Value For Money : Correct
No repetition for CHARACTERISTICS. An effects section with enough complte use relatively crative.

UTILIZATION

Manuel trs well. The handling is quick as long as this is not your first sampler squence.

SOUNDS

The original sounds are average, at least for the electro-acoustic components. To the extent you put your own sounds is a flexibility that becomes trs enjoyable, given the possibility of transformation thanks to the effects of sound. To avoid, however: the reverbs are really rotten ... it is the only BMOL to the effect section. For the squence we can say that it is quite limited by the number of sounds that can be set simultaneously and by the fact that you are only working on measures to 8 max. In the beginners it's a bit frustrating but suddenly the focus on other means to compensate for a particular use of a multi-PC.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for almost two years (Fawn less intense it is true ...) and I keep discovering in some capacity. But hey, let's say it right now, the quality of this machine is the sound! It is delivered with a pair of 12AX7 Electro Harmonix in the wood and balance as they say here ... And even to the del gain, heat lamps is a real bonus if you like analog sound. I possd a Yamaha RS 7000, an mpc 1000, roland SP202 and this electribe. This is by far the one that has the best sound (to the mpc). Otherwise rve t would have the squence of rs 7000 and the sound of Electribe ... but the point is not good l. Report quality fair price, but it is a machine try before you buy because it is to see if limits do not psent heavier than its benefits in the balance ... and everyone has to say according to his needs. For my part, I am satisfied with my purchase.
