UTILIZATION

The manual is fairly simple and use like I managed to make my first pattern in a few hours without too much trouble and all the settings are accessible from the séquenceur.Tout is available that takes place during pattern effects and cuttof company and it's great ...

SOUNDS

There are about 400 very few keyboards sounds good but all the same the rhodes piano sound is more for the dance, but you can work with easily, and organs that go well violons.Les bass sounds and leads are all was correct, but due to some old-fashioned one that is 17 years old this is understandable.
Parcontre drum kits are almost the same we hear in the sequencer or digital synthesizers actuels.C is not realistic at all and we know it is not the goal!
The effects are very good especially the reverb and delay it gives color to the sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about a week and I have my sequence with synthesizers and the result is acceptable.
I do not like its interface specially but considering its age it's normal since today is the tape to the eye works and proffessionalisme pass from behind!
But its interface is very complete much I appreciate all potentionmetres on the 303 is probably the most complete machine that I had in my mains.J 've had one for a few months but it had MC808 sounds more modern but they were untouchable without computer so I had less fun to play with even if it was more complete on paper and with this one I ordi.Que progresses faster and is more intuitive and the relationship between man machine fills. A simple beat us very far away enmene even for me it is a must to be able to touch her without pressing stop.
I tried the korg emx 1, and although it sounds more possaidait his recent mono blocking me serious because I love rocking my own chords and make a minor chord on three tracks off it is not for the moi.Je 'I had for 130 euros I do not regret my choice and I was very lucky that it is in very good condition no scratches no screen or other picnic.
And I'm happy to have a collector in the first celebrity groovebox and I understand why she made a full house and I do not revendrais pas.Car it is small it does not take place and the result is effective field is produced quickly with the sounds of hell but some criticize the pick of all of these machines on the market that has people who criticize even the next release this année.Mais I have had a few years ca I have previously great Kiffe
It should not be too demanding that n (is not synthe jupiter or spectralis but rather a proper synth with a sequencer of fou.Qu we either techno or hip hop can easily make good delires in minutes on sounds retro Surtour if we want to deepen the warmth of presets.
And no it does not age as ca the 303 proof is still talking about it and it is sold and purchased while some models that are less than 10 years to oblivion.
Now I have a mad desire to know the 505 ...
