2u rack synth classic.
Side connections: it is not Peru, but that is a synth monophonique.une output stereo jack and the classic trio midi.il pulse is also a "+" with cv-gate control and access to the filter jack also .
there are six rotary controllers front, a button for this shift in the matrix edition, and two buttons to move through the memory and do the cut / copy / compare.
The screen is a bit dated but as it passes edition is simple.
no effect ... dommage.une LED witness noon.
Finally, as often in waldorf, there is no power button! which is quite irritating ... to have to rummage through the racks in the nodes and identify the correct power supply when not in use
more!
Inside, three oscilloscope and a filter (lp only), 2 envelopes and 2 lfos.largement enough.
there is a dedicated software via midi edition of "pulse editor", but the configuration is sufficiently clear
I never use it.
access to a series on the filter would have been welcome.
UTILIZATION
Edition of the matrix in waldorf is simple but requires all the same, a little time to adapt. But once we understood the trick, it goes very fast.
there are 5 "patch" or modulation is selected the source, destination, and the "amount".
there are two specific for the pitch and the filter.
for the rest of the edition, it's nya turns knobs and supported at times of shift to access other functions. it's a little "Synth School"
at MIDI it is very simple, being monophonic, it is assigned a channel or it is left on omni. can send sysex messages via an external controller or a sequencer to make the edition even more user friendly.
managing the memory: memoirs -40 99 users
-58 Fixed
-1 Memories "random" that generates new sounds that are going on.
to save, it's easy you press "store" and they selected a site between 1 and 40 and here.
the manual is clear but it's so simple that I do not use it.
SOUNDS
The sounds are very kind and grain of the machine recognizable.
the pulse generates large or very heavy bass leads, one can also make fx not too bad and sounds of drums not bad but its field is especially large bassline.
sounds can still be a good idea of the capabilities of the machine: it sounds really fat, analog with a grain thick, it's enough to take off your speakers! yeahhh!
for use, It can be any style of electronic music.
if you want the sound of fisherspooner, vitalic ... is a pulse for you!
the filter is really good with many parameters, but loses much of its momentum when you push the resonance.
Since it is monophonic, it will be ironing tablecloths for!
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 6 months, I immediately catches the sound of that I branch.
It is extremely easy to use, everything sounds and it's hard to stop on a config.
sound, huge, really its strong point. construction is correct and there will still many years, I hope! I use another synthe waldorf, the "rackattack" which also sounds very hard but that does not heat the analog pulse.
I bought 300 euros in hand, I find the quality / price unbeatable for an analog
memory and connection complete twelve o'clock. if he fails, I buy a without thinking.
I do not put that 9 / 10 overall score in this story because of the power button gets on my nerves ...
