Value For Money : Excellent
Keyboard 61 keys velocity sensitive and aftertouch to quite nice.

It is a synthetic analog DCO (analog oscillator is controlled digitally and not by voltage)

A bank of 64 presets, a bank of 64 sounds user, a memory card slot found.
No effect. A button to select the parameter to change the wheel with alpha. Support is of value to adjust the setting chosen, it's simple!

A pitch wheel / mod, especially the alphadial, which gives its name to Juno, and controller that can shine, vibrato and so on. it compensates for the lack of buttons on the front.

The controller can juno 2 with a control surface of BEHRINGER BCR style, or ancestor PG300, PG300 or emulator that will drive a control surface, in short, is enough ....

Polyphony of 6 (not bad for an analog!)

UTILIZATION

Super simple, we can not do it all, far from it, but what he does he does very well and very simply! few minutes to save themselves a lot of variations of sounds.

The sheets are strong point is, the lower as well. It's harder to make him out dess lead, but there are ways anyway.

The electric pianos and the like are not really top. The bank offers factory sounds kitsch and useless (and other jet helicopter ...)

The accordion is very surprising, and the wheel can turn an alpha chelou in his organ in seconds and in real time.

I use it mostly with a JX3P, an Ensoniq SQ1, and a Nordlead polyphonie12 connected to a Nord Modular.
It passes through a band effect Korg echo internship, or other effects to digital.
It sometimes coexists with a virus, Blofeld, orbit, U220, Triton, Yamaha S08, jv, and samplers akai and emu
eplus but I find a place in the config that I have outlined above.

SOUNDS

The sounds are very typical analog 80 years.
We acknowledge the dough roland, but it is cooler than the JX3P, the chorus is different too.
However, it is best implemented in bcp afternoon that the P3

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two days, it is very nice to drive and use. It efacilement edit its sounds even without control surfaces.

and +:
- A sound analog characteristic that does not duplicate an incomparable with those crummy JX vsti emulators
- Solid, Metal
- Shallow and MIDI master keyboard can =
- Very good market opportunity
- Very easy to use

the -:
- The filter seems less fat than other analog JX
- A little unbalanced when in use according to the octave: the bass often seem less powerful than the mediums.


Because of its coast is a must have opportunity to enrich the set of sonoritées typed. such as the JX Series, it is likely that its coast back slowly even if it is far from Oberheim and JP8 because it is very far from the coldness of the VSTi, their abscence of character and life.
