Published on 07/17/12 at 22:04The Crumar Multiman S is like a hybrid , it is a analog synth and a sample library. All in one vintage style board, it has been around for a while now and people have been using it for many years. I still get a chance from time to time to get my hands on it and lay down some good melodies with all of the patches, some of the piano sound patches are really good, especially the brass. The brass is probably my favorite sounds that come on the Multiman S.
UTILIZATION
Its not exactly easy to use, but after you get the hang of the flow of the keyboard and get use to where everything on it is you will have no problems. If you are use to working with vintage gear then you will have no issues learning to use the Crumar Multiman S. I have never seen a manual for it, so im not sure how it is. But if someone still has the manual for it, then my hat goes off to them because most people wouldn’t still have a manual with a board this old. So if you purchase one, don’t expect to get a manual with it.
SOUNDS
The sounds are pretty good, like I said brass is my favorite. The brass patches sound unlike any other brass that I have heard on any piece of analog gear that I have used. It really is one of a kind brass and I have even sampled it and exported it in .wav format to use some of those patches when im on my computer at home.
OVERALL OPINION
Very good board, you will be thrilled if you can actually get our hands on one of them. They are hard to find because people just arent really selling them. I get to use a friends, I wish he would sell it to me.
