All user reviews for the Farfisa Partner 14

I was lucky to get a retyped to nine, all those I had seen previously were often in fair condition (which crachottent knobs, buttons etc. HS).

UTILIZATION

Getting started very simple

SOUNDS

This organ is a great effect, but it is sure that given the weight and bulk of the machine not necessarily worth the shot ...
The spring reverb sounds great but even at max is fairly unobtrusive. Otherwise sounds keyboards and drum machine are very original, rather psychedelic.

OVERALL OPINION

I do not know if I would take another but it's quite endearing these large furniture. Anyway I'm glad to have found one here in this state.
If you wonder, in mine y'avait electrical schematics of the machine for maintenance. I can possibly scan them and share them.

Organ of the 70 (mine is from 1978 to believe in the stroke buffer). Two keyboards 44 keys each and bass pedals. Upper keyboard: 4 sounds of flutes (different octaves) + 1 and an oboe clarinet. The bottom has a flute, a clarinet and a reed. 3 bass sounds to the pedals + 1sustain. All effects are activated by dashes (or more valves). the sup 'has six other effects of wind instruments (inexpoitables for my taste ...) A volume pedal vibrato + (2 speeds & delay) and a "sphere sound" (2 speeds) to a Leslie effect. An adjustment knob reverb + 2 for other keyboards.
In addition to the presets with your game (bossa, samba, rock and adjusting tempo ...)
A MIDI below, a headphone output volume + set. On the back, extra amp output jack (audio) leslie cab or if the model is fitted.
Certainly look vintage.

UTILIZATION

Pretty easy to use, with a little hack, one quickly finds the sounds. Extra amp outputs are nickel and noon to connect all Pc (a small breath persists but hey, my guitar is not better ...)
Beware, it will not move every day, this little piece of furniture weighs its weight (especially when it does not fit in the elevator).
The keys are top (I was used to those of a modern synth + nothing to do!)

SOUNDS

I like the sounds floydiens (Atom type 'Heart and Eugene Careful!) Or the Doors (When the' zics over) and just spend a little time to find the right shade. Sphera and vibrato effects are not bad at all and even bring the color. The bass is deadly, hyper hot. I made recordings qlqs Pc and they are really present and hot!
+ As I said above, other effects (wind instrumentals) are really sorry, but hey, given the time, into perspective (not a synth, either!).
Small flat for the reverb is not great, a little quiet for my taste but hey, it happens.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had two weeks. Basically I play the guitar but looking for other stuff on ebay, I came over and saw the price, I tried the blow to see. I sit quietly at the computer music and I wanted other instrumentals for my "compound" (this is easier said than done) and even if there are really good stuff VST or software, I love the old vintage stuff ( qd he saw it, my padre said "ho, qd I was young, we played over there ..!").

He just needed a big dust and hop, go!

Italian keyboard 1975.1976
c last generation is that a single circuit GNER then pass the 12 notes in the octave harmonic divisor infrieurs
Total polyphony one can play all the keys once!
atention c is not a MIDI c is to connect the pedals volume !!!!!!

UTILIZATION

Easy to use

The sound is not bad but far from the VIP SERIES (vip 205.370 etc utiliss by Led Zeppelin, Kraftwerk, Suicide)
VLOC no no after touch

OVERALL OPINION

Heavy & bulky, a lot of buzz
default: PSU review Italian condos are often dry in time
Maximum price € 50, mine cost me 5 euros! emmaus home (yes 5 euros)

SOUNDS

- The partner 16 was manufactured in early 80

It is a copy of Hammond, who has not the sound of a Hammond, but rather the sound of a Farfisa.
Result sounds very typical but very interesting.

The driver delivers a flute organ sound very sweet, interesting to make any additional cute, or how Morgan Heritage Reggae.

It sounds decent game consoles of the 80s (See piccolo or breach on the keyboard bass strings in the treble).
Others are used in many prods reggae melodica and brass in particular.

All sounds have a REAL color, which makes this a Farfisa keyboard endearing, and really interesting, unlike a lot of his brothers organs Italian furniture sometimes too "perraves.

Moreover, we find many VST pumped just the sound of the Farfisa.

The keyboards are fun to play, it's good plastoc, but hey, hey should not ask him too.

This keyboard has a real personality for exploitable prods, and really endearing happy!

So much for the sound of Hammond.



OVERALL OPINION

I use it for three months: really fun to use in models, and frankly, if it was not a fat cow
(Include a good 40taine kilos + therefore a footprint), it would come on stage with me.

I recovered with a lot of buzz, cleaned from top to bottom, everything works nickel tadam ...... except the volume pedal a little broken ....

I tried other organs furniture, but this one had really caught my attention because of its unique personality.

Farfisa thank you!
