- What type of keyboard (synth, piano ...)? How many octaves?
- What controllers (pitch, modulation, sustain ...)?
- What connection (Audio, MIDI, Pedal ...)?
- How many sounds, effects? What styles? Are they edited?
- Via a utility Mac / PC?
- What is polyphony? ...

There is enough information around for the characteristics of AF on this synth not to repeat

UTILIZATION

- The general configuration is it simple? there are actually some time to understand the signal path but then that's fine.

- Publishing of sound effects or is it easy? Well yes, for once, the buttons and between the synth are here for.

- The manual is clear and sufficient? ... The mamuel is in French and very well done

SOUNDS

- The sounds they are suitable to your style of music? For my part, I make music new age, when I hold on other synths out of the A6 I'm getting the gutter and from roads to other contingencies.

- Are they realistic? This synth is designed to make the synth: the sound is awesome !!!!!!!!!!!! Bosendorfer
- The effects are they effective and responsive? The effects are an integral part of its many services and make
- The expression is good? (Response to velocity, aftertouch to)? excellent
- What are the sounds you prefer, you hate ...?
I hate all sounds too aggressive and I love all the tablecloths and Seq. Qq lead are also fantastic

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it? I have this synth for 6 months time it takes the minimim to go around, not the other charlot below which advises trying the A6 an evening with friends: To stop arpeggiator, you have to press stop arpeggio in the top left. I do not know what should have been marked for such understanding. Can be shut off switch to stop the arpeggiator as stop and stop working an evening with friends.
There's a whole bunch of bugs listed?? And then! This is part of the charm of the bike. The Polymoog came out with nearly 400 recorded failures, this does not prevent him from being a very good synth.

This synth has a genuine personality, coucougnettes, which is rare nowadays. The sound is really good.

- What is so special that you like most and least? The best: the controllers, the look, the recall of certain sounds with the moog 55 seq. The least: nothing. And the more I really do not want to sell my bike
- Have you tried many other models before buying it? I had and I still have tons of synth. This one is high on my list (with the Farfisa 510 MKII tried with friends one minute)
- How would you rate the quality / price? at the new price (from 2400 euros instead of 4500 to exit) excellent. A former taken is another matter
- With experience, you do again this choice? ... It is clear, although the stop of the arpeggiator, must see!!
