QS8
64 Voice Master Controller/Synthesizer

The QS8 was the top of the line Alesis synthesizer in 1996/1997. There were also the smaller QS6 which came first and featured a smaller ROM, and the QS7, which had the same ROM of the QS8.

This keyboard is a great master controller - as well as a capable synth - in virtue of its expressive weighted-hammer action. It is also of very compact size for a full 88-keys. The pitch and modulation wheels sit at the top left of the main panel to save space.

There are four controllers in the form of sliders: these are freely assignable and depending on the patch, they control various parameters such as filter cutoff, amount of FX, LFOs, envelopes and so forth.

The QS-series doesn't have a resonant filter, but does have many 'resonant filter' samples in memory. Besides, there is a large series of expansion cards (the so-called 'Q Cards'), that contain more. The Vintage Synth card in particular is full of resonant, filter-swept patches.

The display is small but serves its purpose. It's a bit slow to program only using the display, but the QS-series came with an excellent computer editor that consents to tweak every parameter from a large computer screen to your heart's content.

The familiar 'Program' and 'Mix' buttons are the usual 'Patch' and 'Combination' of other synths. A huge strip of buttons that goes from 00 to 127 end the front panel. These are very, very useful, to recall quickly and easily the factory patches (every button groups a family of sounds together), and to program the synth itself (all parameters are silk-screened under each button).

The sounds of the QS8 are clean, precise, digital, powerful, beautiful and sparkling. I remember from the magazine articles of the time that Keith Emerson's personal instruments had been extensively sampled to build the ROM of the QS synths, and this shows in many factory patches. Many modular Moog sounds, several organs, and even the fabled, mythical Yamaha GX-1 is featured in the sound ROM! But it's the PAD sounds that I tend to like a lot on this synth: they are huge, clean, mysterious, lovely, and straight away beautiful. Check out the sound examples below.

The sound engine is also greatly helped by the presence on-board of nothing less than the equivalent of Alesis' own multi-effect Quadraverb 2. The reverbs, delays and 'Lezlie' in particular are of exceptional quality.
