Honestly, I'm going off of the YouTube video I just watched. It sounds super powerful for a one OSC synth. Nice, tight LFO and the filter sounds like early ARP stuff.

Does it have PWM?

I played one in a store once? I thought it was pretty cool, though I tend to prefer slightly wilder sounding synths in that category, like the Pro One.

I have one that I got for free, for a simple little synth it's pretty awesome. I find it particularly good for bass, sounds great through an SVT Classic. It's good for putting software synths or samples through the filters too, though I've never got the hang of sending tracks through the CV input.
