Default Re: Roland SH201 vs Roland Juno D

I tend to discount built in sounds to a degree unless you only have analog output. More important for me is the feel of the keyboard, and then Features - like GM mapping. I've lived with a mini-key Yamaha for years and only recently got a old Kawai synth. The Yamaha PSS-790 has pretty bad sound, but I can pull up samples of just about any instrument in MIDI. I will collect patches and banks for the Kawai for the line out sound.

Synth patches are best for synth sounds anyway, and Analog instruments (piano) I recreate with samples.
