Value For Money :
Excellent
Desktop Expander 2 mono 6.35 jack for audio output, a headphone jack 6,35, 1 in afternoon, 1 USB. Updating firmware via USB or MIDI (USB and PC recommended) banks A to H of 128 sounds each. Some sounds are muffled qualifier "mono" meaning that they are monophonic. For the rest see manufacturer's data.
UTILIZATION
The general config is very simple except for one thing: the update of firmwire. The downloadable pack on the waldorf site provides 2 MIDI files and an executable for mac. Nothing was found. Xp pc, same thing. I've finally succeeded in reading the file "slowmidi" with windows media player (as with cubase, even in slow tempo, it did not matter) The manual suffers from a flaw in my taste: no sound list of works, practical check her favorites. Editing sounds is very intuitive, it's true forte. +: Edition of sounds and perspectives of sound creations. +: Number of Sosna +: + materials used: design and compactness -: output converters -: sounds mixed (with respect to the gain) -: firmwire capricious, roof upgrade -: bugg on older versions of the bones
SOUNDS
Ay it's the rub A PRIORI (Update: after having fiddled a little gear and make some settings, it is difficult to understand how a machine as small and inexpensive little do so !!!). Take time to edit at least the speed to win a little fishing (even to lose a little velocity) sounds quite a suitable one of my styles of music if they were not as unequal. I said. a sound al the other difference is enormous momentum, barely audible over the one with the gain and volume background, ready to blow the speakers on the following (especially in the high mids ...) It's a shame because the machine has the potential to edition, (added after a few days of use: an old korg stage echo just a colorful and thicken the sound, with a test tube preamps ... so the matter could be a bit steep initial become an asset if you take the time to find what we want to give her the craft) No sounds are not to be realistic because we are in an analog modeling synth has. The term is random, haphazard chance. on some rhodes, without playing with velocity, slamming some notes much louder than others (notement when you arrive at the end of the reasonableness of a prior note / / CF SHIFT Notice INGRES offering a solution to this pb)) significant differences depending on the version of os (added after a few days of use: I'm still on my first impression, the audio quality is slightly below the factory presets, but the results obtained by fiddling legerment gain, leaving on effects of vintage etc., suggests a potential for an excellent value for money despite these faults. In fact if the beast is "not finished", it is because it is our creativity to finish the job and to personalize the device. )
OVERALL OPINION
I used it for 6 days and therefore may be I'll have better ssurprises. It's time for the module that owns the sound quality output "right" the worst of my set while in the same time he has in his stomach as many sounds that I like. J have tried many models before, including some that I have acquired new or OCCAZ. (Korg x50, MicroX, emu orbit, roland jx3p ...) even some synths sound wider (DiscoDSP Discovery) My criticism on the relative coldness of her are closer to those made on their time sampler akai s1000; it their reproaches their coldness. But thanks to this neutrality, the matter is more malleable. It requires more work, but offers more possibilities. This flat is provided with a take precautions. J loves his compactness, however, metal, sboutons, beautiful screen. The value for money is not bad in nine (J stays more skeptical the first day), really good on occasion! The competition level compared alesis micron moved a small keyboard for the same price, korg MicroX buried level sound presence and control in real time, and has a variety of sounds and general compatibility gm. But once that rule is a bit more if it is waldorf obvious. Do not stop at the first impression ...) (but the waldorf edition has arguments which makes it even more rallied his lack of defects in layers of sounds. (Added after a few days of use: however, for edition of the sounds, the blofeld that buries the Korg, and I think that term can be quite a thing out of the machine is not cooked but c may be more creative ... - ) I understand better wash my predecessor, who directs the technomens to spend their way) For the small price and despite my short bursts of reds, it's still interested in a machine: s to initiate the synthesis has to go on a trip, and test with a wind controller, subject to a test for me very soon. In addition there is access to the Waldorf for a small fee. For nine leprix I advise trying to shop and compare with the alesis micron (same price) Mopho Dave Smith Instrument (same price) the korg MicroX (slightly more expensive) and according to your needs make informed question. On occasion a virus or access one of the first rack north could also be an alternative or even a roland jx3p. For my part I will ever have that choice time to tweak, but I do not recommend this purchase Musicians Press. (No more than did the real analog synths) Final Score: 9 for that time (I spend more time on it, jaime more and more I found how to correct small defects which bothered mavaient early) 6 for the Musicians Press.
