Sonicware LIVEN Lofi-12

This unit has a fantastic character of sound all of it's own. Most functions are straightforward and not too much menu diving. It's a very tactile surface and will be great for on the fly editing during a performance. It's helpful to have real MIDI sockets instead of another USB clogging up the computer and a clean, intuitive surface workflow but it's the sound it can conjure that makes this unit a must. I wholeheartedly recommend the lofi 12, absolutely love it !

First the sound: Lofi oriented but in a very good way.
Possibilities: though it can seems limited it can turn any sound into Instrument, sample loops, or turn a loop into a programmable drum.
The sequencer is super fun, though it require a little learning curve, but four tracks and parameter lock let you create in a quick way.
Some live application are like filter sweep, stutter, pattern change, mute make it a jam oriented machine

I bought it more to test it and send it back. But I'm keeping it. The sound is awesome!
