17 November 2016 analog drum synth Arturia DrumBrute becomes available! We’ve been waiting for it and finally can get another Arturia’s synthesizer which already seems as cute as a commercially successful MiniBrute – who knows, maybe it’s going to be one of the market leaders among mid-range drum machines. 17 available instruments, sequencer, multifilter, various patterns and a recording mode as well as the wide range of connectivity possibilities will give a beginner and a professional the chance to improve themselves revealing their potential – and the good part is that you won’t have to save up for it.

The fact that Roland, Kurzweil, Yamaha and Kawai can’t afford ignoring the mid-range segment (they smart enough to know that it would be foolish of them) and even more – they treat it with care and attention – is proven by the attractive quality of their stage pianos: RD-800, Artis, CP4 and probably the most stunning among them MP7 tempting with its impressive functionality. A professional pianist would agree to perform having any of them (at least once, but would anyway). These compact digital instruments include a big choice of key sounds and can be easily taken in tour. Here we’ll review a few most catching models and the full list is always ready at hand – just click our catalogue.

Not so long ago the Swedish synthesizer company Elektron announced Analog Heat – powerful and compact analog stereo processor with vast range of connectivity and control possibilities. Shape the sound with 8 analog stereo distortion circuits, analog multimode stereo filter and analog stereo equalizer.

When companies equip their cult instruments with a professional keyboard and at least the basic controller set featuring their brand parameters they can easily entice any modular system die-hard fan as well as any touring musician. They don’t aim at the target audience they literally shoot each and every one who’s ever been into professional music. We’ll review the coolest stage synthesizers which used to shake the market and keep on doing it right now - Roland Jupiter-80, Radikal Technologies Accelerator, Access Virus Total Integration 2, Clavia Nord Stage 2EX, Kurzweil PC3A and even that marvelous beast John Bowen Synth Design Solaris!

As professionals move up to the top the instruments surpass each other in quality and money – that’s what Tyros5 did to PSR-S970, and that’s what Korg does to us when we get to the new level and become happy to face Pa4X. Anyway the models which happened to land on the middle of prestige are not so easy – they’re priced at about $2000, read and learn how you can get what you need for the money you agree to pay for an arranger. Roland offers its BK-9 model as a backing keyboard since there are no top arrangers by Roland available on the market. Ketron, a famous Italian company, has nothing to do with this Japanese quality/quantity racing leaving them busy with each other – the Italian engineers are absolutely into their own point of view: they offer a different kind of arranger featuring their own multimedia specs.
