I don't want to start a discussion of whether the SD1 is better than a VA76 (we'll be here forever), it's personal choice. However, if anyone is wanting a VA76 that is only 3 month old, pristine condition, extra zip disc with loads of sounds and styles, please e-mail me for price. UK only please.
Thr VA76 is bigger and easier to use than a VA7, it has more access buttons on it. Quicker for live use, although mine has been used 4 times at home only.
Thanks.
