Eh, it's a toy.
Although it looks cool and very 80s There's not alot of practical use for the PSS-120 or PSS-130. There's no sound output jacks for one and secondly it features possibly the worst built in drum machine I've ever heard . I usually love yamahas portasound series but this one just is mostly just a kids toy . The only reason I'm giving this 3 stars is for the cute 8bit soundchip it has onboard , and the ability to record and sequence notes easily .

Truly a timeless beast with unlimited potential
The Yamaha Dx7 can create some of the most otherworldly sounds that blur the line between synthesized tones and acoustic-like tones . there is truly nothing like it .
Preferred Settings + Usage:
the only stock patch i dig has got to be the classic - Patch 11 - (ROM1 JAPAN) - ELECTRIC PIANO it is a VERY overused patch , but regardless of that it sounds beautiful and mellow
