This is a digital synthesizer. There are a number of really impressive and patch settings.
It has an arpeggiator with more than twenty possible settings.
The feel is really nice.

UTILIZATION

The grip is not easy. Even now with the manual and I have trouble understanding some of the advanced settings.
That said, once mastered the sequencer, it is damn effective: it can store up to 7 keyboard tracks in parallel AND 7 rhythmic tracks.

SOUNDS

We will not hide the fact that there are many unnecessary patches that great.
If you want, I made a word file to list interesting patches.

For rhythm patches, there are really strange sounds, drum kits but are for the most part well....…

For rhythm patches, there are really strange sounds, drum kits but are for the most part well.

I love the patches of choirs and organ.

The only downside in my opinion are patches accostique piano that sound pretty dull.

OVERALL OPINION

To make tablecloths, learn to play the piano I recommend it. Being a fan of old synths I am absolutely satisfied.

If you want to get an idea of ​​its sound, I invite you to go to my soundcloud:

Bad honntes a priori

UTILIZATION

Fischerprice style keyboard, Bontempi
Gnrale print: it's low-end (knobs, keyboard, General for manufacturing quality ...)

SOUNDS

Pathtiques sound: a sound card worth the public in 1994 (Guillemot style / Sound Blaster).
Average quality audio trs (bass and treble register of non-existent).
Frankly, I do not know why the groovebox with this keyboard is the result (the MC-505), sold ...
No doubt it impressed the DJ who think that artists are pressing random keys (style OD / C # / MI ... and FA / low SOL)
To say that I had bought APRS reading an article in the press Specializes like what it is important not to rely on them. For them, virtual...…

To say that I had bought APRS reading an article in the press Specializes like what it is important not to rely on them. For them, virtual synths get a majority of 18/20!

OVERALL OPINION

For large nullos only kind of DJ Cucuron box, the other will go their way.

OVERALL OPINION

c'que love most: the mute button for the shares ... the ease of use, especially the possibility to make the easy zik ...

c'que like least: the sound quality really "beginners", the number of tracks / parts ...*

but for a composer xigeant, you have to go his way, the sounds are not really fall down ....

I insist that for beginners, this synth is exellent to learn ...
