[Features]
The dark and austere feeling reminiscent of the early Five Digits MK6 can be seen in many places, but the powerful sound, which is different from the delicate and precise character of the early days, can only be found in the 120,000s. The agile sound rise, stable pitch balance, and other functionalities are also high, and the high degree of perfection as a performance tool shines through. As a musical instrument, it still has a long way to go. We are looking forward to seeing how it will change and grow in the future. For you who are looking for a lifetime instrument.
