for the vast amount of bass and lead duties it can do and sound good at it, i.e. doesn't matter if your making house, techno, electro funk, 80's Boogie or whatever it does the job well, it's my go to for bass, I will never ever sell it, as for the Minibrute it left my studio after a few months, seemed really limited for what I wanted from a mono and I wasn't in awe of it's sound, It didn't gel with me...The Bass Station 2 still suprises me and haven't ever tired of it's timbres/sound.
