Ah, OK, thanks.
Well, there the CD2 falls behind all the alternatives (with the exception of the "old" C2). If you're coming from a "real" organ or expect a similar interface, anyway: the panel is still the one with the messier configuration. An improvement over the old version, but when you look at it without having used one in the past you still don't have everything exacly where you expect it to be as it happens with the Hamichord, the KeyBs and, even if with less extent, the Mojo.

That's a HUGE advantage, of course. ;)

Same here!
And I'm still happy i went for the Mojo, but if I had a CD2 or a KeyB I would be glad to remain with it for a few years. Because, quite frankly, everyone of these 3 "families" of clones sounds incredibly well (if compared with what was available a few years ago, anyway). Add the portability of the new ones (OK, Nord saw that long ago) and we can all be very happy.
