zenasium « Excellent MIDI CONTROLLER »
Published on 07/15/11 at 06:16I use it for almost 2 years. I bought this controller to test an alternative to 4000 of the same manufacturer. interest for me was located mainly in the fact of having a more flexible instrument, while having a controller (The EWI USB) dedicated to using vst on stage. at first I was surprised at the difference I felt in 4000 and play with USB. I worked on the finger on the right trade-off with the USB because it has less of an octave and has no control portamento as the 4000. In fact this is the main criticism I have to do to it. I would still have predicted that ...
I tried hard for a long time ago to play with and I soon abandoned WX7. in fact, I was not able to give me the octave system and the time, no vst. When I got my first 4000, I immediately found an affinity with the instrument, its synthesis module. This prompted me to quickly look for another controller for my vst, hence the choice of the EWI USB. Since then, I do not play my vst with my EWI USB.
What he has going for it is its configuration directly by a micro interface.
What he has less, well, as said is the absence of an octave portamento and more on the whole.
Otherwise, I just wanted to make up the fact that according to your personal acidity dermis side, I urge you to take a minute to wipe the entire instrument if you want to delay the onset of oxidation better on the instrument. In fact, I did not and he looks so old already, even more than its big brother the 4000.
Then and it's not anything you really spend time to adjust its controller. I ignored this at the beginning and I have often cursed. Then I got seriously put up a good compromise. Today I rediscovered over and over things and sounds.
I will not comment on value for money, I find it too expensive today. Of course, there is research, development. But hey, I paid 350 Euros for mine OCCAZ I think it because it was too expensive for my nine banker ...
With my experience today, I say this without hesitation. Even if sometimes it bug following a wild scene decoration or repeating, this choice I would do without hesitation. Akai has been able to continue its efforts to work on wind controllers and that's good. Because in hindsight, it's still top to work like any keyboard player to operate vst, create partitions, short play freely without stress in advance in front of a keyboard that mastery not always ( I speak for myself here)
