UTILIZATION

Its size is compact enough, by editing capabilities against the samples are small
(Normalization, extraction, deletion of parties outside the points of departure and arrival)
The manual is fairly clear and fairly succinct.

SOUNDS

I felt like a bad idea sounds original, but in fact the internal percussion sounds are quite good, and no lack of dynamics. The sound is very clean and neutral (which can be a disadvantage for some, but not for me).
I have not had time to test the effects. on the other hand do not hesitate to hit the pad, reaching a velocity high enough, and believe me it's solid, it's not the pads of some MCoxo!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a week and I have mastered 60% functionality in 3 hours. What do you think?
I still have 40% to work and that the effects and editing of sequences, whose tricks.
The value for money is good, and I do it again the choice without hesitation. The machine scene !!!!!!
