I'll be honest, I bought it to be a general multitimbral rompler to round out the rest of my gear, but expected to rely on my MKS-50 and Mopho for analog sounds.

But while just scrolling through presets on the PC361 I'd stop on some of the analog ones and they'd sound great -- enough so that I originally figured they were samples, and then through investigation I discovered they were based on the "VA-1" engine which I had never heard about until then.

Anyway, I just assumed my ears were being fooled either by samples or just the on board effects. Since no one else has been singing the praises of the VA-1 sound I just figure I have no taste =)

Nice vid btw!
