also proved to be very durable. And with EQing, and running it
through a Motion Sound Pro3T, it sounds pretty darn good. It's a
little thin up top and doesn't have as much muscle as I would ideally
like to have. And then there's the harmonic beating problem, most
noticeable when the horn is spinning fast. But it was and is a very
big improvement over what I'd used before (an XB-2, preceded by a
very brief use of a Micro B). If money were no object, I'd probably
get a CX-3. Maybe some day. For now the XK-2 is a very reliable
keyboard that gives me a reasonably credible tonewheel sound.

The opinion I`m used to hearing in that the XK2 is too loud up top.
But I prefer the sound of the XK2 over the Korg. The Korg is a
little too digital sounding to me. Casey
