Very flexible. It can do Smiths type of tremolo and also more vintage ones

Nice analogue drum machine. For starters into this world

Love and hate as with other Volca gear. Snare is pretty bad, sounds like pure noise. Kick seems to be too low and no cutting through the mix really well. Has to me tamed and EQed a lot to get something decent.

MS20 circuit focused on kick and bass sounds

Love and hate. I wanted to make punchy kick sound ala Arp 2600 but I never seem to get any closer. Effective, sometimes very 909ish.

the best I've ever done at making a Depeche Mode arp 2600 kick was with the novation peak playing in mono. Hard to believe but it instantly got in the right ballpark the first day I was playing around with it to make some drum sounds.

Default Midi to CV converter.

Super stable, works with CV/Gate and Hz/V/Trigger. It also has S-Trigger option. Can send clock time and it has a clock divider which very handy to interface with obscure gadgets.

Cheaper option to the expensive CE-2

I like the sound it adds to my moog prodigy. Subtle chorus which is really welcomed for bass sounds.

Nice rack mixer. 8 stereo channels into this small package.

Round sound, super easy to use. Only occupies a simple rack space. Very useful

Very nice and round sounding.

Starting to dig deeply into this machine. I love the simplicity of only having 4 real tracks to record. Even that you can play with the tracking and get simultaneous instruments into one single tracks. So theoretically you can record multiple instruments using several record passes. Only 4 at the same time. It includes channels 5 and 6 and 7/8 which are useful to record extra instruments and/or use them as return buses.

Amazing basses and synced sounds.

Love the sound of it. In the bass department is a monster. Also nice leads and synced sounds

Love this little synth from Yamaha

Wonderful PWM, filter is kind of week but sits very nice into the mix unlike other synths which need EQ treatment to reduce frequencies.

Amazing retro beat machine. Punchy snare drums.

I use this machine for early synth pop recreation. A la Speak & Speel
