Ease of Use
:
9
very easy to use didn't read the manual and picked it up in a jiff.
although u have not tried using it with a footpedal or by MIDI input..
easy to sample easy to delay..
Sound Quality

Well the unit is mainly a Sampler and delay processor.. But does have some chorus and flange which can be added to a sample and are pretty good. THe sampling isn't of the highest quality 39k but for live/sitting at home doodling this Unit kicks ass..
mind you this was a cheap unit but does alot for the money..
i've found very little noise in this unit.. The delay is very digital sounding but can be pretty unique with it's ability to delay from 1 milisecond to 12 secs changable by a large shuttle ...

this thing is smashing for the price.. I highly recommend it to any beginner or someone who wants to be able to record a loop edit it and play along with the loop.. The loops can be reversed with the push of a button.. Really well planned unit.. The things i wish could be better are simply part of the fact that it is a 220$ new...This is not an AKai nor a layerable Loopstation.. it is a 220$
two seperate 12 secs sampler and or four 6 sec samples.
imagine the 12 second blocks as totally seperate as they are not combinable... but if you go with the 6 seconds samples you can attempt to get two samples looping together but timing would be hard to get straight... Last of all i just can not express how easy this thing is to edit.. push edit scroll forward with an Lcd and hit edit again to cut the front of the sample then roll back to cut the end..
If you cut too much or too little go back and you can change it without having to rerecord it.. This is a brilliant way to introduce yourself to sampling or playing along with loops... don't let you my ten make you think there are no limitations but i'd tempted to buy another.. If only you could save the samples or layer it would be perfect..
