hey folks just ordered a korg x911 as i am primarily a guitarist and always wanted one!
will let you know what i think
the veritable alex ball pooh poohed the x911 a few years ago but its all down to personal taste even tho he is clearly very talented and knowledgeable
i tired to use it with a cirklon and gave up, mine was probably broken
guess it would work better as it was supposed to be used, with a guitar
ok thanks for this, i intend to use with guitar
I bought one a decade ago but it was broken: it woudn’t track the input pitch at all. I’ve kept it in order to fix it some day and use it as an expander, through CV input. I haven’t done so much because of the Hz/V standard… still watching the replacement chip though.
Meanwhile, I bought a SonicSmith Convertor+. It’s not the same animal: I planned to use the X911 as a way to achieve the Korg sound playing my beloved Moog Little Phatty. The Convertor synth sound is not exciting but the device will convert the input pitch into 1V/Oct CV signal…
I haven’t been using this one much more, but the last time I recorded a demo for a buyer, I thought that I might keep it and guess what: the guy did not call back
Anyway, please keep us informed of your endeavours!
will do dude - i will post some stuff assuming it all works fine, as that was how it was described by
the seller…
bit of korg jamming
so it arrived and works pretty well, deffo needs a service, but i am digging it
Nice! It seems to track well, doesn’t it?
yeah with a hum bucker its peachy!
