All user reviews for the Alesis QS6

For the year 1996, perfect ...

UTILIZATION

Editing sounds is easy and logical enough, despite its small screen.

SOUNDS

For an "old" synth it still in the womb. Sounds like pads, tablecloths, lead, FX, are absolutely gorgeous! Compared to my current machines, such as Jupiter or Motif XF-80, it has absolutely no QS6 a blush at the synthetic sounds, it sounds warm and fat, he has a short made in the U.S. and the difference is well feel in relation to the Japanese machines (which I do not criticize). The effects are also very good.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this Alesis QS6 used in new condition. This synth was younger I was always attracted, now I understand why ... It is a construction and an exemplary finish, like the Jupiter-80. This QS6 is very reliable and its design is quite original. For my part, if not exceeded its characteristics, such as screen or editing, this synth does not suffer criticism. It's almost a vintage but it sounds so good that I could not separate myself.

5 octave dynamics and aftertouch. Pitch modulation and enjoyable to use.
Not bad its limited edition but not when using the PC Editor
But the production quality is superb. Super solid chassis, keyboard trs enjoyable.

UTILIZATION

No knobs to ship direct from four sliders ... a little by the synth Exceeds current level. Luckily there is a good editor PC

SOUNDS

Sounds dynamic sounds enjoyable without reaching the summits.
Piano EP: although no claim of competition (Roland and Emu)
synth lead: bo but lack of expressiveness since no filter in real time ditable
organ: the assi nice but the dire Leslie
pad: superb
string: Excellent
Percu: trs good many EHJV

OVERALL OPINION

This synth is a good basis for trs who wants a good frame with good sound. It can serve as a small basis set. His successors seem to have the audio portion amliorer (Qs6.1 and QS6.2)
I think that sounds just limited by the lack of expressiveness crativit. But the dynamics are and then it got a question ..., O)
