De response is helaas verre van vlak qua frequentiespectrum. Wij zouden met deze koptelefoon geen gehele productie durven mixen. Dan eindig je waarschijnlijk met een heel iel en dun mixje. Dit door het laag en vooral mid-laag wat bij deze koptelefoon ruim aanwezig is. Dan kan men voor een 'eerlijke' weergave beter kiezen voor een Beyerdynamic 990 bijvoorbeeld. Werkt men echter met reeds bestaande muziek ( DJ's ) dan is deze koptelefoon een uitstekende en behoorlijk goed klinkende oplossing voor een mild prijsje.
Ook als tracking koptelefoon bijv. bij het inzingen is deze koptelefoon uitstekend omdat hij geluid zowel van binnenuit als vanbuiten erg goed isoleert. Een klein nadeeltje is dat deze koptelefoon door gebruik van plastic pads vrij snel zweterig wordt. Conclusie: Voor de prijs absoluut een prima koptelefoon.

Thursday 1 October 2015From a rumour to a leak, and from a leak to a formal announcement: Roland finally presents the Boutique Series!

Thursday 1 October 2015Is it a controller? Is it a synthesizer? Is it a drum machine? No, it's the Novation Circuit! This new groovebox looks a lot like Novation's studio controllers, such as the Launchpad, but it's much more than that...

Monday 11 January 2016Another rumour is rapidly spreading throughout the synthesizer community!

Read more…NAMM 2016: Casio MZ-X: A New MZ-2000?
Monday 11 January 2016The image below recently turned up on the internet. Based on the text and the accompanying specifications, we assume that Casio is trying to lure us to their NAMM booth so they can present their latest keyboard/synthesizer: the MZ-X. This will likely remind keyboard enthusiasts of the MZ-2000, an old Casio model that, considering the words 'Reinvented, Reimagined, Reborn' is apparently about to be brought back to life. Rumour has it that two models will be released, the MZ-500 and the MZ-1000, but take that with a grain of salt; it's very possible that MZ-X is indeed the final name for this workstation.

Tuesday 12 January 2016Late last year, Electro Harmonix introduced the Crash Pad Analog Drum Synth, and at NAMM 2016 they'll be unleashing the Super Space Drum. Where the Crash Pad creates electronic cymbal sounds, the Space Drum generates a typically '80s drum sound - electronic yet warm and full of character. It can be used as either a standalone unit, or in combination with a looper or clock generator, for instance.
