It is the sounds themselves. It comes with the Motif
soundset which IMHO has incredible Rhodes and all of
the other sounds you would expect to find on a synth.
But it also includes a superb acoustic piano which the
Motif doesn't have.
To me the biggest shortcoming is the organ set. In
fairness, even if the sounds were great, it would be
hard to play on a weighted KB.
The lack of organ sounds is the reason I'm hanging out
on this list as I try to supplement the S90ES.
