Having owned the Deepmind 6 which I found very good for its value for money second-hand, I sold it to acquire the "new" model, the 6x.
I mainly play Armenian music as a soloist and I thought the new model should at least fix the main flaw of the old model, namely, a pitchbend/modulation wheel without latency. I was wrong!
It seems the only thing that changed is the colors and a pitchbend/modulation in black.
Moreover, the quality of the touch is also worse, the touch feels cheaper, lighter, compared to the old model which I found excellent.
I had already contacted customer support about the pitchbend because I am not the only one experiencing the problem and their response disappointed me a lot. They said it was part of the product specifications and they do not plan firmware updates to fix it.
The worst part is that the pitchbend in midi has no latency, but they didn't want to hear about it.
Anyway, I would advise you to opt for the deepmind 6 second-hand rather than the 6x.
Apart from this bug (very frustrating for my use), the synth is very easy to handle, even for a beginner, I appreciate its small size, and it must be said that it sounds as good in the lows as in the highs (even with 6 voices).
I specify that I have searched all the options and recalibrated the pitch bend many times but nothing works.
I don't know yet if I will keep it or send it back.... (Show more)
