OVERALL OPINION

- Use for 2 weeks
- Good quality price ratio

Having a MIDI keyboard of this quality mixer with a customizable, pushed me to choose the UF6.

I use it in USB mode and ds The beginning I install version 1.04.

I had no problem during installation.

UTILIZATION

I like his touch and the fact that it is aluminum.

The plastic cts drang me too much. I would see later on if it supports transport rpt shocks or not.
The setup is intuitive and easy trs.
Otherwise use is with my software is hassle free. (Live, hypersonic ...)
I had two or three times a problem of note was freezing, but since the 5.1 days I have no problem.
The ste CME is slow but it is on a war footing to meet their clientle.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it on 24 December 2005.

Acqurir before the UF6, I had a midi keyboard M-audio, Oxygen8, the m. .. in comparison.

The report qualitprix is ​​excellent, however the possibility to add extensions, such as a sound card or firewire card is a piano idegniale.

I remake that choice right now.

MIDI controller with lots of controllers:
-8 + 1 programmable faders fader dedicated volume (!)
-8 Pots multi functions and parameters
-Possible connection of volume and expression pedals
-Aftertouch ...

features comprehensive!

Only downside: only one configuration memory!
However, I solved the problem:
No. of my controllers do not change and I can just change the settings to change in my machines that have their own memories ... well, do not worry

UTILIZATION

I said that I am using this keyboard to use hardware (not USB, then!).
The various commands are directly accessible on the front (transpose, MIDI channel, split ......) which avoids having to type a long series of functions to access what you need (those who know the Philosophy of M-Audio include ...)

The dial is very convenient and allows a selection of patches and other'oeil in no time.
The manual is very clear (again, unlike other ...), but its use is most useful to set the faders / pots ....

However, this keyboard fishing by an insufficient definition of velocity curves:
frankly it's frustrating, and very accurate .... CME might have include some of +!

OVERALL OPINION

UF6 use my last few months, and really, I do not change any time soon (in fact, I would be annoyed to find a replacement)!

Having had various synths like keypad and a M-audio radium, UF6 I find very convenient, friendly, functional .... and +, it is beautiful (its sides are red blood type Metallic painting: most beautiful effect !!!!)

The build quality is very good: the aluminum hull is stiff, and the pots are nice, the pitch bend and modulation wheels idem, sliding faders and properly with the strength that goes ...

Really, the value is excellent!
Given the price, it's a must buy. And even for highest price, there is not, in my opinion, as good alternative ...

The collection's outdoor appearance srieux and simple, efficient for what I do.
Price
prsence of the MIDI controllers

UTILIZATION

I UF6 for 6 months in my studio apartment in Paris.
Trs fast playing, he started sending me via MIDI vlocits of 127 Fawn trs random image but often!

Sr Although I can correct everything in Cubase, easily.
But inevitably adconcentre improvisation in a game or otherwise, who wants sensible.
So therefore I am less and less music.
Any fawn, I ttu me, with my sensitivity when do I understand that I must degrades me, my sensitivity. But that's another story.
This is just the history of life.
Not of this keyboard is just one lment among others.

OVERALL OPINION

The random image vlocits, cares a whole floor.
wheel that rubs a controller, it does not matter.
overly large size of the machine it does not matter for the home studio.
(Unusable if scnes situations because I do not drive, and no one else today is by car. Unless a person out of 10)

- What technical specifications motivated your choice?
1> usb
2> Control assignable
3> 61-key digital keyboard (I used the Roland D20 in the past matre keyboard)
4> The control panel parameterizable
5> The remote control for sequencer

- What connector (MIDI pedals ...)?...
It has the characteristics of a real keyboard matre: SUSTAIN, CONTROLLER, BREATH CONTROL and well on the MIDI OUT & USB.
Small BMOL just a MIDI port but with the option allows you to add UF400 IN OUT & THROUGH

UTILIZATION

- The touch keyboard is it enjoyable? Should you use?
He has this dynamic contact, which offers an enjoyable touch.

- The configuration gnrale Is it easy?
Yes & no, because on my desktop PC, no problem, but the laptop had to reconfigure the remote control of the sequencer

- The select MIDI channels, patches is easy?
MIDI channels are very simple change, and has increasingly split and dual

- The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
Rather sour note, the English version in PDF technique is not difficult to read for beginners in English. But not having had the doc Franaise I contact the french distrib sent to me 1 month 1 / 2 APRS

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it?
12 months

- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
+ Comfort keys, knobs
+ Aesthetics & the soliditbr /> - The weight, but I think for a live IT'S VERY enjoyable
- The switch, which in addition to being a bad site to be the small incoveneient
- Transfo non intgrbr />
- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
Yes a dozen, but seemed small and uncomfortable, he with his imposing size allows the Settings button VENTILATED, perfect for big fingers

- How do you report qualitprix?
Trs good, about 280 E nine today (01/2007)

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
Yes, even if I coupled with a control panel for more than twelve o'clock noon for the analog controller virtual synths

Sadly, many people complained about its quality (is it the default for a SERIES SPECIFICATIONS ???), because, other than those I have not announced any other problem n 'appeared on my own. Never a single problem of VLOC or friction wheel.
HAVE A NICE PLEASURE

Especially the faders. The keyboard. commands noon général.L ergonomics
midi out - usb - power - switch pedal (2) - breath control.

UTILIZATION

Touching valable.Je've tested with EMU is nice.
There is nothing to configure, plugged in and hop.
Regarding patches: with the scroll wheel. Perfect for the studio but less well for the stage. It lacks a keypad power programs call (this is my opinion, I share with myself).
The manual is in English. (French translation that I found on the Internet is of average quality).
That said, there really is no need to manually implement this machine. everything is written above. And what better way to "practice my English" than to type a few pages of technical language in the language of Shakespeare?

OVERALL OPINION

I bought ten days ago (and I offer them for sale because it does not suit my needs).
My least favorite feature: the look flashy.
four or five models but without the plugger. Just to touch.
value for money is very bad. this machine is not worth over 200 euros. I think the UF50 is the same with another decoration ... wholesale.
I will not purchase this keyboard because it is made for home-studio owners (vst plugs etc ...) and I is part of the generation before. I witnessed the birth of the south.
