The Napoleon Of Modeling Synths.

At first glance the Alesis Micron looks like little more than a toy. It's innovative size and simple design can be misleading however, because the Alesis Micron packs more features than some of todays leading modeling synths. The formula for this instrument? Alesis basically took their Ion modeling synth, simplified the design, and downsized it in everything but features. They left the keys full size which is a much desired feauture. They also give you octave up and octave down buttons, so you never have to worry about size limiting you from playing high of low. The pitch bend wheel is one of the best I have played yet, and unlike some, does not slip out of my fingers while I'm playing. The preloaded sounds have alot to say for themselves and require very little tweaking, however, those struck by creativity will have no problem completely altering them. All I can say about the Micron is go try it yourself, you'll be surprised, and whether its lying in bed with the Micron expierimenting with new sounds, or playing onstage, you will not be disapointed.

Simply amazing

I bought this synth yesterday and I was so amazed by it I didn't stop playing it all night. This thing has so many effects. Im in love. All in all 1000000 times better than the mini korg (which I also have)

Why buy big?

This synth has everything you need. Fat bass, soothing pads and the ability to be edited to your needs at the touch of a button. If you want a great unit for a great price, this is your best bet. The synth sounds on this thing are straight out of analogue. One listen to the organ patches alone will have you purchasing this great set of keys in no time. I've done plenty of recording with this thing and I can't get over the lush sounds that come out of it. Amazing.

Modern Synthesis at its Best!

As a Radiohead junkie, I naturally picked up tools to work on synthesis, and I am in love with the complexities of this amazing syth. Its features are like that of any technical or analog synth I have played on, but I love how any sound, any program, and any system is easy to access. I have followed Thom Yorke, Postal Service, and Radiohead for years, and this synth gives me almost any sound to model the features of a full-range synth of Thom, Johnny, or Ben's caliber. The only downside to the Micron is the time signatures in terms of setups, in that all measures are based upon 2's and 4's, making it difficult to build time signatures based on 7/8's or 5/4's. Other than that, I use this synth in almost all my music and it provides sounds and programs valuable to any synth-based musician.

Excellent Virtual Analog Synth

Wow! This synth is great! I own a microkorg synth and one day hope to get a minimoog, but because the classic analog synths are so expensive, I got this. The microkorg is good, but this does a lot more for its price. Plus this thing does just as much as its sister synth the Alesis Ion but costs less. The sounds are amazing. Most sounds are very close to a true analog and even sound like an old atari game. They can get classic sounds that true analogs have for less price. You can make and save up to 500 of your own user tones, patterns, arpeggios. That's a lot for such a small thing. Plus this small thing has full sized keys. very portable indeed.......
