    A small expander with about 1000 sonorits stored in a
    ROM 20MB (40MB compresss).
    sounds not REALLY ditables, top it acts by modifying the envelope, filters and effects.
    level connectivity is quite comprehensive, two among MIDI (1 thru) between two outputs and one audio headphone jack handy ...

    USE

    I had a little trouble at the beginning tame, especially since I bought secondhand without the instructions, but I was able to get through a query Roland.

    SONORITS

    YES, YES! I compose in a video game style zik RPG (Final Fantasy ...), and what's nice is that there is everything in this module is the electro orchestral sounds !dropoff window gnraliste has more than it's not possible

    - Are they GPs?
    adpend sounds, some are very well made, other blah, especially the sounds coming from the SC55. it is better not to use it are almost the same as GM or bundled Windows samples (normal is also a Roland bank).
    the percussion sounds are very numerous, and excellent quality, the best SC-88Pro is! in addition there of orchestral percussion and ethnic sounds

    - Are the effects effective and ADAPTS?
    stunning effects, they are very numerous and russis (distortion, delay, flanger, low-fi, clean ...)

    - The expression is it good? (Raction vlocit the aftertouch)?
    I have not tried aftertouch, I know not even if the module the gre. no problem for vlocit. some sounds sound diffrement as you push hard or soft (especially the synth sounds) is apprciable
    - What are you sonorits prfrez, you dtestez ...?
    I like the piano sounds. have obtained great sounds by putting reverb quite lev level and the delay, did pretty e-piano.

    UTILIZATION

    Bah with the manual (plutt well done) I've always found what I was looking for.
    Sr is that they must be a minimum interresser!
    The party effect can parratre a little off putting, but by plugging an instrument or a microphone, we quickly want to go further ... and it is not the SC88, which prevents us.
    The rgonomie as a whole is damn good even when.
    This is the Roland, so if you know a little dj this mark, you can never really lost.

    SOUNDS

    A module gnraliste excellent quality and a formidable versatility.
    The factory sounds may seem just a little isolated, but we attacked a ds real orchestration (with 3 more tracks! Lol) has sounded the thunder! Really pro.
    The sounds may be a little too "clean" in fact, it shames the only criticism we can make it. But the patch ds Personalise it by editing a few effects is another world! And big plus, he has an excellent balance of image stro. We can bring, ended not in some modules as large pat ...
    A multitimbral absolutely not making head mixer. What is saving time standard during the phase of Fast Fashion! No excessive effects. No interference. Fast set up. The key is under the fingers, and o little we know you are going, we just quickly go TRS fast, intuitive controls essential as trs. Which frankly is still the not so common!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I had the SC88 that I sell for the problem of Thun.
    Although well below the Pro version this "instrument" silent dj trs effective.
    Since I took Pro Version 2. L I spare one (for the same reason) ...
    To tell the truth.

    Report qualitperformance / trs COMPTITE same price even today.
