RT 323 has 2 drum tracks and bass track. These three tracks are edited separately.
Of course each track can play several sounds simultaneously (30 as indicated in the specs).
In addition to its three tracks the couple through Programmable sequencer / pattern, three other tracks "live" are available Packs, to add on the fly breaks unpublished or even small solos.
Midi requires the direct input from the keyboard is possible.
Noted the possibility to save / load its data via the port SD Card.
UTILIZATION
The configuration of the keys is clear and practical, sensitive pads and answers has wonderfully.
Also, navigation in banks (sound, pattern, ...) is made pleasant, thanks to the dial for this purpose.
The documentation provided is clear, and the accompanying tutorials allow a real and rapid progress, regardless of your knowledge in the field.
The writing and publishing a "song" (a pattern using "presets" or compounds) is still effective. With the ability to change kits measuring instrument, transpose the bass line, copy / paste passages, ...
The creation of patterns (or change existing ones) takes time and patience, to get a quality result.
Two methods for creating possible:
- In "pause" unit time per unit time, leaving all the precision required to write certain passages (selection of the smallest unit for the placement of notes).
- On the fly: is faster, because real-time capture of the game is then possible to catch errors in "pause".
When playing / editing, the corresponding keys light up in his plays. This feature is only necessary to follow.
A point sometimes painful, the creation of a pattern is done by advancing step by step, and if it exceeds the note to edit, no turning back ... which requires the board has the pattern, unit by unit.
SOUNDS
Regarding the sound, I needed a dry, fairly realistic, and a lot of percussion, and I'm not disappointed struts: the sounds are bleufant, and spending time, you can really escape subtle passages.
The electronic sounds are less numerous, so be careful style of music research.
Also, the touch-sensitive help to restore the effects of amazing game, I love the open / close charlest!
The bass is good, and allow to cook up his own arange (4 octaves by type of bass). on the other hand, it seemed impossible to make slides, shame for the fretless ...
OVERALL OPINION
I use the RT-323 for over 6 months, and if I had a choice again, would be the same today, but with more certainty. Indeed, before making the purchase, I read tons of reviews for the different models of each manufacturer, and stop a choice was not so simple, and it depends greatly on the style of music you practice.
A "detail" that can help the demos sounds range from RT zoom:
https://www.zoom.co.jp/english Download section.
Sound quality (and sound) and certainly its best feature.
I also appreciate the Sub-Output, which allows the assignment of such track (bass, Batteria, batterieB) has as output, useful for a separate transfer tracks to multitrack.
Small precision, quality work probably require time, and be prepared to invest a minimum, but it goes without saying
