I have been playing the AX-7 for a few years now and purchased the AX Synth as a replacement and upgrade. My 1st observation is that the Volume control know is backwards from the AX-7. That can mess with you! The other problem that I am experiencing is getting my AX's volume knob to transmit volume commands like CC-7 or CC-11 to my module. If there is a way to do this, please, someone let me know.
The Violin is incredible! The best and most expressive I have EVER heard! The guitars are good, and of course the synth sounds rock.
The AX Synth is a bit heavier than the AX-7, and it has more keys so it is longer. If you sit while you perform, you will probably need a stool.
I haven't got into programming yet, but am excited to start. Great synth! Thanks Roland!
