sounds are just and realistic and powerful as those on many dedicated rhythm machines.
The QR10's outstanding voices and versatile programming features make it an ideal
tool for trying out musical ideas. It's also a great way to present you ideas to others.
Use the QR10 as an adjunct to music recording and production in a MIDI music system.
It can, for example, be MIDI-clock synchronized to other MIDI equipment in order to
add extra tracks to an arrangement.
The QR10's AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) tone generator is in no way a
compromise. You get outstanding AWM sound quality that's on a par with some of the
finest full-size synthesizers. You can play the QR10 remotely from just about any MIDI
keyboard, computer, or other controller.
Use the QR10 as an "ABC expander" for your MIDI keyboard. Auto-accompaniment
can makes playing at home more fun, and it can be a tremendous sound-booster at
1-performer live gigs.
