Features, we not stop to read them so the wait is long, do not bother to repeat again ...
I just wish the abscence of midi out.
And I do not know how I'll sync with my electribe but I did not really thought

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is it simple?
So there for once, this is simple.Histoire that one is on the same vein, I'm the kind of guy who needed a year before his master ESX-1 yet known intuitive and easy to acces ... Well then I got my toy this morning, and I already mastered most of the functions if it is not all and this without reading the manual (flew out of curiosity to see if it was in jap or well ...)
So for the grip is VERY intuitive and quickly rewarding.

Editing sounds and effects is it easy?
An instrument that is not, it's a button. -Much less hassle than the electribe in this regard. more limited as-
Selected on the instrument and the following effects will apply.

Then the black dot jumps out at me is when even the knobs like "clamp tweezers has required" (I thought it seriously). Not because I'm the "finger piano" very kind and purpose to be honest I find it hard to turn the knobs in the middle, which makes me think that, at the very least 50% of the people there will experience severe difficulties.

So for GETTING STARTED, figuratively it's 9/10, and literally it's 4/10

Edit: and great for batteries and portability.
batteries really allow proper autonomy (6h that it will run and still no empty stack) and a weight less surreal story not to be confused with his pack of cigarettes.

SOUNDS

Okay so the sound is very hiphop I think, at least for the beat.
For realism is repasera (oupas)
Personally I quite like these sounds pretty dry and porous. The effects of the change permetant are also basic than effective

edit: I forgot, the sound of the integrated HP is chi **, but you doubt you.

OVERALL OPINION

Good in synthesis, is the toy that I would have liked at school or high school, a sort of musical tamagochi, which can linker that of friends to have fun at the playground. it fits in the binder with the taste is not too fragile to its low poids.C is especially FUN as object.

This is not a lelectribe still less electron (spelling uncertain, but if the Machinedrum has 1100th what you see) as bass and keys should not be Moogs either.
it is much cheaper and much more fun and affordable.

Maybe TOOL to introduce your children to electro analog.

Yes I would do this choice because I have it in the bag this morning and I broke out with wherever I stop.
Strongly than the other two arrive, it'll groover in the queues at the traffic lights, the safety during meetings ...
