Alesis Andromeda A6

Heyho group,

i was today testdriving the Ion in comparison also a NordLead 2x.

I thought after playing the Ion, that the NL2x sounds warmer, 
fatter, more analog...or was my ears playing me a trick? Or is it 
just that the Ion presets simply sucks? (yes of course i tweaked 
them also...still the NL2x sounded better to me).
