very new to synth

[prophetic]

Hi all!
Im very new to synth and got questions.
Do you guys think it's enough keys to play with Indigo?
and are there any pages about how to play hardware synth for a VERY beginner?

[Tomer=Trance]

playing on a synth is just like playing on a full scale piano just with only 2 and a half octaves (right? 32 keys?)

get you a good piano teaching book.
cant realy recommend anything tho...

Well, it depends. 32 keys are fine when you start but after a while that keyboard is annoyingly small. I'd recommend you to get a five octave Virus (kB or kC) if you're getting yourself a first keyboard. It costs the same and is much better in a terms of master keyboard.

First off, welcome to the forum!

If the I'd recomend getting a bigger keyboard too. Once you get into playing more you'll see the benifit.

Good luck with the choice.

Yeah....32 aint enough. How about a Virus desktop with a MIDI keyboard/controller, with at least 49 keys.....the more the better.

Better to get a keyboard Virus because the keyboard on Viruses is excellent.
