Best value: Excellent
You know CHARACTERISTICS.
It's an old machine but I find that there is enough memory and CONTRL.
No sounds, no style, no effects.

The buttons are worn with time trend. A small cleaning contacts with toothpaste and a graphite lubricant sufficient to provide nine (mtal brush the plate contact with toothpaste, clean and then gently brush with super fine steel wool. Then , coat the rubber washer black with a thick layer of graphite lubricant. Attention is black and marking, therefore, use a Q-Tip)

You can not call in not not, it's a shame and it is the only ngatif my opinion.

UTILIZATION

What I like most from this machine is its simplicity of use.
Everything is extremely simple base. Squence are very easy to edit. If a track does not flat, it can be again by pressing three buttons.
All parameters are easily ACCS!
The manual is short and clear and almost useless.
Only weak point: not impossible to accommodate in it.
Indeed, it is quite difficult to play a fast bassline (like TB-303) in real time. However much the APRS quantify, is often your exact ALTR. You can always play bass on a slow tempo but becomes somewhat tedious. Remdier to the situation I got an old Yamaha squenceur, the QX SERIES, bought $ 15 on eBay.

SOUNDS

I can not say that sounds are suitable particulirement my style of music.
Otherwise, the trs squenceur suits me well.
Should indeed for any style of music. Tehno, trance, house (Orbital). Personally I play which is similar to the progressive electronic trs well and I get to make me dbrouiller squence arpges and the "Tangerine Dream".
The expression is good trs my opinion, it records everything that made my keyboard, what more?

OVERALL OPINION

I for six months.
What I like most is its simplicity.
In its lack of squenceur not is not a default. But I live with!
I never used to squenceur hardware before, except that of a workstation. I must say that the dtest squenceur software; far too complicated I prfre 100 times a squenceur hardware, much more dynamic!

Trs good report quality price. Ensured under $ 100 on eBay!
Oh yeah, I would do the choice!
