Value For Money : Correct
Output Stereo L + R / 2 Audio IN (injection of external sounds through the filter) / Midi IN & OUT THROUGH
4 percussion pads + 1 + 1 Hit Hat close open HH + 1 + 1 Clap Crash:
All of these parliaments are adjustable via an oscillator (pitch / depth / speed / type) + an amplifier section (decay / pan / low boost / level)
Factory Patterns (256) are rich enough, in all editions patterns and allow user to realize the versabilit of the machine in all styles. No soft ddi provided for editing via PC but full MIDI control in master or slave via an external sequencer.
The delay section (depth + time) applies to the stereo output signal, adjustable tempo (tempo dly) or recordable in real time (motion seq).
All functions available for editing patterns (move / copy / insert / delete)
Sequencer with 4 X 16 not editable 16/32/48/64 in sixteenth, eighth and triple ternary (sixteenth of 12 steps).
The "motion seq" allows you to record in real time the changes of the parameters of the filter and the delay to create the original morphing. Pattern with emphasis level.
Solo and mute available for all elements of generateur.Jog to switch patterns in patterns.

UTILIZATION

The grip of the machine is relatively intuitive, a half-hour hack and 2 or 3 visits to special functions for manual and it was all inclusive .. The edition of sounds and effects is easy, the knobs are soft and comfortable, the keys on the sequencer feature LEDs for easy location of the write patterns, everything is clear cot interface, no worries.
If the order book is sufficiently clear and prcis, well done for and in French.

SOUNDS

Sounds are more oriented techno, jungle, do not expect to get out raliste a snare, but great potential for synthse all the same ..

OVERALL OPINION

I use this little box for 3 years in Slavic with cubase, it's a good machine with good momentum, instead of a 909 or elektron but nice. Sounds good though heavy kick to the snare 808, charley fine enough. Ring modulator function interresting. Too bad the delay can only apply to the stro lments and not to spare. It would also spares AIM outputs for each pad but is stro, period. Veloci two accents on t would also be a plus.
AI1 the couple for bass lines, the BAR is a closed concept despite its good investment for a live report qualitprix OCCAZ satisfying.
I do complment is that now, but I spent hours of pure exploded with this toy, so I do not regret the purchase, plus a c'tait KDO, lol ..
