UTILIZATION

VariPhrase ® system gives elasticity to your audio, and this in a fully non-destructive. The possibilities of this technology are legion: in record time, you can assign the same height or same tempo all the loops you want, vary the height of a sample without changing its length, change the length of the notes of a Audio sentence for a different pace (swinging) or change the form of a sample without influencing its height or its tempo.

SOUNDS

Effects and filters are not only effective and varied. (Reverb, Chorus

OVERALL OPINION

No interface RBUS.conmme the XV 5080. No USB as Roland Vari Os.
Bought 400 Euros, the VP 9000 is a super search engine sound. With the flick of a button, it is easy and instant to vary the tempo of each sample, time-stretch or distort the sound captured at will. After purchase, a 250MB USB Zip drive, four strips of 32 MB EDO! O). I do not regret the purchase to beautiful rack.
