16 pads for the sounds of 4 + 16 Pads able to program rhythmic sequences
Ability to import their own samples (really excellent) and tweaking with the synthesis of the software and for much without a mouse thanks to control the Muste ....
Internal mixer with separate outputs, volume, pan and two auxiliary
Possibility of 2 + 2 internal effects effects on natural enemies and 2 master effects
Many of the Bar are emulated legendary TR-808, 909.606, Lin-Drum and many other
The sequence is in the style of Roland
I personally do not like the styles of MPC when my choice for this sequence is simple Spark can be quantified or not quantified
he is working on four measures and it has a pattern or song mode with remarkable simplicity and speed to mount a really good songs but really it is the reason behind my choice + control software alliance is perfect
For the rest see the documentation in French managed to clear the site and available

Configuration is very simple to just 1 / 2 day to understand and control the software and then finds himself already created the pattern and position to mount a song
As mentioned the manual is clear and sufficient
The sound effects editing and sequencing is very simple in style for the Roland sequencer "love"
In fact initially I wanted to take the Europa Analogue Solutions, which is roughly the same price but requires an additional sound module is the control it emulated the Bar can import samples and personal software for increased visibility edition through the computer screen so my choice was quickly made

In fact I do is very little sound suggested I took the time created my own bank and I must say it is great once in a while I'll get a drum or percussion in the bank but available Basically I really used my own samples was for me the purpose of this purchase

The aesthetics of control is managed super is not super plastic pads meet the style reminds me a bit was originally in fact I think it was created for this purpose because the couple with resemblance is obvious I found ....

All Bar emulated are made of now it is virtual so it is not in the real hardware that I own did nothing to still see I have a MK3 Vermona DRM1 I must admit that the sound still markedly better

But after the sound if there is a little blah you have to take the original

As mentioned above I use it mostly with personal samples so I did not give too much notice of the sounds available with the software so it's Aturia more than correct these I find them rather successful emulation

I use it since its release

I have not tried the other model because the only product that I think is in the same style Maschine I do not like editing the sequencer and the more I really do n'accroche with products from NI

I I love most
for its speed sequencer rhythms and songs
ease of access
Quality Control
a formidable and well thought out ergonomics
the ability to import samples
Internal effects are very good
value for money

I like the least I
missing functions to the control that makes use of the mouse when it is necessary functions could be integrated without regard to the departure for a higher price but one that would have added one more really a shame really .... Spark damage
There will surely be a pseudo MKII version in order to add new function and that is that all those who believed in this duo Soft Control "me in this case" will be disappointed unless the Arturia is a good idea to make a update the control by a recovery or other .... a think ....
The value for money is correct
With the experience I would do the same choice is more than some
