Donny,
Thanks for asking....
In my case pretty darn good.
I am having a good time wth DNC sounds and have figured out most of what makes them tick...very flexable and capable system. I have not made my own sound using the DNC yet, but I will.

Also, believe it or not, I have just lately been discovering the SUPERB PADS. I have used them in the past WITH styles...but have discoverd how great they are on thier own! They have some real nice, fairly simple accomapyments to play to WITHOUT even turning the style on.

The new styles (26 of them) are very nice as well and I am trying tem in different songs.

I have to order a Korg EC-5 so I can use foot pedals with the DNC sounds to make it nicer to play. The DNC sounds however do have nice functions by just legato vs stacato.

There has been a few issues reported by a few people, and Korg is on it, getting any symptoms so they can fix them quickly.

I think the biggest issue is the use of user drum kits that use factory sounds. There is a workaround, but I know Korg is woring on a better solution. I (like most)don't have any so it does not effect me.

My keyboard is playing just fine with OS2.

Of course we are still identifying and requesting solutions to a few minor things of which most were there for a long time.

Meanwhile, I am having fun with all the nice PADS, and have made my own piano arpeggio sequence on a PAD. Is was very easy.
