It did not come with any real time controls or user patch storage. The CZPL 88 mini can receive CC messages from any MIDI controller and translate them to the system messages the MKS-7 expects. It can also store thousands of user created patches, making the MKS-7 far more usable.

Side chain compression lets the kick drum and bassline coexist without stepping on eachother. This video shows how I added this effect to my setup for about $65 total (compressor plus mini-mixer). If you have a larger mixer with enough inputs, you won't need the mini-mixer.

A baffle step correction (BSC) and Zobel filter have been included to tame the top end.
This is a sample of the sound - since the mic is just a cheap Canon PowerShot digicam, don't read too much into it. They sound very balanced, bass isn't huge but nevertheless present.
