Polyphony 8-channel, multi timbral 4 shares
full of knobs
arpgio, LFOs, three oscilloscope, full of filters, a modulation matrix
Connectors supplied without such a virus is more spares outputs and effects. Ion on the widely criticized the lack of a rverb.

UTILIZATION

It was my first real synth does. I tt as the Electribe ESX before him.
The handling is quick and I had bought for this reason. Indeed ds fiddles that we landed a knob at the right menu. Each menu n'excde than 5 pages with 3 tabs. Used to it quickly and it's great practice.
ON called easily and it is not difficult to save. I appercu APRS him every synth works the same Manir and so he does trs educational for me without opening the manual. All this has good and trs Manir logic.
I never used the editor even if I think there is one for micron / ion.
I chose this ion rather than about one micron for its ease of programming.

SOUNDS

Sounds are typs. Ca me or made me think Vitalic Mirwais. It sounds modern, aggressive but can be softer.
Percussion kits s'intgrent well in the mix but I do prfrait the drum station, drum machine and drm mk2.
He was used primarily for leads in full voice.
The arpgio is nice but not enough so I have not programmable or pig. Any fawn I squenait (not the Ion arpgio)
I had probme drift: it supports diverse four times on the same button and it does not come out 4 times the same sound.
The keyboard introduced me some buttons a little noise in the sound.
The output level is not lev masters except of course as in full voice.
The grimey bass taient and without dynamic and treble too aggressive.
9 for the original sound, and because nothing is perfect but I am forgiving because if I took into account the output level, the drift, lack of dynamic and difficult aspect of the sound Dfine is a 7. So I stop the average of two: either 8

OVERALL OPINION

I kept 2 or 3 years. I'm 500 and I spar against adding 100 in my pocket for a 2 and a rack north juno 106. Northern rack me out of similar, better Defines, faster and takes up little space and juno is that bonus.

+++++
well for the electro
sounds modern and fit in
easy to use a knob activun menu that appears automatically
it is beautiful and powerful
programmable knobs and arpgio
modulation matrix

-----
crappy keyboard that introduces noise in the sound
drift
mals bass and treble Dfine aggressive
lack of effects
arpgio enough programmable
took up too much space the light of what he brought against one who has succd home: the north rack.

Despite sometimes I miss him because I liked the grind (bought new in Mixexprience 820 (c'tait the cheapest) and resold 500)
800 c'tait a bit expensive and it is 500.

Since I had a virus A: for me and what I do is the worst, then comes the Ion and then north at the top rack. I dtest Trance sound of access that everything is relative since it is to turn the knobs to customize its sounds: even when I dtest.
I have a Juno, a sunsyn a Monomachine, a DX200, a v-synth. The Ion is DIFFERENT from all a.
If I remember correctly the Ion sounded a bit like an x-station with more personality or as a rack in the north more dirty.

Now if I would take a waldorf c'tait again, but guess what I prfre dsormais the flavor of real analos.
