«  A beautiful keyboard configured for software »

Published on 06/15/13 at 05:57
To be honest, I had the small 25 provided with Analog Player.
As soon as I saw the keyboard with Analog Laboratory, I fell over, not without having tried it before, it is now increasingly recognized by the software, nothing to do. This is a good keyboard nice touch in version 49 and 61. a mild blue screen does help to follow the sequences and sounds.
Short a Top Arturia. The connection is complete, USB, MIDI in and out, Aux, food, Expression Pedal, Sustain, Breath, and an on / off switch. A sturdy metal body and wood, a look of vintage and futuristic.

UTILIZATION

Already mentioned, I like the feel, but to each his own, I see the pianists do not fit.
The manual is in French and clear, a model of its kind, and the configuration with Analog, no problem, the software is immediately recognized by the keyboard and vice versa, assignments and methods are pre-configured, a set of child, which does not preclude assign other software music / sounds / Daw, over all Arturia software is usable with this keyboard.
The selection of MIDI channels is simple with all the classic software patches are not a problem. It has 10 switches, 4 Pads (super), 10 "pots", 9 sliders and other envelopes, sequencer, 2 mini pads UP and Down. Of course, the Soft can also be used with other keyboards, for example I could easily operate with EMU Xboard 61 great for its time and now also.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 years, the software before, and yes I bought the pack only for the keyboard! For models yes, of course (Roland, Yamaha, Korg, EMU, Arturia, M-Audio, Akai, Prodipe, Behringer, etc..), But this one, for its ease with Analog Laboratory, and the vintage look WYD for Fans. I like the rugged look, it is beautiful and practical, there are sounds Vintage WYD, Vangelis, Enya, etc..
I would buy a range or above, but I have several keyboards already enough for my styles. I would add that in addition Arturia offers 5000 sounds and other offers like Analog Lab to 19 € instead of 89 €, which is not insignificant to be recorded in their client. Frankly, for the price, the quality and finish are there, when I read some reviews before, I do not think they have found better, and problems, they are often associated with PC configuration, home studio, as experience is knowing just plug here. I was the note for skeptics.
