Tone Difference Between Atc1 (1st) And Atcx ? Options

[superlead]

hi,

is there a difference between the first ATC1 and the new ATCX studio electronics ?

is one sounding better ?

is it exactly the same components ?

is one more reliable ?

It's not the speed which counts but the slope. Mini were the fastest around till the Technosaurus came in the game, but take a software envelope of the same speed it won't make the thing. Alesis had to correct this in the Andromeda to have some sloppy but much more mooglike attacks.

SE and ATC families are in the heavy weight league, somewhere near the top. I tend to like the ATC better, less imprisoned into bass than SE1.

As far as I know SE is all analogue, but for LFO and Enveloppes it's not that important. the analogue critical parts are oscillators and filters it's 95% of the sound.
