  • seems more "consistant" or full than any jupiter ? Worth it ?

  • Well. The sound is straighter. Its a bit colder as well. I Didn't have time to test the envelope syet (jupiter 8 is awesome for that to do some fast agressive basses).

    But generally, I would say its more "interesting" and that you can make

    more complex sounds as well.

    so yeah ! if you can find one, go for it !

  • weird, it sounds like an 8bits synth ? Or maybe it's the sound quality ?

    Nice tune at the end.

    Another great piece of gear you have there !

  • yeah, it has this "stepiness" in the grain :-/

    but also i sample at a low rate for the video

see all

  • @thermalmaximum you must mean the one of paint drying?

  • @steveavison Yeah, I saw your video, really great!

  • @Marcy1Darcy Only problem there is that the MKS-80 is the guts of a Jupiter-6 in a box, not a Jupiter-8.

  • @vjrei The real magic happens when you use all six voices to make one sound, not just strict unison, but a six voice analog 'stack' with different sounds on every voice along with panning, etc. Very different from a Jupiter in unison (I have an MKS-80/MPG-80 to compare) It just depends how far you want to go, and what your goal is. The Xpander is a programmers tool, not an 'instant gratification' synth. -M

  • any daft bastard could do this,,,,

  • wow.. love this sounds..

  • it's poor . i hear nothing interesting. Play more energically !

  • Love the incredibly wet fart at 00:11

  • Yes . i had one. they sound good but too many options not enough nobs and i don't like the continuous dials. love the obx, ob1 and sem. 12db filters make me dribble at a cerain frequency. they're magic

  • You know... I believed I was the only one who think the Oberheim Expander and the Matrix 12 are way overrated. I mean, I haven't see anything WOW! about them. Probably they sound really strong, yes, but I rather have an access Virus Polar instead or Nord Wave to really do WOW things.

    I haven't seen the first video in youtube with a real unusual sound or anything done with those synths. Poepl just repeat "they are the collest" but they just sound old and flat and are totally boring.
