Okay, I have to admit that I just bought a Korg EX-8000 (rack version
of DW8000) on eBay to "supplement" my VZ-1. Thanks to you guys, I just
discovered Korg's hybrid range and they really are superb. Together
with the VZ-1 it's an awesome live setup! Thanks for the encouragement :o)

...but no worries, my Casio VZ-1 is still the best :o)

Cheers
Fritzi
