Trelaire_2 « Not crazy »
Published on 08/24/12 at 17:11Not really an organ and not really golden.
An electric blower feeds free reeds on a third two octaves, producing a half-way between an accordion and a reed, not different games, only one door for opening more or less in the arrival of air to reduce the volume (but having its counterpart in the fan).
The next three rows of six buttons to play an accompaniment on six agreements (Minor, Major and "low"), note that this module has its own dedicated reeds.
So no audio output or MIDI if it is a power outlet classic.
UTILIZATION
Very easy to use, no need manual to understand its use, chord names is listed beside each row of buttons in the accompaniment section. The trap volume tends to get stuck.
SOUNDS
The attack sound is soft enough especially polyphony, or when the door is open, which excludes a rhythmic game. Reeds tend to tune (on the edge of quarter tone) over time, making it difficult to play with other instruments. Apart effect kitsch or retro I do not see what style this type of instrument can flourish, the final sonant less an accordion, and with less chance of a harmonium stamps.
OVERALL OPINION
I recovered in an attic, it could probably have it back shortly, the model is interesting in its design and in the testimony of a certain era, but few opportunities for exploitation are possible.
To recover in a flea market for a ridiculous price to expand its collection of old keyboards is possible, but do not go crazy amounts of money to invest in this kind of instrument!
