Interesting you say that, it's not exactly a workhorse synth ...
I'd like to get something a bit more standard soon too, like a nord micro..

it's very temperamental .. sometimes i swap sounds and go "yikes! - this
sound bad!"...
however, effects make a big difference, and these days i find myself tuning
into a desirable SID sound, then just patching it through effects and
leaving it on that sound. If you assign the DCs to some setting you can a
wide range of sounds from the front...

The distortion *can* be nasty yes, and is uncontrollable..
