effects, so good!

memory: you have to buy maps or often be doing the transfer, or have no need of many samples.

the connection is good (may be missing a rehearsal MIDI).

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is it simple? vi vi vi!

The manual is clear and sufficient? vi as

Editing sounds and effects is it easy? sounds okay, blah effects via the two knobs is not the top.

SOUNDS

The A / D converters and D / A are transparent? not. In addition, it will not change the tempo too, especially the slowing because cutting ..... means more than that.

The effects and filters are effective? they would be if the control was better managed.

The dynamics are respected? is very average!

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it? several years.

Have you tried many other models before buying it? a box!



What is so special that you love the most, least?

+

the mobile side
the use of effects for other devices

-

monitoring the effects

too bad there have not more than controls (general) through noon to integrate it into the HS at home.

the fact of not being able to loop the line (if required feedback hack (they have the function only on the SP555))

bpm in the non syncro

having to put all the samples in pattern in advance in order to put the tempo then (via soundbite micro sync)

sound lousy if you slow down the bpm (unlistenable)

the microphone is a shit, or it is badly placed in the machine, or both (the record is pathetic)


How would you rate the quality / price? a total rip off (it goes that I had bought too dear to US

With experience, you do again this choice? no, but I use it anyway since I still have. (The so called new SP 404 named "SX" is in the same vein .... shit!
