"Short and sweet"

Sound:

The Drums are impressive for such a small and inexpensive unit, The synths are good, Effects let you tweak sounds.

Feature:

Touch sensitive would be nice,

Quality:

Size is what does it for me, also no knobs that can break of so I can toss it in my bookbag. Mines been through some torture and still performs fine.

For what I paid $200. worth every penny, and more

"Honey, I shrunk the Keyboard Workstation!!"

Overall:

I think of it as my little Musical Swiss Army Knife. However, it must be pointed out that this unit does not actually record electric guitar. It just gives you a cool little amp simulator for putting to tape or disk.

Style of Music: Electronic, ambient.. all depends on the mood.

Experience: Music Hobbyist

"Absolutely amazing for the price, and simply fun and easy to work with! Lots of fun and good for seriously laying down some tra"

Sound:

There is an amazing variety of sounds on this thing! All the sounds a very good quality, and I can always find voices that work with others and with the song. I love being able to tweak the sounds the way I'd like too, and all the chorus/reverb/and many variation effects can make any voice sound even better.

Feature:

Since I got it off ebay, i got a power supply which is very useful. Batteries seemed to actually last me quite a bit. Once you start getting battery low signs, they keep popping up for about 20 minutes, but then after awhile of the machine being off, the batteries seem to recharge a little bit and last another 30 minutes or so, and works a few more times. I wish it had a backlit screen, but that would seriously eat up battery time. Maybe one like this guy modded up ( http://launch.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/QY70/photos/browse/51fd ) that only lights when plugged into the wall.

Quality:

The little machine is put together very well and looks very sleek and nice, though it is a little bit big. The qy has never failed on me or frozen before, and always picks up right where I left it when i turn it off. I don't believe it would be too easy to break, because I've actually dropped it a few times and it's been just fine. This to me is the IDEAL item for road travel. Just make sure if it's a long trip to keep some extra batteries :)

Manufacturer Support:

Haven't needed to deal with customer service.

Value:

For the price, this thing is amazing. Definitely worth buying. If I had the money I'd definitely pay for one even at normal pricing I got it for $300)

The Wow Factor:

It's like they took everything a music hobbyist could want and stuck it in a little portable box. It looks really nice and is what I'm using to make music now.

Overall:

I think this should last me quite awhile. I might get a newer qy model if one ever comes out, but would definitely keep this one. I bought this one mainly because of the portability issue, and that I just wanted something to make music with away from the computer.
