Premire thing when you see it for real, it is impressive! It's true the photos, it does not seem large but in the trs Ralite is quite the opposite. It is large and heavy, with a casing metal. In short, she inspires confidence.

the connection is really complte either midi or audio. I must say that I do not use all possibilitsa this level l.
You can change many of trs paramtres in real time thanks to the knobs on the left. The pads are large and molleux a wonder ;-)

As for the sequencer is also full rev ... see complex. You feel a little lost parfoit and it takes time to absorb the philosophy of the System.

Several ngatifs point: The screen pokey, no manual in French, no possibility to edit his drumkit (a little annoying especially with the original rom dedicates the percussion and drums )

UTILIZATION

This machine is anything but simple, and the small screen does not come fix things. However, the basic opration are carefree. Some features are all the same damn badly, I think notament the multi-purpose. Navigating the myriad menus is sometimes a bit tedious.
Editing presets is also quite complex. There are four layers (layers), or 4 tones that can overlay ... Unfortunately no shipping for drumkits SPECIFICATIONS: '- (
All parameters are ditables but once again the small screen forces you to play the wheel fawn excessively.

Submitted to the manual as a big paved A4 black and white. It is rather clear and includes examples, but sometimes seems to go a little faster on some points (a ok is trs staff). I think reading is essential, we must not be too allergic to English.

SOUNDS

Card orgine "protean drum" is oriented drum and percussions. There are many kits "ralistes", the latter uses different samples depending on the level of VLOC. This allows a game with the pads really natural. TRS is a good place! There are also a multitude of electro and hip hop kits (some with simulated chloride) in good order.
Unfortunately, we quickly realized that many presets are redundant at the notament drumkits "ralistes" which uses the same base are ... not good!
There are also bass, leads, fx, organs (particularly nice!) Etc.. all of good quality. A lot of original sounds already and what good care.
The multi-effect offers many beautiful and reverbs, chorus / Fang are a little less extraordinary delays of trs cool.

In the end I would say the sound quality and are effective. This is also is the main asset.

OVERALL OPINION

APRS several months of use I came to clearly identify the qualities and faults of the machine.

Pros: - the ability to edit presets trs shoots.
- The sound of trs good bill.
- Pads and controls faade.
- The ct "pro" machine.
- The locations for additional Roma.

Cons: - The catch all piti.
- Complexity.
- Roma protean drum home can be a bit limited.
- Instruction in English
- 3615 ebay to find Roma :-(

In short it is a machine strong personality of default dpourvue not really sure, but endearing. Opportunity in the prices of command stations are becoming lower, so why not try the experience and s'offrire E-MU sound :-)
Personally I would do this choice.
