PROS
- • Exceptional sequencing capabilities for complex rhythmic patterns.
- • Modulation matrix offers deep control over sequence parameters.
- • Intelligent gate modes provide nuanced rhythmic possibilities.
- • Compact form factor maximizes rack space utilization.
CONS
- • Steep learning curve; mastering its full potential takes dedication.
- • Assignable knobs can feel limiting for extensive parameter tweaking.
- • Expandability requires an additional purchase for full gate/trigger output.
