Value For Money : Excellent
Let's be clear, the Monotron Instead the look and feel of a toy. An input, a stereo minijack output, feeding solely on batteries, potentiometers and a tiny keyboard for children in a plastic case.
But in this little box hides a monophonic analog synth with a sound very fat and dirty, a pretty good filter and a powerful LFO that will control choices in the cutoff or pitch.

UTILIZATION

The use could not be simpler, no preset program everything by hand like in the good old days, they said 100% analog!
Difficult to make a good melody, hard to use but really fun!

SOUNDS

The little beast really sounds for all lovers of good analog sound dirty. The output minijack removes some fishing in the bass, but it really takes pleasure in producing sounds with this toy!

OVERALL OPINION

I bought it at its release and I'm really having fun with it. Obviously, he has a place somewhat apart in the studio, I do not use it in spite of its filter input. Obviously, we dream of a MIDI sound as the beast, but a little Arduino and you can get by. I unhesitatingly repeat this synth for a low price because it gives me opportunities play live very pleasant.
