Cass,
I think this is one of the greatest machines ever designed and built but it will take us years to get to the bottom of everythihg it can do. I am just blown away as I learn more and more new things to do with this board. The samples are awesome as are the styles and there are now a ton of good styles available free on the web sites.
So go for it and we will master them together.
