    I'm giving this a ten because even though it has its limitations, it is a very satisfying and detailed sequencing program (given the platform). The real-time kaoss pad controls are AMAZING. I will add that part of the art of this thing is trying to keep things from getting muddy while sounding musical at the same time. The two synths are monophonic, which is a bummer, but ifI'm giving this a ten because even though it has its limitations, it is a very satisfying and detailed sequencing program (given the platform).

The two synths are monophonic, which is a bummer, but if you're the kind of person who knows the value of limits, this becomes more of an interesting challenge than a hindrance - truthfully the sound capabilities of the DS can't handle any more options than the game gives you. Interesting surprise - you can control panning and volume for each channel.

    If you're interested in making music, the KORG DS-10 is a robust and powerful tool. But those looking for a more accessible DS sonic experience may struggle to make the most of it.
