    Ngatif point: the mini keyboard is really cheap trs.
    The form of fader controllers are quite nice, easy to handle, it can be used like a cross fader mixer hiphop to modulate the sound, trs fun.

    UTILIZATION

    The edition of his live is very simple, just play with the faders! on the other hand, without knowing the beast, it is easy to "get lost", but at the same time, that's how I found my best patches.
    As against the use of squenceur trs is making head, my personal, I dropped prfrant much use live.

    SOUNDS

    It's going to infrabass the shrill bleep, to a sound close to a trs acid 303.
    DIFFERENT playing with parameters, the sound palette is very broad

    DIFFERENT playing with parameters, the sound palette is very broad
    Personally I use it coupled with an old guitar multi-effects (Boss ME8) and your exact vritablement is explosive.
    I use it live with a group instead psycherock, as well as studio projects for electro and hiphop.
    The overall sound of the 202 is all the same rather aggressive

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had 3-4 years and I never tire of playing with, I still discovering new sounds.
    I do not like the sequencer, too ugly to use a machine without memory!
    But using live, my god it's good, ARAG quarter-turn, yells, grsille, twists in all directions, while being able to be mild, with sonnorits close to an organ (cheap of course!)
    To make sounds (percussion, analog bleep, etc) she is doing well too trs.
    I bought 300 euros the era, and I do not really regret, and I would do without hsiter this purchase!

    This machine sounds (not in, otherwise go to another site) of pure strain annalogique. for users to plug ins or other m ... computer objects that want to use buttons other than their girlfriend or laptop, this is where it goes.
    ouscillo two most used a sub at the same time (big sound !!!!) ensured that you can choose the envelope with hauteur.un vcf assignable to either filter or VCO (ADSR, envelope, if you can ue ceq it, stay on logic). lfo with a frequency modulation tions allowing enough grin. for the connection, hit the road jack !!!!, not noon but the dcb (for sinchro with 808, bassline, TR909, Jupiter 8, etc. ....) Polyphony: Corsica (not kidding !!!!) monophonic obviously.

Polyphony: Corsica (not kidding !!!!) monophonic obviously.

    UTILIZATION

    Setup is simple and clear, almost one button function.
    Editing sounds easier for those who know the analog
    The manual is clear when you look at the light (mdr!!) Kidding

    SOUNDS

    For one of the world's smallest synths, it's the safe bougre.des well phat bass or leads of killers, sweeps the air, the foo (not a pardon is me!)
    certainly not realistic sounds but I do not give.
    its expression is good (mine I do not ....) sasi
    edition of the sequences is as a bassline on a bit daunting at first but much more interresting That a common soft. Another undeniable atotu machine you control another synth roland (with CV / gate) through the sequenceur.Pour who would take me a cretin (cretin.fr thank you) know that you can Save the sequences ( donns not the sound) using a sampler by connecting it to the place of the magneto MC202.

    OVERALL OPINION

    For almost ten years now that I use and I'm not ready to sell it.
    it runs on battery.
    I do it again this choice without hesitate

    big sound for a machine peitite

    sound incredible, with a internal sequence.
    As against it is difficult to save his sequences, there are several solutions

    UTILIZATION

    twelve o'clock via inverter gate / cv twelve o'clock

    SOUNDS

    groove amazing!

    OVERALL OPINION

    The downside is that it is impossible to save his sequences as in example 303 tb

    Analog pure and simple, monophonic (yes it is surprising to the people of my gnration! Plug into the headphone jack out of both speakers ...)
    SYNC24 sync (convertible noon with a box I think it)
    keyboard legs of flies and sensitive ultra ractif
    all plastic looks a bit cheap, it looks like a toy! trs light, small.

    buttons and faders are quite sensitive but prcis, we feel that small should not be super strong, so it is treated with delicacy and attention, and she makes good!

    A filter, and all the fuss basic no effect.

    No memory, you can always save some sort of noise on a tape magntique (!) To save your sole and exclusive pattern (a song, so plutt) to be forgotten each extincti…

    A filter, and all the fuss basic no effect.

    No memory, you can always save some sort of noise on a tape magntique (!) To save your sole and exclusive pattern (a song, so plutt) to be forgotten each extinction machine, and then replay the sound so that it finds your components. I have not tried and I do not do it!

    In the era I think that default noon and sequenage worthy of the name has earned a commercial fiasco.

    UTILIZATION

    Adjusting the sound architecture with simple buttons adquate.

    The manual is clear plutt.

    The squenceur Abrat is a kind of nature: first type the notes, then assigns them to edit a hard, failing which it will play all your notes Manir r guliere like a robot ... in short, impossible to accommodate "normal" something that fawn, but you can get amazing results with this INTERESTED mthode and barbaric.
    It's a shame there is not an easier way to give a last note, it would probably not be complicated to make t and would have given a much better ergonomics sequencer.
    Otherwise, a sampler, it is a pure joy of sound.

    I will personally try to midifier order to compose patterns.

    SOUNDS

    The sounds are great, electro DEFINITIONS, trs hot, very big, pure analog!
    Russia to have low sub wonderful, good for all sorts of blips, bass acidouilles short, it covers a range of high quality electronics.

    Mono so, but you get to sample beautiful harmonies.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's been a few days.

    Most:
    analog sound standard, the simplicity of SOUND
    the sequencer mystical

    The -:
    the sequencer mystique.
    The ratio quality price is a bit expensive because today is the price of vintage. But when you love, has not many. A remake that choice, I say yes without hsiter.
