UTILIZATION

Rather easy to program, one hour of APRS lecturedu manual, I started to work out and I have a Blues 4 minutes with the girls and the final, all in 5-6 minutes.

Everything is ditable, a drum kit also includes the rglages effects, pan, volume (drums, percussions, bass) and a bunch of stuff that I gorge but it does not matter because the r tings default trs suit me well!
It can also control the bte via MIDI but I have not yet tried ds Because it's too complicated, I zap (see my opinion on the software edition music)

Only problem, the manual of references is in English.

There is a rapid manual in the box, in French, but translated by an INTERPRETATION who clearly has never seen since a battery translated by systmatiquement BASS DRUM!!
Should dare!

So every time you play "kick" you need to think a 4 string bass. It's simple right?

on the other hand, if you read English fluently, the record is very well done!

I put 6 because of the poorly translated manual. Na!

SOUNDS

Trs sound clean and ralistes, Sampling 24 bit, a means. Compared to my Yamaha synth 12 years means trs well the difference.

The bass sounds are average but the outputs can control a MIDI synthesizer or sound module it to improve.

The 12 pads are sure the sensitive and VLOC VLOC curve is adjustable.

For the price it's all fine.
See the remains solid in the time.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a week in home studio to accompany the songs on guitar just for rptitions.
I have not tried but seems to live entirely possible thanks Fill in the function that allows you to switch from one pattern to another with a single tap of the foot with some bonus bearings and tchac poum the most beautiful effect!

Before I was using my PC with LIVE but really c'tait gas plant, I had 30 minutes before 15 Russia from a simple bass line + battery measures 16 and then play the scratched with a mouse port labor to drive the PC is not really the top.
I also tried using my old Yamaha synth EX7 but the time to look for the pattern of 23 disks that goes well etc ...

With the SR18 is simple, one IDE and hop straight into the box (I use one as an Jamman recorder) box rhythm guitar + bass line and rhythm There's APRS has more jam on it.

A good point: you can put batteries to power it and go camping with!

I think this is a good choice to make RPET or live at the bottom of a bar.
For 245 euro must not do without.
