Paul a professional user from USA writes:
Beautiful high strings. Low strings are rather synthetic. You've got to be creative to make the Brass usable... but don't really expect something realistic... keep it synthy, and it's alright.

I had this instrument years back. I never used a volume pedal for the strings, but I wish I had. Instead I manually adjusted them, sometimes using a long attack for effect. The volume pedal would have been so much easier.

I loved the EQ on the string section. It definately helped make the low end sound warm and full.

I replaced it years later with a Roland Juno 1. Most every keyboard has strings equivalent to this now, although the high end of the Crumar was awfully sweet.

BOUGHT FOR ABOUT 25 POUNDS

SOME SAYS THAT THE BRASS DOESN'T SOUND LIKE BRASS I DISAGREE

WHEN I RECORDED AND VARI SPEEDED (SLOWED IT DOWN THE TAPE TO GET LOWER SOUND IT SOUND MORE BRASSES)

TRY LOWERING THE PITCH AN OCTIVE WITH FX DIGITECH WHAMMY OR OCTAV

THIS IS A FUN SYNTH BUY IF IF YOU CAN GET IT CHEAP

THE STRING SOUNDS ALONG ARE WORTH IT
