The Andromeda is a keyboard 61 keys with aftertouch (my first keyboard with aftertouch!).

Pretty good keyboard, pitch wheel and modulation rather "beefy" and reassure you tell yourself, it's solid (metal + plastic frame on the sides).

It's a keyboard acnéen: filled pimples on the face <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" /> Multitailles Potentiometers (3 different size of some rather Maousse, that makes lab!).

My impression is that hot to me this synth looks really solid.

Screen control that could have been brighter.

UTILIZATION

I am not an expert in analog synthesis. I have a Jupiter-4 is very simple, but I've taken time to dip the tip <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="" /> Besides, I would not say that I still control or that I fully understand the causes, impacts, results of LFO, filters, VCO, VCA, etc. ...

I'm from the planet "Synth turnkey style Korg Triton, Karma, etc. ...

Andromeda has guts damn if I could! I'll have me seriously Mettes <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" />

At the same time I tell myself that if so many pots, but also that it must rather be some logic that does not seem to be as intuitive as a CIO PolyEvolver (a Knob: a function) but maybe in the end, the Andromeda is more successful "until endian".

SOUNDS

Already watching and listening to all the existing demos via YouTube and others on this synth, the sound of this synth I spoke * *. I think we can very quickly, the feeling, whether a machine will please us or not.

To return to sound, literally, I would say the mega slap.

Anecdote, when I received it (hier! January 21, 2010) I put the beast and threw myself on her headphones over his ears. With the instinct!

I go, I hit everything, I turn the pots, I module, etc. ... but only on <span style="text-decoration: underline;">a</span> sound first.
And then I say "OH YEAH BABY, IT is good that you waited!"

And soon I realized a trick .... :
- The digital effects are preset to OFF
- I'm in !!!!!!! PROGRAM

The switch to MULTI mode was almost right to me. I felt hypnotized before so many opportunities and loudness.

The sound is so good the headphones, I feel it comes out in 24-bit, minimum.

Briefly, after exploring good number of presets, I was on the buttocks.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since day 1 1 / 2 is very little, but I wanted to ask here a fresh view, instinctive feeling related. When I master, if indeed that is possible for my level, j'étofferais this review.

I hesitated a lot between Andromeda (which I bought used on Ebay, a German techno producer rather famous - and creating sound banks known <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="" /> and Dave Smith Instruments POLYevolver. Even wait a bit and take the John Bowen Solaris.

But Andromeda is a dream I realized. I remember one of my buddies had chambered a little when I read the test gear in Keyboards (on view: Orbital). It was at that time or Mr. Andromeda cost an arm and a head (at least mine!) And he said "And he, you think you can taste it one day?" Bastard .... <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="" />
Well, I was dreaming, so I Ebay, I paid, I waited, waited some more, I was anxious, nervous, I received it, I was moved.
