SOUNDS

Great sound quality is lost when comparing the same sample played in the computer and it played once in the 8 mpx we are well aware that there is not.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 6 months, I bought it to trigger some samples on stage.
Once the sauce in terms of sound it makes the job for small interventions, the big downside is that once during the balance by turning it did not find the sounds by putting a format error " invalid "while in rehearsals AC worked great, I tried everything, I resigned off telling me that I will go to the concert.
I relight amount on stage and the miracle sounds are loaded ... Unreliable and scary if one makes them indispensable.

When you play or triggers a live sound on one or more pads things are going pretty well, but huge downside, when the LP function is used which makes the sample looping, there is a rhythmic shift when it triggers several at time.
I've done my curls using locators to split or even tested with ready-made loops, although the trigger has ensured all along but when you let it run a bit from 1mn ca ca turns bizarre and shifts of worse ...

Regardless of the price of a machine, it is not reliable.
It is little expensive but also dangerous on stage knowing that at least 20 or 30 seconds to wait for loading a sample of a minute (a ambiance for example).
We must therefore anticipate loading samples.

In short I'm looking for another machine to trigger my little things and noise intro.
