Ravaillac « A single instrument »
Published on 10/31/13 at 12:55The Omnichord synthesizer is composed of chord buttons (Maj/Min/7eme) and a sort of "touchpad" that can scan, or flatten the selected chord arpeggio.
It contains an automatic accompaniment section and a drum made of pre-recorded beats (classic Rock / Disco / Waltz ...), in addition to the main synth section that offers 10 presets, non-editable.
Output jack, no MIDI.
UTILIZATION
The instrument is very simple to learn, this is the suitable object for which no master wants to compose a more conventional instrument.
I never bothered to look for a pdf. Manual is a breeze
OVERALL OPINION
I use the OM-100 for over a month, and it is always a pleasure to discover an instrument such as this, both simple but rich in possibilities, although playing a melody without arpeggios seems impossible.
This is a rare instrument, guaranteed for small concerts, showcase type, the sound is pretty typical synthesizers preset 80s, nostalgia guaranteed.
The +:
- A new way to play the synthesizer
- Amazingly Easy
- Very good composition tool
The -:
- No MIDI
- Some limitations in the game
Fond of unusual material I am satisfied with this acquisition, it will not suit every kind of music, but still a good tool for composition and a perfect tool for those who like arpeggios.
