I'm seriously surprised at how good it sounds, I used to have a Novation Nova desktop synth but the X Station seems much better, less digital that my old Nova, with really quite warm sounding filters and very little aliasing going on with the oscillators... time to dump the SH-201!
I'll admit that there's fewer parameters to tweak, but as a basic VA synth it's capable of some really good patches, even a great emulation of the Polymoog's Vox Humana is possible (which even my Kronos has problems with)

I guess I'll have to find something else going cheap to tear down and use for my project.
