CHARACTERISTICS major (For more details see other advice and / or data sheets):
- Squenceur 7 1 (rhythm) with mute tracks slctifs (+ sllctifs mute for the part ryhmique)
- 4x128 patch (sound) + 2x128 plant patch use
- 4 waves ditables sparment (pitch, filters, LFO, pan ...) by max patch (which can be said in passantpas lot of possibilities)
- Reverb, Delay, FX 1 (warning it can have an effect by pattern)
- 6 6.3 + jack outputs 1 headphone output jack 6.3
- Between 1 and 1 MIDI output
- Between 1 to switch (assignable to a ribenbelle paramtres DIFFERENT)
- Possibility of backup smart MDIA 5V (attention not found!)
- At the physical interface provided but remains relatively prvoir purchase supplmentaires MIDI controller (keyboard controllers with knob / fader ...)
- Arpgiateur (but not overkill practice, it is not that big of electribe), and a toy the D-Beam (I do not know too well what its worth I have never taken the time to learn me serve).

UTILIZATION

Well it is clear that for ct intuitive, it is not the korg ... Bcanne I love this, but hey it's true we must recognize that we must s'pencher srieusement the manual (which has nothing paiseur envy the Bible and the Koran r unnis ...) to get to use all the possibilities of the above-named machine.
APRS this tutorial ncssite that a lot of practice time, the 505 offers the possibility of CONTRL Live trs cool (inparticular mute and fader section) for APRS more paramtres on hand as I try dj said will acquire one or more MIDI controller. I know I rpeter but it is a machine that is built for the Live, live and says says CONTRL live so its still nice to have all custom settings on hand, and more amme for the composition of a master keyboard is far from being too much.
In terms of squenceur Creations and patches must also take the time. Ds you want to get a little tweak to the bottom of your or your squence millipoil patches to have to get through the menus and sub menus and sub sub menu ... Anyway once understood his logic runs well.
In short, its still a bcanne that runs well once it is handling. We will put 8 (when the manual is even a sacred by Botin comprhensible always when you do not grasp the logic of the machine). on the other hand I'm frankly not agree with the view Previous, the overall logic of the machine is far from being amateur, you just get used to it because, again, c is far from being intuitive.

SOUNDS

Then the high dbat these sounds ... Ben at dpart, it's clear the boiboite is oriented trance, techno, and dance.
Taking the patch factory (or rhythm), its a little cheap ... But the big advantage of this machine is the multitude of opportunities it offers its Contents when looking at the edition of the patches. Its often takes time but once you find the right sending her his good! His is a machine working on the synthse while it is on, you can not redo the Symphony with radio frequency, but it can sound pretty good shot chelou to be of much lctro triturated plans or trip-hop cool or good sounds jungle ... At the end we can have all the same great many low rounds and many powerful kick of breath, and lead lctro very nice ... I also have a soft spot for Charleston gnralement sounding good.
As against it clear that it could easily be accompanied by a kind squenceur sampler Korg ESX from home, but hey, each his and her fawn zik work ...
Note: Be careful, it's not a sampler impossible to get personal dedant sounds.

OVERALL OPINION

Its good points:
- Obviously the squenceur (Roland is that they actually like a!) on the other hand need to be careful, the brain of the 505 is not really that Einstein so be careful with info overload
- The pannel of sonic possibilities even if you really take time to fiddle with the sounds (most of the factory sounds as if even cheap trs)
- The fader section above practice, the same two sries mute switch
- Small convenient modes (I think particulirment the RPS to play phrases at the touch of a pad)

Ngatifs his point:
- The near impossibility to intervene on the squence live (and yeah renregistrer to other sentences in a pattern that is playing is just off ... shame ...)
- The factory sounds cheap and effects often not always convincing (except for the LO-Fi, a vritable killing!)
- The ct and empty some of the complicated ptit can (Boss book and your MIDI if you REALLY want to use the bottom)
- I almost forgot ... Ben like everybody else ... This memory card **** could not be found!

Finally a beautiful creature that's worth, got question!
