Fun little syth

If your a musician with kids or a partner give them this and put it the key you want to jam in and you have accompaniment. Great for a bit of ambience looping too. Enjoy

Great musical instrument

Having a lot of fun loading it up with effects in AUM. Would love to be able to load my own sound as an instrument to further it's customization.
