<ul class="ul">
What type of keyboard (synth, piano ...)? How many octaves?
</ul>
61-key synth-style.
<ul class="ul">
What controllers (pitch, modulation, sustain ...)?
</ul>
Pitch, modulation ribbon +
<ul class="ul">
What connection (Audio, MIDI pedals ...)?
</ul>
Release 6.35 Full + Stereo + midi pedal + headphone
<ul class="ul">
How many sounds, effects? What styles? Are they edited?
</ul>
128 presets that can be modified at will.
<ul class="ul">
Via a utility Mac / PC?
</ul>
There is an app that allows you to edit the patches via PC (mac?): AN1X Editor (free I think)
<ul class="ul">
What polyphony? ...
</ul>
8 or 12 notes, I am no longer on ...
UTILIZATION
<ul class="ul">
The general configuration is simple?
</ul>
The grip is immediate thanks to real-time controllers on the left. Controls the right side are more to change the parameters of the synth itself (tempo, midi, arp, ...).
<ul class="ul">
Editing sounds and effects is easy?
</ul>
Very simple and the result is immediate!
<ul class="ul">
The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
</ul>
Not read ...
SOUNDS
<ul class="ul">
The sounds they are suitable to your style of music?
</ul>
These are the reviews posted here that made me want to buy this synth. I finally found a second hand for 50 € (no, there's no typo!) In a shop in Paris. The price of the last 2 keys that are broken ...
<ul class="ul">
Are they realistic?
</ul>
IU is a shyntétiseur analog modeling. So forget the pianos and guitars. In contrast, emulations clavinet and other organs are very good. The synth sounds are purely harmonic pêchus and stuffed. For once, this Yamaha has heat!
<ul class="ul">
The effects are they effective and appropriate?
</ul>
I use them much, but they appear to be effective
<ul class="ul">
The expression is good? (Response to velocity, aftertouch)?
</ul>
No aftertouch, but the velocity is a fair bit in terms of finesse ... The tape is used to modify certain parameters in real time. It also reacts to pressure.
<ul class="ul">
What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
</ul>
There are none that I do not. Some are still difficult to use in a compound, unless you want from a trip Marsian!
OVERALL OPINION
<ul class="ul">
For how long have you been using it?
</ul>
2 years
<ul class="ul">
What thing do you like most/least about it?
</ul>
+ Ergonomics
+ Sound
+ Aesthetic
+ Price (for me)
- Polyphony
- Multi-timbralité
<ul class="ul">
Did you try many other models before getting this one?
</ul>
Roland SH201, Yamaha TX7
<ul class="ul">
What is your opinion about the value for the price?
</ul>
About me, the question does not arise!
<ul class="ul">
Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ..
</ul>
