UTILIZATION

Operation is extremely simple. The presets are organiss by catgories, each containing eight presets, buttons allow the center to select. The pitch bend and modulation are easily accessible with the left hand.
Unlike MicroKorg, the keys have a standard size which is apprciable. It is regrettable aspect of plastic knobs, even if a person I do not drang.

The edition of the sounds can be Fully on the keyboard, it is useful to quickly change trs few dtails (the arpgiateur etc..) Fully built by a patch against this Fawn can rvler tedious! The edition via the software is practical and well organized plutt.

SOUNDS

Word, a sound. Analos fan of vintage (I possd), I am confused. Although sr was not the same grain as the old machines, the filters are less radical, but even when mchamment sounds good. Depending on the situation, it may s'avrer even more relevant in a mix ...
J'apprcie ct versatile of the synth: there are good presets organs and electric pianos, tablecloths fawn film music, and fx ...
The vocoder is of great simplicity and provides an excellent sound. It works perfectly with the supplied microphone.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about 1 month.

For the price, it's all good: the sound is great, the effects can be placed directly into a mix, vocoder, the sound capabilities of Fast Fashion, the versatile ct (bass vintage complex to the ground) ... It is the branch has rings now!
I see no point ngatif one or two assignable knobs supplmentaires t have the nice but I'll look far. The report is qualitprix trs good.

I wanted a synth Reduces clutter, cheap, for homestudio and live with sonic possibilities Varis (electro / soul / funk). On all these points it is my expectations, I do it again so this choice without hsiter.
