I got the board today and admit that the styles have a nice complexity to them. Sounds are good too, but just like with the Yamaha board I have I use the mixer a lot. I still feel that Yamaha Boards are the best for playing cover songs, but I will be able to work with the E-50 and Fantom XA combination, especially on my original work-more-so than my Yamaha combo of PSR-3000/Motif 6. I need to spend some more time on this board before I can give any +/- assesments. I do like the touch screen-it does increase speed for making setting changes. So far so good...
