Utilisation  
- La configuration générale est-elle simple?

Très simple,seul regret:il manque un ecran tactile!

- L'édition des sons ou des effets est-elle facile?

oui,assez intuitive

- Le manuel est-il clair et suffisant?...

C est tres moyen,mais connaissant bien les KETROn,je n en ai jamais eu besoin
Avis Global  
Musicalité hors pair,cet instrument excelle dans les registres latino,baluche,folk et meme dans les styles actuels!

les sons sont tres bons,hormais tout ce qui est pads et synthés,pas vraiment sonn truc!
petit regret aussi sur les guitares type folk qui n ont rien a voir avec celles d un yamaha tyros 2!
pourtant en ecoutant les styles internes,les guitares sonnent super bien,mais impossible d obtenir le meme realisme en jeu solo.

le clavier est tres bon,malgres une certaine dureté des touches coté main droite.

il manque aussi un equaliseur interne comme sur les bons vieux X1 et SD1,de meme que des sorties séparées.

les hauts parleurs suffisent pour un usage domestique,bien qu ils manque un peu de graves.

bonne finition dans l ensemble avec un chassis en metal.

un peu cher mais pour ceux qui recherche un clavier relativement simple ,pret a jouer de suite sans programmation,c est un bon achat.

chez les autres constructeurs il n y a pas d equivalent.
