YamahaREFACE DX Portable FM Synthesizer

Q: Are the speakers loud enough to keep up with an acoustic guitar, or would it be drowned out?

I depends on how loud the guitar is. I've jammed with someone on guitar in a hotel room no problem.

Q: can you layer the sounds on the reface dx?

No layering unless you are controlling it from a keyboard with it's own sounds via MIDI. But then you couldn't layer the keyboards that the YC emulates, either. It's pretty true to the Hammond, Vox, Farfisa, Ace-Tone and the original Yamaha YC organ. Knowledge of the tones for these organs will help you with getting the sound close to the original (like Farfisa not having a 5 1/3' or anything above 4' or the Vox Continental not having 5 1/3' or 1 1/3'). It's really sturdy for its size and I think it's great. I own 2 Hammonds, have owned 2 Vox Continentals, a Farfisa Mini Compact, and still have an Elka Panther. This board does the sounds extremely well.

Q: Can it emulate a clean (no synth) electric bass? A hand injury has made it impossible to fret the guitar, but keyboard is OK.

I have not tried to do this with my Reface CS, but there are so many sound combinations that I am certain a setting can be found to emulate this. The synthesizer does not save settings without using a website connection, so you may be more interested in a digital synthesizer with a bass wavetable sample, which will emulate a bass guitar without experimentation. Yamaha also has a Reface DX synthesizer which creates its synthesis in a different way (frequency modulation as opposed to simulated analog synthesis) but again, to get the exact tone you want, you would need to experiment with it. If you want to do JUST bass, you might want to specifically search for products that are specialized for "keyboard bass".
