Bonjour ami francophone qui ne comprend pas grand chose � l'Anglais... Je suis �tudiant et donc pas vraiment musicien pro. J'ai achet� le XP10 � sa sortie. J'ai �t� convaincu par les sons de piano acoustiques et �lectriques. Il sont tr�s corrects pour le prix. Cependant avec le temps, on s'en lasse vite du son de piano acoustique... surtout quand on joue sur un Pleyel ou un Yamaha � queue.C'est un son agr�able dans les graves mais pas tr�s profond. A part �a il est vrai que les sons de TB303 sont assez d�gueulasses, que les kits de batterie sont excellents et que les guitares acoustiques, violons, trompettes -etc.- rel�vent du pitoyable. Ceci dit certains sons comme les Strings Oberheim ou Synthbass101 sont vraiment sympathiques.
En outre le Xp10 poss�de un arp�giateur agr�able mais qui n'est pas transmis via midi. A part �a je dirais que le XP10 est un synth� sympa pour d�butant d'autant plus que son prix est attrayant d'occasion... Amoureux des instruments acoustiques, s'abstenir... Pour ma part je vais certainement m'acheter le XP30 qui � l'air un peu plus polyvalent. Pour plus de renseignements n'hesitez pas � me conacter.Surtout si vous voulez me le racheter..

+ HiQuality sounds + Good acoustic drums, guitars + Good GM -soundsource + Price - Keyboard - LCD - Variety of sounds - MIDI (bugs, slow) - Expandability
Real competitor is Yamaha CS1x for the price. XP-10 has clearly better quality of sounds. Same sounding filters. Same expandability. CS1x has more sounds, better keyboard, better MIDI, more knobs, better for electronic music etc, and better electronic -drumssounds.
Ask me from those two machines if ya want. Just mail.

Hmm..This synth never impressed me much. Its "analogue" sounds made me laugh so hard. The pair of Tb-303 sounds are Incredulously horrible. NOTHING like the real thing. OB brass (oberheim) sounded like a one lunged person trying to play a trumpet. I also recall this synth having Drum kits on it? i rememember somethin that tried to be a 909 kit, the kick was like a dying dog groaning, and the snare was like radio fuzz. Our School's Midi lab has these in there. THIS is where i praise it. Ranks up there among the midi controller /midi board category. Our local music store is trying to rid of em soo bad that they made a deal..for $400 you can buy the board Roland Speakers, Sequncer software and a stand. Im sad to say that they havent sold one off yet. Bottom line...Analogue is Analogue...digital is digital...oh "p.s." this board is awesome at Acoustic type instruments..but i dont use those so...i'll stick to my higher end Roland stuff (dr-660, Jp-8000)

My friend got one, so I messed around on it for a while. It kicked a lot more ass that I thought that it would. I ran it through a Digitech foor multi-effects guitar thing... and it became perfect industrial percussion. The Arp is good too... I played with the "walking bass line" one for a while, while I was playing lead with my right hand. It's a nice beginner's box. Personally, if you have the extra $200, I'd go with the XP-30 for sure. It has 64 MB of samples, two expansion slots, and the same synth archetecture as the JV-1080/XP-50 (and all of the above synths [JV-2080, XP-60, XP-80.]) A nice little box none the less.

The XP-10 is a great entry level synthesiser.....some of the sounds are great, and the dual function is particularly useful....i found by hooking up a mixer to mine, i was able to tweak it a little, and get it to sound even better....if you're looking for a nice starter synth, this is it....nothing out there comes even close to the value you get for the price....i'm happy with mine....
