UTILIZATION
The general configuration is it simple?
The setup is extremely simple. Installing the firmware update has no problem with me (Mac OSX Lion).
The manual is clear and sufficient?
I have not used. Or to install or to program the synths.
Editing sounds and effects is it easy?
For my part, I usually work with AU / VST (i), I knew exactly what to expect so regarding publishing pushed. The software provided Vysex plays its role, everything is clear (at least for someone who used virtual instruments).
Audio interface mode, it behaves very well. The audio by USB (I do not know if you say it like that, it's great. I used it with Logic Pro and Studio One, and nothing to say, everything works perfectly.
SOUNDS
Sounds they agree your style of music?
Yes, sounds quite suitable to my style. (Electronic Music, Hip Hop, G-Funk ..)
Are they realistic?
Realistic enough? Sounds are effective, it send it enmêne synth or the like it! It is "Violating" and can be sweet too. Acid or liquor.
Very comfortable in what I do.
The effects are they effective and responsive?
The effects are crude décofrages at first. Just to tame resortir all quintessence.
The expression is good?
Yes, it is very good, with no aftertouch cons.
What are the sounds you prefer, you hate? ...
Acid, it is the king!
Bass, it emerges as a leader!
Planing, he knows managed as a major!
Imitate, it is not his idea!
OVERALL OPINION
How long have you been using?
it's been a good week that I use and I triturated sounds in all directions.
What is so special that you like most and least?
Most is the sound that comes out and its possibilities.
I've clearly forgotten Sylenth and Massive.
Did you try many other models before buying it?
Many VST yes!
How do you rate the quality / price?
400 bullets a real synth, uh! how to say, the feet!
With experience, you do again this choice? ...
Yes absolutely, at this time, I would do this choice without hesitation! It is just my way of working.
