5 octave keyboard synth VLOC the sensitive and aftertouch, pitch modulation and Controller, audio connections, midi in, or and thru, volume pedals, sustain and breath control. 99 original sounds, 99 user memory locations internal and another 99 on the map memory optional. 8-voice polyphony. A squenceur 8 tracks, an overall effect (Reverbration, chorus, distortion ...). The edition of sounds and effects is very simple, can be too much? But we get much fiddling to get sounds really weird. Still, by itself it is a little thin, however associated with something else in a mix can be a fun ...
In total, today CHARACTERISTICS seem pretty basic but it was in 1991 when ... the era around 4500 francs. On other sites APRS coterait it today around 150 euros. The YS 100 is the same without squenceur.

UTILIZATION

A good place for the manual, is clearly the way to beginners who wants to enter the world of synthse FM. Still, the edition of the sounds could not be easier, it always comes out sounds and can also serve as a keyboard matre noon, but do not ask too much when even!

SOUNDS

The sounds are not at all raliste between the piano sound of FM Ys200 and that of the Promega 3 Gem there is no picture! to say the least. It's oprateurs FM 4, used in electronic music for bass, but not ground for sounds ralistes ... but is it a synth made for this?
The expression is correct and more with the pedals (I never tried the breath controller).
I use it for bass sounds and ground abroad. There are some presets fun, but got a question ..

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since its purchase, it made me discovering the world of electronic music, which had me practice the piano acoustic I qu'tait Discoveries that a s sequencer, a MIDI synth and with a good school. But I also regrtt limitations: 8 note polyphony is not standard and especially the impossibility to combine effects in squenceur, 8 tracks but only one injury, but the overall effect for 'era ...
With the exprience I would do this choice may be, even if the technique has the significant volumes that's what we did and the FM has not said its last word!
