    6 votes, stereo output, taken 3 at noon ...

    UTILIZATION

    Although the screen is tiny, editing remains correct.
    This sounds so good expander we want to spend some time editing sounds.

    Except may be for those accustomed to the "all virtual", with screens of 300 inches!

    SOUNDS

    At a time when all the synths sound almost the same, it is good to have found a few very specific grain in an old nail as the VX90.

    OVERALL OPINION

    its grain so special, I love it!

    When I buy an expander where a synth, I want a device that will fit well in my set me in opening new sound horizons.

    It all the same to a fatal flaw!

    polyphonic synth, analog, noon and stereo (rare) very underestimated and undervalued

    UTILIZATION

    super simple, not very practical edition lacks knob, easy to use, however it is not nice shame and lack of access to manual setting, but it's a detail once the stored presets

    SOUNDS

    the filter of this synth really surprising is its main asset, interesting chorus effect, stereo

    OVERALL OPINION

    to be missed for those seeking a polyphonic analog, however, very rare

    The AX73 aussi HAD Some unique features Such as totally variable "pulse width" on all waveforms (sawtooth, square and triangle) not just the square wave. It aussi Allowed cross-modulation of the filter by the audio oscillator for a Variety of ring-modulator sounds dangerous. It featured aussi Various dual, and split play modes unison and a single (order Slightly noisy) analog chorus unit to fatten up the sound Even Further.

    A 73-note velocity sensitive keyboard Chosen in preference to WAS the 5-octave keyboards unresponsive Used by analogue synths MOST of the time making the AX73 a very competent master keyboard.</span>

    6 oscillators per voice
    1Midi in / out / thru
    1 stereo output
    1 sustain pedal
    In a sampler
    1 Line mono output
    1 output Phones
    1 tape (in / out) (to save the sounds on K7!)

    UTILIZATION

    Gnrale trs simple config (15 pages ...)
    One button auto tune to tune VCO and VCF

    SOUNDS

    DMOS few sounds on this site:
    http://www.planet-zero.org/wiki/index.php/AkaiAX73

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's a good machine with extremely simple ue easy shipping. We hack and there are sounds aisment. The possibility to pair it with one or S9xx intrt S612 increases the machine: you can play the samples through the filters analos.

    This sounds trs "Akai" even if the sound is a little more dirty than hab '
    100 factory sounds and not otherwise on k7 edition is using ...

    The rating is about 300, del is theft. For the price and reliability I would do the same choice.
    I think it's an alternative rack of Juno.

    I love the sounds of plants, they are kitsch wish, pianos
    Farfisa particular type, we must keep them Kelker is inimitable!
    the sample & hold is formidable sound of madness.

    OVERALL OPINION

    In complment a set, I make it as attractive
    an Oberheim Matrix, a little less critical,
    Obviously with sounds much less complex,
    but the machine is too big, not VSR ...
    not even sensual ...

    the important thing is not what k'il's in the box?

    Akai VX 90 is a rack-synth that offers 100 tones and effects modules and types, VCO, VCF, LFO, envelope generators. But also a Chorus in two positions, one Partomento, and a transposer.

    UTILIZATION

    Operation is very simple, however the programming is a real pleasure. With minimal experience in the research analogue sound, I arrive perfectly satisfy my wildest desires, ie to achieve the sounds in my head, if they are not, of course too complex (too often my case).

    SOUNDS

    Bought used, I have unfortunately never been able to hear sounds because the factory programs were completely reworked by its former owner. I use it mainly for sound and extra reinforcements, and arrived to find some sounds very typical Minimoog and Arp. The carpet of strings, organ and other agreements layers of Prophet's pretty good. And some special effects such as noise, the wind .. are quite successful as well. I also like the effects of a chorus that gives additional breadth to sounds and unfortunately a little breath.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use that for 2 years and other auxiliary instruments, of course it can not replace the magic of a Prophet 5 or a Moog, and although it is a little older I'm pretty satisfied for the use I make, and it is the most important thing.
