A bit of history with the product review. The Wurtlizer is the oldest device CIRCA 1970. It is electromechanical and has reeds that vibrate. Coils pick up the vibrations and send them to an amplifier. I added a Stomp Box to extends the range of sounds. There were also more expensive devices that used strings at to produce sounds at that time. The GEM organ is a little newer circa 1980. It has analog operational amplifiers that generate the sounds. I have the schematic and was able to the collect peddles to the drum section of this circuitry. The Yamaha circa 1990 is a digital device the artificially produces sounds called PCM sounds. Some are pretty good but you can tell they are artificial. The CASIO PREMA has some sounds produced from digital snippets. These snippets are recorded from the real instrument. I got the ROLAND supernatural sound module. It has thousands of snippet produced sounds. My bad playing does not even the merit the use of such a device. I can actually play the sounds from the cathedral of Notre Dame. Frank
