Sacr analog synth with a keyboard 16 votes to 5 octaves, a system of modular matrix 67,000 types of modulation possible, with a panel that gives access not prt everything must be easily accessible, and if ever should go to sub menus lcd screen, it is possible to locker to keep the window always these parameters directly accessible! At noon, 1in, 1out, 1thru, 1in pedal cc, in a sustain, in a switch. A CV input for oscillator and a cv to inpout filtre.Audio: A hand stereo output, 8 stereo outputs, auxiliary 2Quit, 2 audio inputs to the board in filters and effects house! 3 (2 user and an internal factory banks of 128 sounds each named "Program" and used in 3 banks (2 user ditables and a factory, the factory bank can not be modified) internal "mix": Cumulative performance for up to 16 programs, each program can be mono or poly knowing that this little synth can produce only 16 sounds at the same time, arrangements are inclus.Les effects alesis, all except the digital distortion . Cumulative performance can be two effects which mainly consists of classic effects: delay, chorus, flanger, reverb and effects mix 2 prcits rich parameterization but with inconvniants such as speed delay not synchronizing with the tempos, to save an effect you have to use a program, it is unfortunate that there have not only bank to rescue the effects ... It is possible to save all or some memory in sysex bank, some bugs with cubase, but works with midi-ox and there is still a slot for memory cards. updater can be the OS (which is also not to dpourvus bugs) by sysex. andromeda The analog is a 16 voice polyphonic, but not multitimbral.

UTILIZATION

As it is written in the manual, it achte this kind of machine for life, it never ceases to discovering, it is vast, explorable, and at the same time while the door of the hands, one who knows about the analog synthse will quickly capt for another is an excellent teacher synthse analog, a flower for each knob graphic appears on the LCD screen with anything need to know about the area addresses: graph for vcf, vcr, vco, ADSR filters, oscillators and amplification. Do not use my mind as andro squenceur whatever it possde a minimum but trs, for against the arpgiateur is fun. Personally I think the manual is great andromeda crit, you feel the love machine derire the pen of one that the criterion is not a bedside book, but in the genus I thought he had a little Posie! As against a friend that is offered and a lot galr for this book in French, I'll try to scan and make available one of these four!

SOUNDS

In such a pure sound, it's hard to beat, even the sound chips have an incredible grain, the paradox is that hardware has so much air that could be a doubt of the concrete acoustic instrument ... but we are not in the same universe, it is here that science fiction is that the rel Ralite ... For what it is whether the sounds are suitable music I ask myself almost the opposite question: Should not I see my concept of sound and music in such a prsence bbte!
I'm not a keyboardist but before buying it I read reviews about the keys and saying they just taient lgres, for my part that I do not drang ....

OVERALL OPINION

It's been a year that I acquired this bike and I feel and I did not understand why only I am a fan, the harshest criticism I can make are related the OS can feel the mania for throwing machine not over yet on the market and we see if the sale APRS worth amliorer the system. But the I trust, I feel a qu'alesis CRER wanted a mythical machine, moog andother worthy of the great names of the synthse.De any machine that I purchased c 'is the one that I regret the least, no doubt I reclaque these sub!!
