Deff 12" Egypt. Mother of Pearl Simulate Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Don't buy this if you're looking for a real instrument. The quality is too low.
Also be aware that the picture showing the nice faux MOP inlay is not really representative of what you will receive. The product is placed into a nylon carrying case, for some strange reason, that is made with dies that rub off onto the instrument. Obviously the one I received had been moist or in a very humid environment at some point and the material die left the MOP looking very bad...
For the price and hassle required to return and get a better one, yeah right...probably one just like it, it isn't worth even trying to return.
Will not buy from this supplier or distributor again! Quality control is everything, guys, and since you obviously have none and don't care about inconveniencing your customers who have to return poor quality items to you, you aren't worth my continued business.

Tubes can really warm up a signal fast, giving it depth and character. Thanks to digital VTC technology, the MIC800 emulates the tube warmth of a variety of tube mic preamps, all in one feather-light package.

Put Virtual Tube In Your Tone This ultra-compact 9.5-inch microphone modeling preamp gives your vocals, guitars, bass or keys low-noise tube-like warmth both in the studio and on stage. It perfectly complements studio-grade condenser mics, and its ultra-flexible Preamp Modeling allows you to quickly optimize your recordings. You can choose between 16 preamp voicings designed for electric and acoustic guitars, keyboards, bass guitars, drums, vocals, etc.:

NEUTRAL:Pure, natural sound
VOCAL:Natural but crisp sound, which is ideal for vocals
GUITAR:Natural but bright sound, which is ideal for guitars
BASS:Natural but full sound, which is ideal for bass guitars
KEYBOARD:Warm, round sound, which is ideal for keyboards
E-GUITAR:Warm, acoustic sound, which is ideal for electric guitars
VOCAL:Warm, consistent sound that has presence and is ideal for vocals
VALVE:Warm, vacuum tube sound for any kind of signal
MULTI:Warm analog sound for any kind of signal
VOCAL:Warm, full sound that is consistent and ideal for vocals
A-GUITAR:Warm, soft sound that is lively and ideal for acoustic guitars
PIANO:Warm, soft sound that sparkles and is ideal for pianos
BASS:Round, rich bass sound, which is ideal for bass guitars
A-GUITAR:Full, soft sound, which is ideal for acoustic guitars
PERCUSSION:Precise, punchy sound, which is ideal for percussion instruments
LIMITER:Compact sound for vocals and all other types of signals

The MIC800 is equipped with Behringer's sophisticated output limiter, which prevents the output signal from being distorted. A dedicated Low Cut filter eliminates unwanted noise such as floor rumble. Onboard +48 V phantom power and 20 dB Pad are provided for utmost flexibility, plus a vintage-style VU meter enables precise level indication. Behringer's renowned ultra low-noise audio operational amplifiers provide outstanding sound performance. In addition, all Mini Series models can be stacked to create an ultra-compact signal processing solution.
Vintage Sound, Modern Value The MIC800 delivers the sound quality of a vintage tube preamp at a mere fraction of what a true relic of the 1960s would cost.

eMedia Essential Keyboard Pack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The keyboard shown here looks exactly like the one I purchased from Amazon in June 2008 to get back to keyboard studies after a long downtime period. I still have that keyboard, it has had no problems whatsoever, after all the practice I put into it, it still works fine.
The current version of this keyboard now has some features which were not in the original one, software, etc., so I cannot comment on that, however, from the what the other reviewer said here, the teaching devices are probably just fine. This is the review I wrote in 06.08 about the original keyboard. My knowledge of the keyboard market is now extensive; this review still stands:
"This is an excellent buy and a great keyboard for beginners of all ages or even more advanced players who want an exercise keyboard or one to take with on trips. It's very well built, solid, with full size keys, is very light weight and small enough to store away easily. Has a volume control, sustain button, metromone, and some learning devices. Easy to use, just plug in and play. Comes with a music rack, adapter, and manual. The keys are easy to press, yet the action and feel of the keys is very good and similar to pro level keyboards, so you can play with proper technique on this. The grand piano voice is good and realistic enough for practice, the other voices could be better, but with the piano voice coming in OK, the keyboard is certainly worth the money. I have not used the learning devices, so I can't comment on them, but everything else about this keyboard is very good. I am an advanced guitarist and intermediate keyboardist, I am totally satisfied with this keyboard, you will be too!"
