Siel MDP-40Published on 04/09/08 at 00:19

(Small precision: I own version called "Suzuki RPM-40", but that's exactly the same as the Siel MDP-40 is that it is marketed t e in 3 different brands I think)

So DJ Premire thing is STANDARD! On the picture it looks like she fits in the hand, but not at all! Brief.
First good point: connectivity complte MIDI (in, out, + a MIDI thru -!!!- for pedals, trs certainly not found).
Dtail trs fun: the boiboite was CASC 10 sounds (0 9), but if it is controlled from a sequencer via MIDI, it has 3 more! A kick, a snare and a hat (which is played as if another note is played short trs bizare lol). Effects? lol ... With Fruity Loops you can put a delay noon but trs drive controller with this...…

With Fruity Loops you can put a delay noon but trs drive controller with this beast, it goes quickly into balls.
No squenceur but prprogramms 40 rhythms (which I find gniaux mostly) with the only changes two breaks, a button that adds a Hand Clap Hand Clap (lol) from time to time, and one button swing. Button is also the Tap Tempo / Mute gnial is: if you leave your finger on it, only the first note of each measure is played, and if you press just once, the measure is mute until it begins ... ! Oh and a big mystery for most of its owners: in addition to buttons to increase or reduce the tempo, a weird button BPM which apparently is not anything ... Oh and also the MIDI Poly, I tried with and without and I have not noticed any changes ...

UTILIZATION

_The Configuration gnrale? ... lol
_L'dition Sounds? ... mdr
_The Manual? ... the manuquoi?? XD

In short, it's a real toy ... but what a toy!

SOUNDS

Ah! Part INTERESTED! So, does it sound? For me, YES! Completely! His standard! Well I must say that cheating: EQ jy add a max low and some medium, I mad a good reverb and a compressor (Boss CL-50, its only default is to be mono and since this is boiboite mono: nickel), and believe me: ca dcoiffe! For the electro house and other genres, or the limit for the rock "open", and many sr for all that we can classify lo-fi, it's perfect. So for me that fits me well trs.

In fact, even by noon, no VLOC or pitch or volume or anything.

Kicks standards, although such snares are much better sr but cool anyway, the hat closed bof (in fact it is the same as the open but apparently cut half lol - and yes, it's cheap , trs cheap!) the remainder bin ... in fact everything is cheap, but I love it. Although sr must be at least one other bar cot (for me, it will be the MFB-502 that looks great, 100% analog).
Sound list because I'm nice:
Kick - Low Tom - Snare - Rim Shot - Closed Hat - Open Hat - Cymbal - Cabasa - Cow Bell - Hand Clap - and therefore more a Kick, Snare and a Hat if you MIDI controller. I would say that what makes the diffrence of these three sounds is that they are "felt" than the others ...

OVERALL OPINION

_I Have received the day I crit o notice
_This I love most: sr sounds good, what punch!
_This I like least: noon-doubt all the time she gave me a kind of epileptic seizure, I had to relight it several times before it calms down, I confess that I ' have a little fear live XD - and the two really big points ngatifs of this machine: no output spares (ca t have the foot) and polyphonic * CRAP! Genre when I program a beat on Fruity, a place where there is a kick + a + snare a hat, well, once it plays all normal and suddenly the bar eats me kick or snare: S: S: S
_J'ai Possd essay and a lot of bars, notament the Alesis SR-16 and the Roland MC-303 (I know, this is not a bar), and although it is more sucks but I like it as much as others if not more.
_Country Qualitprix? It dpend how you pay me, I got a kind 70 euros including shipping costs, so frankly excellent report (must be said, it is not really any more XD).
