Regarding the "DreamBlaster":
If you listen carefully to the single instruments you will notice that many of them sound tinny and / or very synthy. There are also little or no variations of many instruments available, so a high or low note sounds way more off than it should.
But thanks to the rich effects and the heavy use of reverb and chorus the weaknesses are covered and to some degree hidden, at least if you just do "casual listening".
In this aspect the module does its job quite well. Casual listening.
But as soon as you start to judge the samples itself and compare them against other modules you will notice its various sample weaknesses, mainly due to its small ROM size.
