for the delux wow what a sou d. You have gota hear one on your speaker system I've club speakers and this thi g does have some serious low end too, it makes me play so much better, these poly touch keys are to die for. Trust me not buying one is madness. It can do any sound you could imagine in a million years, wow. The long 73 keybed is a hod send and the touch strip is an absolute joy to use. BUY ONE IT WILL BE THE BEST STUDIO INVESTMENT YOU WILL EVER MAKE. TRUELY EPIC SYNTH.
