    What type of keyboard (synth, piano ...)? How many octaves?
    is a 5 octave synthesizer

    UTILIZATION

    The general configuration is it simple?
    not everything is not so simple, always takes time to get to the sound we wanted and sometimes you can not do it to do exactly what we wanted. The piano sound is just horrible
    The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
    I did not.
    Editing sounds and effects is it easy?
    not at all ..

    SOUNDS

    The sounds they are suitable to your style of music?
    I would not really use it to live in the evening but I think I give up.
    What are the sounds you prefer, you hate? ...
    the piano sounds are not great but the sounds of the organ are …

    the piano sounds are not great but the sounds of the organ are very well even without the change.

    OVERALL OPINION

    How long have you use it?
    I use it for 2 months.
    Have you tried many other models before buying it?
    Yes I already have an arranger keyboard and a synthesizer. eg the roland yamaha YPT 101 and 200.
    How would you rate the quality / price?
    Personally I prefer the DX-27 when I had tested. average value for one low price € 150

    FM synthesis with 4 operators and thus significantly less than the DX7 algorithms. That is the real weak point of DX21: the sound is never on top, and often a little pot.

    UTILIZATION

    It's FM, so a approhe more theoretical than practical when compared with analog. But with time we made it.
    Access to programming is quite difficult but classic 80s: poly 800 has not a nicer interface.

    SOUNDS

    We can get some cool sounds after a long lineup, but as said above they are not at the height of a DX 7. The two operators (and thus the algorithms) within it are sorely lacking ....
    Nothing to do with either a pure analog.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've since its release, and I never used it almost jamais.Je prefers poly 800 to remain in the same product line and years of output, even if the structure of poly 800 is conventional analog.

    Avoid it, rather take the DX7 that plays in the course of the great.
