Das Ding klingt absolut langweilig. Wenn "ANALOG" vor >30 Jahren so daher gekommen wäre, hätte man die Hersteller ausgelacht. Klasse Beispiel für "kaufe keine Etiketten, kaufe Qualität", in dem Fall natürlich als WARNUNG gedacht
the sound of this synth for bass is huge, sharp and killing.
i have the envelopes modded with other resistors (i think 11k)
still i don't really like the envelopes, there are better ones, sometimes they are kinda coughy. i also have a waldorf pulse, i like those envelopes better.
@devmiles Don't you think the pulse is better for bass or what is your opinion? I actually had a pulse and sold I so regret it, but I wonder if I should get another or aim for something else? I was thinking of the DSI Tetra 4 which also seem nice for bass, but I haven't heard so many bass demos, and if people demo it they always make that shitty squeeky moogbass, I want to hear if it can do deephouse bass and also banging technobass not that shitty 80's bass. What do you think?
@M3sslah Hi, The pulse is very great value for money. You can get one for 250$ and you'd have a real analog killer bass synth that blows every softsynthie away. Pulse is great for techno and rough sounding too, deep impact. I edit by ear but you can get an editor too. DSI is ok and versatile too but i'd aim for something older. An Oberheim Matrix 1000 is also fantastic (only editable by software or additional controller) What is your budget?
@devmiles I don't know exactly, tired of softsynths for bass in particular, and also leads, there is something missing if you ask me, the attack and the whole timbre feels stiff and digital. But I also wanted to get a xoxbox into the budget and a pair of KRK RP8, maybe 500 euros on the synth. I was thinking of the Slim phatty, around 750 euros, would that do the trick for heavy, punchy bass, I dislike most demos but that is not the synths fault, it's all people stuck in the 80's sound.
@M3sslah i don't think the 80's sound is where people got stuck in, it's the complete opposite. Most new music is very copycat and little character because of software. I've always worked with hardware and my whole studio is hardware based. As for house and techno we've had the minimal fashion, everything is more groove and techy now, in commercial terms you have all the electro house stuff very depressing. I would spend my 750 on a juno 106, korg poly 6 mono/poly, jx3p ,sh-101all killer!
@devmiles I agree that music stagnated somehow, same damn sounds, that's why I feel like going more analog again to get that edge from the other stuff, nothing beats a really fat unique sound that softsynths can't produce. So for techno/house/trance and also other stuff you would recommend Juno and those? I know the sh-101 is crazy on bass, didn't think it was so cheap though, only thing keeping me from buying many synths is the mono in them, I like to play a little and mono is limiting.
@M3sslah then go for a jx3p , jx8p, korg poly6, juno 106 all poly synths, classic rich sounding and affordable. for 750 euro's you can buy a waldorf pulse + juno 106 for instance. classic techno stuff
@devmiles I read wrong, Juno 106 have midi note send, no cc programchange but that is ok I guess, lots of nice knobs to tweak live instead. I must say the polysix sounded cool to, which brings me to a question about the newer Prophet 08 the desktop is like 1300 euros, I was thinking of that since it seems versatile but again like you said I get 3 of the other older ones then maybe. I mean for 1300 euros I get the juno 106, the pulse and the polysix maybe.
Is there a lfo delay on it? I thought i heard it around 2:30?

not so impresive :((( - its fat but its so expensive : / better Clavia or waldorf. : )

@theHackerOfMayhem I think the point is that it is fully analog.

@devmiles Thanks for all advice so far, I just read the Juno doesn't have midi, I know that is gonna be annoying, kinda sad it sounds fat.
