Amazing compositon power and sounds in a portable relatively inexpensive package.
The MoXF8 is amazing. 88 weighted keys in a 30 lb keyboard. I can transport it easily in my Honda civic across the back seat because the width of the keyboard is basically just the keys. It's got everything the Motif XF does except user sampling and a big color display, but the display is logically laid out and easy to navigate. It's got the full Motif XF soundset and effects, sequencing, arpeggiators, etc. Another big plus - it serves as an audio interface with relatively low latency for soft synths. Can handle 2 stereo audio channels and has an audio input on the keyboard that can be routed through effects (including a vocoder effect). It's not as good as my RME Babyface audio interface, but it's not far off ... I might end up selling the Babyface. I'm having a blast learning and using it. Only downsides for me is that the keyboard doesn't have aftertouch and the midi in either goes to the keyboard or goes past the keyboard directly to the USB out (depending on the MIDI mode of the keyboard). You will not go wrong investing in this keyboard!
