    You can adjust the speed of the vibrato by going into Frequency Modulation mode, using the data entry +- buttons to speed it up or slow it down, then getting back out of Frequency modulation mode. Other hidden functions: you can trim your sample by using the +- buttons in loop mode, and vary your sample quality/length ratio by holding one of the middle octave keys while you sample (low keys make a longer, lower quality sample while higher keys make a better, shorter sample.) It takes a little bit of practice with the timing to make this work. Source: I grew up with one of these and spent way too many hours playing with it. I still have it around but it's very beaten up.

    The whole point of music is to describe what words cannot. While lyrics can add value, they often take away from the artistic value of music. If you need to describe what a piece of art is about (whether a painting, movie, or song) then it is not good art. Its supposed to be open to interpretation and the best lyrics are those that are vague enough that they can be interpreted in multiple ways. Kinda reminds me of Black Moth Super Rainbow / Tobacco.

    I had one of these in high school back in '92. Made alot of loops with it along with a Realistic Concertmate 500. Recorded the loops with intention of reviving them someday. Well, 2mos. ago I bought a cassette deck, started resampling some of those loops into my MPC2000xl and gave them a little oomph with layering and adding an extra sound or two. I miss the keyboard but it lives in the loops created and resampled.
