It is a 12-bit reverb without possibility of editing with sixty reverbs shorter (0.2 s) to the longest (20s)
9 gate reverbs and 4 reverse (beautiful)
A midi input to change the reverb midi program change, basic.
A kind of plastic box half rack rack but not with the list of reverbs silkscreened above.
Cheapo light box and soft gums and also cheapo buttons ... nothing exciting at first.
RCA connections.

UTILIZATION

no editing, no need manual to change presets, only the choice of MIDI channel can be selected and a bypass.

SOUND QUALITY

So there it smashes, these reverbs are soft and dull, never flashy.
I am always surprised by the atmosphere created by this small when I put on a track.

Compared to my MPX-1 is ultra less commercial, less clean (I'll) and less versatile.
Compared to my ex MPX-100 is much more credible.
Compared to my SE-50 is more soft and warm (reverbs SE-50 is not so bad when high frequencies are cut)

It is very typical, we go on in this hot and nightlife with, as if we could not do anything but dark music ... it's inexplicable.

The 12-bit conversion must be for many, the high frequencies are naturally cut and the reverberant sound is compact, crushed ... makes it sound a little dark automatically.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought after reading an interview with Jean Michel Jarre who praised (!) And spoke of his warmth he found in no other reverbs (!)
I love the SOUND of Jarre and I told myself that if this "millionaire" music passed some of these tracks in this box, I could take the chance to buy 50 balls and I did well.

Unfortunately, mine oxidized circuits and it has a horrible that I have not managed to calm despite a cleansing breath rule.
I need to buy one!

in reverse on kicks I've ever heard it in no prods Techno.
In short reverb on synth is cozy and we hear a sentence, it just gives the felt to soothe the ears.
As long reverb is a sci-fi wish for artificial music.

Oh, by the way, it is absolutely NOT NATURAL ... it is a reverb for music that does not exist (non-acoustic music or music that does not try to reproduce reality), we agree?
