Sonicware Lofi-12 XT

the xt is an amazing piece of kit for the money. it has a surprising amount of features, very similar to digitakt in many ways - parameter locks, sample locks, 2 lfo's per track, multimode filter, envelope filter etc etc. but it can be battery powered too which is epic.
ui is very intuitive just like the Digi.
the little speaker is terrible but it's handy to have.
the fx aren't great quality but they're usable. I'd love em to update with some higher quality fx.

sound quality is ok

the mixtape function is genius. everything should have this.

doesn't have a performance mode but could really do with one.

build quality is solid. buttons are a bit mushy, but still built well.

it's a bit heavy with batteries in but still usable handheld lieka and gameboy. I tend to rest it on my knees when holding it handheld.

all in all it's an amazing little machine for the price.
