Excellent!!

I use to have the big brother the Ultranova. It took up to much space so I sold it. Big mistake. I have missed it since I sold it. Finally decided to buy the MiniNova. It has the same synth engine as the Ultranova but the best way to do sound design is to use the software. Sounds great and fun to play.

Good for shredding. Not really very good for acoustic.

Not a bad little practice amp. Needs more bottom end for my applications. But good enough to shred with if that is your thing.

Great little amp!

I love this thing. Great practice amp. I really needed an amp for my acoustic guitars. I have a small Behringer that works great for electric guitar but sucks for acoustic. This amp pulls double duty for me. The acoustics go on channel 2 and the electric on channel one. Saves me a ton of space.

Okay at best.

I am not a big fan of x-stands. They are not very stable. This stand is good but not great. It is more stable than other x-stands but still pretty weak.

Great piece of gear!

I am an old school analog guy. I have just gotten into digital mixers. I had a Presonus 16R that I could not wrap my brain around. I sold it and bought the Beringer X-Air 18. What a world of difference. I plugged it in and it just worked. There were not a bunch of hoops to jump through to get it to work. With the software, X-Air Edit, I learned more about digital mixers in the first 48 hours than I did with the PreSonus which I had owned for several months.

Great sounding synth!

If you want a great bass synth this one is for you. Do you need a good lead synth? Got you covered. Do you want to make some pads or get some really spacey sounds? It works for that too.

Outstanding all around mono synth.

Excellent unit. Very versatile.

This thing is great. I was so impressed I bought two of them. I use one on my Novation Bass Station 2 and the other on my Arturia Skinibrute. Great and very useful delays. The tape delay is outrageous.

Love this thing!

All my guitars up until now have been nylon string guitars. This is my first steel string. Has a brighter sound than a dreadnaught but perfect for what I want. Also, the neck has a comfortable width. I have really big hands and sausage fingers so I like a wider neck.

Great controller!

I primarily use this as a controller for my Circuit. It makes it easier to do tweaking on the fly.

Great synth!

This thing is a little screamer. You can get really good sounds if you run the waveform volumes below 50%. If you run them higher you get nice and dirty sounds. I actually have this as a desktop module.

Great Interface.

I decided because funds were low to go with another Behringer interface. I am stunned! This thing works great. I am not having the problem with distortion an clipping I had on the other Behringer interface.

Not bad.

It gets the job done but I am going to save and get a good Focusrite interface.

Outstanding Chorus!!

Great pedal. However, I think it sounds better on guitar than on a synth.

Outstanding!

Great pedal! Decent reverb and good delay. The delay is a little tricky though. Once you figure out how it works then it is off to the races.

Great!

EQ is always useful. This one is very easy to use.

Great!

Nice smooth chorus. Easy to use. I like using it in mono mode instead of stereo. it just seems to sound better that way but that is my opinion. Really helped tame the Minibrute.

Very useful.

I record most of my music in one shot. Audacity is very easy to use for this. You do not have to wait for plugins and such to load like Logic. Also, you can leave it running in the background without eating up as many resources. That way you can just click record and play when the mood strikes you.

This is a cutdown version the Minibrute.

This is a Minibrute that has had the keyboard removed and then enclosed in a wooden case to make it a desktop synth. It still has all the grit and wildness as well as the warm analogue sounds if you go easy on the waveform volume. Keep it below 50% and get those classic sounds.

3 VCO Analogue Poly Synth!

While a bit limited for the price you can not go wrong. Add a controller keyboard and you have a polysynth or a 3 VCO mono synth with Ring Mod and delay. Plus the sequencer, while limited, still has much potential.
