Best value:
Excellent
Synth "generalist". 5 octaves, touch plastoc soft synth.
A multitude of sound (piano, ep, organ, brass, strings, guitar, bass, electronic sounds ...). Not bad effects (overdrive, distortion, flanger, rotary, lofi ...) and control (envelope cutoff ...) and especially a good patch editing capability.
Controllers classic pitch to the left which serves modulation, volume knob, knob envelope or LFO filter, cutoff knob and resonnance, and of course the useless gadget which is the pride of the Roland D-beam, which can not to use without seeming to dance tektonik ...
3 jacks (stereo headset, right, left) taken two midi (in, out of no thru). Sustain an outlet and another expression pedal.
UTILIZATION
Ergonomics is ... strange (like all Roland I feel) easily accessible controls do not correspond to those I need to live (eg reverb and delay settings, accessible only via LCD screen in a sub-menu .. .) while adjust the filter envelope or LFO live ... we will still call me jean michel jarre to blow it ...
The sound editing requires a small learning curve but the positive thing is that we are still in its purposes, although there fiddling always happens.
The manual ... can help even if the translation does not make risky very clear ...
SOUNDS
Used in jazz and reggae, he instead gave me satisfaction. A good place for some sounds EP, which far from being ultra realistic are somewhat believable.
Overall the sound is good enough for the price to make models sound rendering is very satisfying.
For a more specific and more professional (if you're a keyboard pro CD for example), it will quickly show its limitations, even if made will always be a decent minimum.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for four years at maximum capacity (adding external effects pedals, hack) I can give change while feeling the limits.
Its weight (5 pounds!) Is really handy, its possibilities editions and pretty good quality samples are rather convincing. Its interface, quality knobs (volume spitting ...), unable to repair itself (knobs and connectors inaccessible when it is removed without risking any fuck up) is reported.
The price / quality ratio is excellent, I had bought in the beginning stage groups and given my budget it was perfect, and it makes me even good service. Currently I do not have that choice would do because I need to acquire a more professional gear, but I recommend it to all beginner or have a support person wishing to compose music styles
