Synthonia

POWERFUL COMPACT SYNTH WITH ONBOARD PATTERN SEQUENCER AND VOCAL FX
Tiny, mighty, and affordable, the JD-Xi puts a true analog synth engine, Roland’s famous SuperNATURAL synth sounds, and many other creative tools under one hood. Equipped with 37 mini keys, this compact instrument delivers fat, warm analog bass and lead tones with ample controls for hands-on tweaking, plus polyphonic PCM essentials like pads, strings, brass, and more. Create impressive loops in a flash with the pattern sequencer and built-in drum kits, and explore expressive vocal textures with the gooseneck mic, Vocoder, and AutoPitch. Small in size and large in versatility, the JD-Xi is all about big sounds and big fun!

Why again those mini-keys ???
It's a very interesting machine to use as a second keyboard (I like the onboard vocal processor idea) but I could never play on those keys

really a great new Synth by roland, I like the Jd series name
