Sound creating machine

I have this synthesizer for some time now. I use it to create new sounds for studio records. Also for soundtracks for movies. You have a lot op presets and a lot of patches to save your creations. De sound lacks some bass. That is a problem with most polyphonic synthesizers. That is why the moog is so popular.

its the dual DCO architechture, DCOs have punch but a pair of them isn't enough for depth due to being phase coherent (plug a mini moog gives you a spare and something like the BS2 has a sub), The mopho and Mopho X4 have dual subs but. The 4 is a scanty 4 voices and similar sounds can be fudged by a rev2 in voice stack with octave and 2 octave down oscillators... The mopho X4 is a great DCO, punchy beast of a mono though I rpefer the BS2 in that pricerange. The X4 is a great addition to a prophet though. love mine and I have an 82 prophet600. FOr bass, stacking the voices and using both subs really ahs asome balls and punch for a different sound than a model D for instance.

Why not have both? 🤷🏾‍♂️ That’s what I do. Rev2 and a grandmother(soon to be a matriarch) are an amazing team

Good crash for a lower price

This crash is relatively higher pitched although it's 18". It responds well. But when you hit your cymbals very hard. This crash will make your ears bleed. They will be in good use when you play a lot with rods or brushes. It has a long sustain.

Good hi-hats for a good price

These hi hats are well fairly priced and they have a higher pitched tone. Their response is very good. They will come to good use when you play a lot with rods or brushes. They won't fit for more heavy music styles, because they will make your ears bleed.

Kick-ass sounding drumkit

I have this kit for two years. And it still shines on stage. The tones you'll create with this kit are majestic. When you buy the full kit you'll get two simple dampening pads in de bassdrum. They are not so good, I've bought the Evans EMAD to make the bassdrum more punchy. All the toms are easy to pitch. The snare you get with this kit is good enough. The sound it creates is very good when you use a single ply drumhead.

Beautiful warm tone

This cymbal can be used without drumsticks. This cymbal can be used for almost every musical style. It has a very warm tone that will blend easily with your other cymbals.
