I got my snow (+comments)

[NoLie6]

Hello altogether,

two days ago I got my virus snow. I just loved it from the first second

Here some comments:

1) Before I bought the snow I downloaded the Quickstart Manual (pdf) from the access page. I have read it, and because it was very short I am expected a big manual when buying a real snow.
But, exactly the same manual is delivered with the snow, not more!
I think that is much less.

2) At some presets (e.g. 1-4-4 ElectroAV) I noticed that notes will not get played (via MIDI keyboard) when get played fast. I analyzed that and found out that whenever a tone is kept pressed on keyboard and a next tone is pressed than this tone is not played. So the melody must be played 'staccato' in order to work.

3) I found out that the knobs position is not really exact. I expected if I change the position of the 3 knobs from Zero to anywhere and back, I will have the original sound. But that is not the case. I need to select another preset and return back to have this.
Maybe I am wrong, and the Zero-Position of the knobs is not the 'Unedited'-Setting?

But anyway I am impressed by that litte box. I will need a big amount of time to get all things known that are possible with it.

In the next time I do not plan to install/test new OS version etc. I believe 2.7.5 is very stable and that is what I need at the beginning. I never install the newest software/patches neither at windows or any other programs.

I will also not immediately use the snow via VC at my pc. Don't know if it would work on vista anyway.

At the moment I am not sure what's about the Multi-Mode. I played some of that view preset. But for me that too much at the same time. Before I had the snow I thought that must be the best sounds ever, but I am disappointed a little. Some very simple sounds (one or two complexity bars) sound sometimes better than high complex ones. But I think that's IMO.

(Great that my 19 years old casio keyboard works without problems with the snow. I had no hanging note etc.)
