Open Labs – MiKo Timbaland Special Edition

ATTENZIONE, QUESTO BLOG SI E’ TRASFERITO ALL’INDIRIZZO http://www.nonsolomusicablog.it
Il 13 agosto, ho dedicato un post che è passato quasi inosservato (forse per la tenera età del blog) ad un prodotto che secondo me ha aperto la strada verso il futuro delle keyboard workstation; il NeKo Lx.

Questa volta è il turno di un altro modello, nello specifico il MiKo Timbaland Special Editon.

Il MiKo è un modello più piccoletto rispetto al NeKo Lx ma offre di sicuro altrettante funzionalità.

Per capire come sono composte le workstation prodotte da Open Labs, vi consiglio di dare una lettura veloce al post indicato nell’apertura del post.

La dotazione è di prim’ordine, pensate che è dotato di ben 25027 presets che si distinguono in 24Gb di suoni e oltre 60 virtual instruments. Solo questo arsenale sonoro, raggiunge la cifra di 2967 $.
