    GEM Rodeo 37Published on 03/09/10 at 15:12
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    Electronic organ to 3 octaves (+ OD the 4th octave). Not sensitive to the touch
    Headphone
    Volume control
    A volume control the pace
    Control the tempo of the rhythm
    5 basic sounds (Flutes, Brass, Reed, strings, wah-wah), each controlled by a switch (option to enable multiple simultaneous). Not editable.
    1 effect (vibrato), controlled by a switch. Not editable.
    6 rhythms (Latin, Rock, Blues, Swing, Waltz, March), controlled by switches. Not editable.

    UTILIZATION

    The configuration could not be simpler, we choose a sound, a rhythm and eventually playing. You can activate multiple switches together to increase the number of sounds and rhythms available.
    The sounds are not edita…

    The sounds are not editable, so ...
    I do not know if the manual is clear, I found this organ in a landfill, I have more or less patched up and go. But frankly, given the thing, we do not need manual!

    SOUNDS

    I am a scratch rather rock / metal and everything in it is the distortion, so this organ does not really suit me. But hey, I used from time to time because it sounds very "generic", which I find no personality (the different ways it makes the same sound with different EQ ...) so we do not notice it too in the background, and I used mostly to train the keyboard.
    The vibrato effect ... I'm never really served as a share button is broken (the effect is active, but the spring of the switch is broken at once ...), and I find it too "present", and as it is not editable, well it sucks.
    I remain rather sounds the most "severe" alone, mostly the voice "Reed" and "Wah Wah" because it makes me laugh). It does not suit me specifically, but that's what I "prefer" in this organ. My key string is broken (where the spring is OK, but the voice sucks), I do not know at all if I like it or not! I find the sound "Flutes" far too dull. I do not know at all why they called it like this ...
    No expression, not even sensitive to touch. It must be a very old keyboard.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 8 months, more or less active according to my desire to learn the keyboard.
    I have not tried, I was not looking keyboard, but I saw it in the landfill, free. I did not spit! It's rare!
    The feature I like is that it is wood! I prefer it to plastic. But it is purely aesthetic. Although AC must have an effect on the sound too ...
    The price / quality ratio is excellent in my case since I have not paid. I saw on a site selling a model was sold to 89 € (probably saw opportunity in the age of the animal). Me I would have given him great maximum € 45/50 brand new ... But hey.
    With experience, if I find the keyboard again, or better, or more to rot in a landfill, I think not and I take me! Seriously, if I had to buy ... Bah, already have a model like that AC is no longer (not even sensitive to touch ...), but ... I probably would take something else!
    Anyway, I got it free, it works much. Then I like the cheap side, which gives the impression that the object will fall to ruin one second to another, do not ask me why! In short, despite the notes I made, I'm glad me and my little Rodéo37
