If you're looking for a versatile yet compact synth/sequencer, then this is well worth checking out. There are a few complaints about the need to buy the power adapter separately. Even Paul Nagle of Sound on Sound commends it by saying, "While the Monologue is appealing for its sound engine alone, for me the deal-clincher is the sequencer." Aside from its versatile envelopes and VCOs, many are also impressed with its sequencer. This versatility also translates to value, since you can do more with just one instrument.

Other features include having a 25-key slim keybed with velocity sensitivity, micro-tuning, auto-tuning, easy transposition of sequences, and it can run on batteries.
