    UTILIZATION

    The very simple issue to everything, provided you have a fairy fingers or hands of children
    LFO: three forms: random / tri / saw
    + Speed ​​and delay

    Section MIX: two oscilloscope (half) and two square waveforms and sawtooth height 16/8/4/2 /
    detune and a semi tone or Disagree to grant the oscilloscope

    mod section applies to a two oscilloscope:
    approx 2/man/lfo for PMW SOURCE (watch the speed remains fixed LFO pmw)
    env / lfo depth / pulse width.

    classics & RESONANCE FREQUENCY filter has 12db/24db
    MOD DEPTH + source / either the envelope or lfo

    and finally two classic envellope comuter by a small button switch (ENV 1 / 2)
    attack / decay / sustain / release / velocity

    the triggering fun to play with portamento
    the outbreak notes 3-position: autoglide / single / multi

    SOUNDS

    It sounds pretty good for its size, but do not have the ROLAND, KORG and other vintage stuff
    I use it more for the sounds of good leads and some synthetic low.

    OVERALL OPINION

    The knobs have tendency of poor quality and badly old yellowing keyboard not to mention the hull of the synthetic all plastic too light and fragile but it would shock even so

    I égalememnt the SBS and the rack version BS
    if you're curious,
    Here are some improvements that are available on the racks versions:

    a synchro cv gate in / out very useful
    audio input to filter a signal
    99 memories
    a switch that allows you to set the ENV 1 & 2 at the same time
    Sync an oscilloscope for 1 or 2

    Here are the differences between version keyboard and rack version
