Il Sorpasso
Published on 12/03/08 at 08:41
Already described below
This keyboard is very nice but has some limitations period (it is not possible to do both MIDI and edit sounds with the PG200 for example).
The sequence is very interesting, especially since it can be done by a trigger such as 808 or 808 type sounds (but I have not tried). It's pretty limited, but it can be very creative.
For the synthesis is quite simple: it has two DCOs (saw, square, pulse (?) And the noise DCO2) and a filter. The filter and DCOs can be modulated by an envelope and / or an LFO (sine, square or S / H). The bottom line, a high pass filter and the chorus.
UTILIZATION
The manual is very well
Editing the sounds is very simple to PG200.
Without the PG200 is not ugly at all, but it's less fun, and that all settings are only 16 possible values it is not very pleasant (good to PG200 in fact c ' is quantified all the same, but the buttons are a little illusion of continuity)
SOUNDS
So the sounds are nothing realistic but they are extremely friendly. I use it for a pop band, a lot on stage, and I dare call it a "very versatile", but there's still plenty to do. There are some effective bass sounds, pads are available with beautiful chorus (sounds very close to the layers of Badalamenti), and then a bunch of weird sounds are possible. The shell responds well, it is quite fast, you can get sounds nervous. It marks the points on particular sounds similar to piano and electric organ. It's very interesting because they are sounds that can fit into many settings.
The chorus is nice, but immediately the type synth in his time. Overall I find it difficult to make use "modern" and very often the sounds in which they are excellent new wave sounds very marked. It is not always easy to escape!
It is fairly medium, comes fairly easily in the mix. on the other hand I find it slightly lacking in brightness. And sometimes we regret the absence of desperately velocity, which could change the volume and filter.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a little less than a year. It's a synth as nice as limited. But really nice: everyone likes to watch and hear! I like carrying around with me it attracts sympathy. Among other benefits, it is not expensive, not premium like so many others, and it allows some decomplexing the relationship we have with him. The lack of velocity still imposes heavy limits expressiveness.
Thus, a synthetic small (in the good and the bad sense) to price / quality ratio perfectly honest. In addition it looks like a solid machine (I had to clean the keys repeatedly said this). The most fun synth, whatever.
