UTILIZATION

The configuration is very simple.
Without menus and sub menu, it is plug and play.
The manual is extra and written in clear French.
Found his own sound with this thing fast analog synth. (It takes a few days, however, stored functions and be completely comfortable.

SOUNDS

Sounds they agree your style of music?
: Yes! I am yet musically eclectic: daft punk, kraftwerk, jimi hendrix, dre, chopin, gainsbourg, marley etc etc ....
It suits me because it is good in the bass, treble, crystalline sounds, sounds slimy grimey bass loaded.


The expression is good? (Response to velocity, aftertouch to)?

No speed, only noon.
The aftertouch suits me perfectly.

Are they realistic?
Yes if you want sound Minibrute!
I insist on the fact that his own character.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had it a week, and it's been a year since I started to invest in a project electric music.
I turned for one year with logic pro: + mass Sylenth1, etc. etc. looking for that sound (a mixture of a bit daft / justice / oizo, I finally found it!

I was looking for a not too mastoc analog, ideal for mobile use with a powerful sound.
IF arturia had to release a version without a keyboard, I'm interested.
