Altalen « It holds the road »
Published on 04/03/11 at 09:57* Is the rack?
Yes
* What type of connectors (RCA Jack, XLR ...)?
All entries are in the CAR, the micro is the choice XLR or jack 6.35.
The outputs are RCA and XLR.
* What is the accuracy of the sample (bits / kHz)
20-20.000Hz (+ /-2dB)
* How many lanes, bus, auxiliary sends, returns ...)?
7 inputs including 3 switchable phono mode and two pickups with talkover.
Output, 2 RCA master output with independent control + master 1 XLR + RCA output BER
* An effects section is integrated?
No
UTILIZATION
* The general configuration is simple?
Yes, nothing really special.
* The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
French and well explained.
* The usual functions are they easily accessible?
No worries.
SOUNDS
* The console is transparent?
Okay, the original signal does not undergo special processing, the sound is clear.
* The equalizer is it effective?
There are better but that's okay. The quality of the knobs used on this model does not look too bad.
* Introduced she breath?
A little preview in the absence of signal, if you shoot more than half. (Inaudible in the presence of music).
Curiously this is not the case on the master and all the better.
OVERALL OPINION
* For how long have you been using it?
One month.
* Did you try many other models before getting this one?
- Mc Crypt SA100 / 2, ultra-basic, "quaint" and much less clean (breath and buzzing on some channels)
- JB Systems Talent, simple, lots of inputs, without effects but not so bad.
* What thing do you like most/least about it?
Pros:
- The overall ergonomics, no frills but practical.
- The sound is not bad, I agree for the moment.
Cons:
- The beat is offset rather than the gadget, nothing beats a pitch by ear.
- The BPM counters ... it varies depending on the music and not always stable. Although approximately to control the BPM, the rest you rather trust your turntables. (Should we say is not unique to this model but the same for many tables that offer it.)
* What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Not too bad, it's enough to get your feet wet.
* Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
With a bigger budget I would take more upscale, why not the contrary.
