DeepMind 12 : From small and cheap, to a giant and powerful!

This synth has been on my radar for a long time. The "simple" aspect and the price far below others of renown, of long and respected history, supposed me something below my expectations, but...

...on the other hand, the sounds I heard from him in reviews on the internet, samples of sounds, etc, would turn my head and whet my curiosity. Because what I heard, was the way I was looking for, to contrast with other synthesizers that I have. And there was light!

It's because? Because it was enough to look at your name (DeepMind), and see what really made sense, the interaction of the name with the content.

And as a matter of fact, when I started to play on it, and just the sounds of the factory, I quickly felt a huge suprise of Wow!

Sounds deep, rich, full of senses. With all the controls needed by hand, to play without exploring other settings within the menu.

It is to close the eyes, and to travel. I thought, here is a beautiful medicine for the mind.

Pros: - price

          - sound quality

          - amount of factory sounds available

          - visual

          - main changes of sound at sight

          - feeling of futuristic nostalgia

Cons: - as I had read somewhere, I could refer to the sound of the

             cooling fan on the rear panel as a problem, but in reality, I

thought they were more audible. But as I like to "feel" the

sounds, I usually use a headphone. What still further

attenuates the alleged inconvenience. Not a problem for me

at all!

Conclusion: Wow! A little friend with a big heart, that rejoices the

mind. Supress and total satisfaction.
