it’s decent synth for few hours of fun

Ren T 01.10.2020

build quality is very good, the design is perfect for kids and it will be great fun for few hours with your kid. But even my little one got bored of it rather quickly as there are not many possibilities. Yes you can play around with a sequencer and there are thousands of different notes and patterns you can make, but by the time you did a hundred of them, you will get sick of the same boring presset. My recommendation for producers of this box is to upgrade it with a choice of sounds too.

Great but fragile

Ludovic T 16.04.2021

I purchased the Dato Duo with the intention of letting my 2-year old discover the world of music with the advantage of a "no awful noise" approach since this has a sequencer which allows to stay in tempo and use only "tuned" notes.

The overall experience is great but as always, kids will try and grab the synth, move it around and so the power plug is now super sketchy and I'll probably have to open up the synth and re-solder the port in place as it currently shuts down and reboots as soon as the cable moves ever so slightly which has relegated this to staying on a shelf for months...

Teures Spielzeug

Hans Peter Dietrich 28.10.2019

Im Grunde erfüllt der Synth schon die Erwartungen, die man haben kann - also für Spaß von Klein und Groß.

Der Sound ist etwas blechern, aber bei Anschluss an einen Aktivlautsprecher ganz ok - Das ist den Kindern ziemlich egal - aber unsereins ist da schon etwas empfindlicher. Die synth engines sind auch ganz brauchbar und geben auch einiges her - von fett bis fein. Was mich ab und zu genervt hat, dass meine Kiddies quasi ununterbrochen auf den Start-Stopp-Knopf drückten, wenn gerade ein Netter groove läuft. Sicherlich kein Designfehler...sondern klarer Bedienfehler ;D

Anschluss an z.B. Pocket Operator läuft problemlos...synchronisiert ohne Probleme. Was ich etwas Schade finde ist, dass es kein Line-in gibt, um eventuell ein zweites Gerät einzuspeisen, d.h. man braucht dann doch noch einen Mixer...

Man sich natürlich fragen warum ein zweites Gerät gebraucht wird...hat ja synth und drums. Leider ist letzteres nicht sequenzierbar und nur auf spontane Finger-drum-trigger angewiesen. Schade, ein paar selektierbare Drumsequenzen hätten es vielleicht auch getan.

Im Großen und Ganzen trotzdem ein empfehlenswertes Spielzeug...eventuell etwas überteuert, aber bei Kindern und bei sich selbst macht man ja gerne ausnahmen ;)

No solo para niños

PeterPe 16.06.2022

He comprado este sintetizador para trabajar la síntesis de audio con chavales de entre 8 y 12 años. Había escuchado muy buenas opiniones de este producto y, aunque pensaba que igual sería un poco sencillo para esas edades, me decanté por él.

La primera impresión del DUO es que se ve bastante robusto, literalmente a prueba de niños: incluso los faders de control del sintetizador, que a simple vista parecen muy enclenques, tienen buena solidez y manejo. El producto puede ser manejado a la vez por dos personas enfrentadas, lo que abre bastantes posibilidades a la experimentación. Además tiene conectividad MIDI, lo cual hace que se pueda secuenciar.

Por el precio, no es un sintetizador que dé muchas opciones para modificar el sonido (más bien todo lo contrario), pero sí que es excepcional para lo que ha sido diseñado: es muy intuitivo y, sobre todo, divertido. Yo mismo he estado improvisando con el durante más horas de las que debería... creo que con eso digo todo.
