Been getting into this little beast for two days. Sounds very, very promising. Amazingly light, some esoteric presets and a whiff of Mutable Instruments' magic. Plus a brillant sequencer! I think, it will be a very busy synth in my setup! Cudos for MUSIC STORE for fast and flawless delivery to Russia!
Okay, let's start with good sides:
- Something new in music gear field. Put some Clouds engine in synth that width as 13' inch macbook and than make it power from regular phone powerbank? I didnt see something as awesome in other gear for at least 10 years or so.
- Keys that don't broke on travel.
- Matrix func and Utility make that synth so powerfull, push it to the limits, you are only need some fx and recorder after that, because that synth pretty standalone unit.
- Price. For that money? Awesome synth.
- 2 Midi-to-3.5 pin converters in box.
Something about cons and in between:
- Keys. Not standart, okay?
- Made of plastic. Good one, but still need to be not to hard with, while travel I guess.
- Monophonic. Yeah, have cool Paraphonic mode (really cool), but without fx you can hear drop in overall sound quality.
This cons no too much of a headache, but I need to write some to be more objective!
Overall, I can recommend this synth to anyone, exept for one who want to learn proper keys playing - get a midi or piano instead.
Great device. I just started to deal with him and have already received a lot of pleasure. An interesting combination of powerful digital oscillators and analog filters.
Don't let this synth's small size fool you - this is a beast. If you want to create some out-there atmospheres and gorgeous ambient pads - this one would be perfect.
