We are the music makers - producers?

They’re good little synths but I would say it has its niche, it’s not a do it all or “conventional” kind of synth. The touch pad keyboard is unusual, it works in an interesting way but it’s not exactly what you’d expect from a typical synth.

I think if the intended recipient is interested in experimenting and creating unusual sounds (especially digitally synthesised sounds) it’s a great choice. If the aim was to be able to cover a load of classic analogue/subtractive sounds and/or learn the basics of synthesis there might be better choices (eg the Korg Minilogue is very popular as a more conventional analogue synth).
