Published on 11/14/12 at 08:59I do not use it for a long time so maybe there are mistakes, I redonnerais notice.
Everything has been said about the characteristics, except perhaps on the implementation noon which seems to be interesting with the addition of an external controller (not tested yet) but allows to control the volume per unit pitch to see. ..) see the implementation twelve o'clock this sheet in the manual, but it is not a point overlooked in my opinion for its advanced capabilities.
The sequencer has the advantage of being intuitive, allowing a game on the fly + player ... not very kind with recording / editing real time without interrupting playback, ability to erase notes for each unit in playback mode leaving pressed a button, very interesting for the workflow!
mode 16 not 32 or 16 or 32 tr tr ... a length of 1 to 8 cycles
the disadvantage is that you can not enter notes by the sequencer tr above the semiquaver (when it is not in 16) ... unless I missed it ... they can record live that said, tapping the pads ...
to pass over the semiquaver in stepsequencer very kind must put in 32 in the general config of the pattern ... but if you do a piece ben started your piece does not look like anything ... if you put in 32-loop that runs on a cycle is super short and therefore requires you to follow the pattern must several sequences of pattern, makes you lose a lot of workflow ...
I see that most of the users are turning in 16 steps 4 or 8 cycles ... I personally like to do a cycle or two to improvise almost permanently retaining a view of the steps that are read .. may be is there a function that allows you to automatically track the life-cycle playing with editable cycle ... it would be great ... In any case, I did not find ...
brief the sequencer machine has the advantage of being intuitive and direct, but does not go into detail
and as already said no polyphony is more ...
I would have liked a feature to edit the number of cycles without breaking the read and read ... but never mind ... + Mode to reduce not increase the number of read is not ... not the reverse mode of reading, it would have been funny ^
Yes the sounds are editable on computer or elsewhere etc.. this is a sampler, you come home to what you want within the Smart Media card, software exists to manage its banks. I have not yet used this feature too ... for now I'm hands on the factory sounds and loops a few votes.
UTILIZATION
Yes it is not super complicated. Manual + web + triturage it comes out.
At present the effect section asks me tj a logic problem on the chain etc. ..;
The problem with section effect is that the config of the three general effects apply to all units that pass through effects. it can quickly become chaos if one is not careful.
Well you can access everything it takes to make her scream with what is on the facade ...
this is where I really appreciate the machine ... especially the display shows the value of the knob (or whatever) that you're trying to hack, which is super super super practical and can really intuitive game despite bcq limitation ... it helped me out things that I had never before output ...
From what I understood to stop playing to use sampled sound (or resampled the machine itself) live ... damage: (
SOUNDS
Sounds are cool, you can sample more.
Lamps, that I did not use at first, can get the textures ... if so monstrous .. this is really big feeling with it.
Expressiveness good with knobs, arpeggiator etc. ... you combine
effects are bad enough, but in fact are very good (comrpenne can) that the delay can be automatically brings bcq stall for the workflow instance ... lack a true management volumes for each effect
it says it is a pity that there is not a small equalizer for each unit somewhere .. eq effect is not worthy of the name (low / bass) and more food affects three and therefore can not be set independently. no real separate outputs (yes there are two more out but without effects or lamps) ... this is a little short of bang for serious work ...
this machine is more like a big mess in my opinion, with lots of space to leave to chance and the feeling, or it may be poum tchak prout tchak or if it was not mixed these sounds sampled upstream ...
In fact since I have that I do not use tricks to bypass pb eq and no separate outputs ... and suddenly I find myself doing something else, change pitch instead of eq, pan, cutoff, reso, etc ...
OVERALL OPINION
I have been using (in the sticky ends) 15 days.
I tried a em1 (the korg black not sure of the name) of a friend for 2 days but messing. I possessed roland mc8 8 ...
I used cubase sx bcq a bit recently and ableton fruity loops ... after having had enough of being glued to the pc and found great step sequencer fruity I bought this machine ... pc also made me discover recently the TB303 and tr ... by rebirth etc ... then I started to go to the hardware ..
advantage in relation to korg roland mc 808
esx real time without stopping playback to change the dial pattern and not direct access to functions via knob, + lamps ('trash, warm, rich in harmonics and responsive to ambient vibrations (not?)
)
disadvantage ... the sequencer super limited at the retail level, arg ... no polyphony arrrrffffffggggggg
I like what I've done two or three times without warning
I find it difficult to use this machine for a clean ... but to "play" with him as an instrument in its own right and free style that looks interesting
used may be interesting
