Yeah it seems to be from some kind of trade show. 

Those keys look like actual piano keys, even though they're still tiny.  I wonder if they're semi-weighted or something.  That would be a pretty weird thing to do to a tiny keyboard.

Edit: I posted the same video as Victor Robots.  Duh.

'natural touch' keyboard !?

the big knobs look cool, but maybe not enough for editing with.

quite interesting though, i've always got a soft spot for synths that run on batteries

Looks like portability is the only thing preventing him from becoming a Hikikomori

That Microkorg XL seems interesting, looks like editing will be easier than on the Microkorg, no? From the looks of it the 'full edit' function will give you the most parameter control, like on those mid 80's synths where you had to access parameters with a 2 digit number and then use a slider to edit the parameter value.

I dunno. Where the arp buttons at? In deep edit mode?

The whole "cheap" retro styling is a little offensive.. And that lip on the base of the synth is going to get chipped real easy.

Was I the only one laughing through the hole video?

ahahahahahahahah  that guy is soooo  coooool

Don't know about you lot, but the vocoder sounds cool...
The styling is weird - looks like a bastardised Rhodes or Wurlitzer, but I can live with that.
