o ok i see.
and woah nelly, i dont think im going with that roland... $600? :(
the reason the alesis micron appealed to me was mostly because of the sounds it could do, and because it would take me a year to save up for it.

The parameters are vast and not readily accessible. Its not a very hands on synth. I think the small size and price fools people. A good beginners synth is a Roland SH-201. It really depends on how willing you are to learn. If one read the entire user manual they could operate the micron just fine.

is this a good beginner synth?
if not what should i go for?

Nope, this can be done with just the micron.
Took me maybe a couple of hours messin about with it after lookin up FM on wikipedia to make some pretty sweet (and musical) sounds.

The good thing about the Micron: it can be as simple or complex as you want. If you just want to tinker with juicy-sounding presents, great. If you want to dive into designing sounds, it certainly has the muscle for it! It's an ION in a small case, plus more onboard effects. Me likey!

Frequency modulation

for a good tutorial on it look up acepincter & fm/frequency modulation synthesis... i'm still not sure i understand exactly how the hell it works but im learning how to use it and the more i learn it i start liking it more than subtractive synthesis

This is sweet. I hope it doesn't take me a year to figure out. The micron doesn't have to be set up with external programs to do this, does it?

im a bit confused, i own a micron but what exactly is FM? |
