this is half an effects box and half keyboard. It is triggered by and processes external signals. It has cool distortion plus "Synthe Wah" If the TB-303 is "acid" the X-911 is "crack" It has external FM input, VCF freq. mod input, Cv/Hz in's/outs, Trig in/outs. It has Attack Decay Attack(ADA) envelope & for the filter just Attack & Decay. this thing is amazing you flip from a twisted filtered input to the sound triggering a "303-ish" type synth. or for some added "CHEEEZ" switch the balance the "preset" side where you can use or combine bass,tuba(why?) trumpet, dist. guitar,violin, flute(oh boy!) this is a totally isolated synth from the "wave" based side.pulse,square, saw. Well to sum up this this is a very unique piece! Very "dirty" sounding. An LFO would be nice as well as a resonance control (+self oscillating) It looks like half of a TR-808. --phil Comments About the Sounds: very organic and unpredictable. UNIQUE. great for prcesessing drums, guitar and twisted vocals. |
