The most important synthesis innovation since FM

oh no thats bad

eh thats overrated
saving patches + automating parameters is cool but i don't think a monosynth benefits from that workflow as much as drum machines/ polysynths/ and samplers do
i get a lot more use out of my ms-20 mini than i ever did the monologue

>ms-20 mini
>monologue
both shit

Is this some teenage engineering horseshit because that stuff is not that great.

Stick with the goddamn Moog synths.

compelling argument

>2019
>$1400 rompler
Lol, no thanks

>expensive synths that aren't optical synths
Pass.

it wasn't an argument, it was a statement of fact

it counts as an argument because you got triggered by a brand of toy.
no one has ever made a good piece of music using a moog sub phatty. every piece of gear under $1000 is shit according to gearfags

this blind hate lol..

lol i did a butthurt on you

>monologue
Monologue and Minilogue are both good.

Blind, but accurate. The Electribe 2s is the superior device, and is like 1/4 the price

u r correct bro i am seething

Yes, this is fucking accurate.

Also, try to find a Polivoks if you can.

i-is this the comfy synth thread

lol

heck yea sis

I want a Digitakt, but I don't want to pay 700$.
What are some cheaper drum machine/samplers for a beginner? I got a DeepMind6 not too long ago and I wanna pair it with some percussion/samples so I can make more than just a t m o s p h e r e.

Are the Volcas worth checking out or will I just be disappointed by a lack of effects?

fuck a wheel, it reinvented a whole mode of transportation

I have a volca keys, it's nice for the price. I plan to buy a Monologue to get further into the world of analog synths in order to do some Suicide (first album) shit.

>i don't actually listen to music, the only media i consume is itunes visualizer
literally name one (1) innovative thing in 2019
the model:samples is 75% of a digitakt, the volca sample is 75% of a m:s
if you have a mixer throw some guitar pedals in the fx loop and ur good to go

Korg Electribe 2. I want to use one as a sampler for various pre-recorded sounds.

>paying $500+ for a sample pack attached to hardware that's infinitely inferior to soft solutions

oh ho ho.
just buy a thinkpad and pirate some samples instead.

i have some experience with unity and i saw the op-z can do it

is there any reason to not buy it?

I have a volca beats, fun little piece of gear and surprisingly helpful. You have to tweak a little to get some decent snare though. I pass it through a Big Muff and a delay for fun. I think with something like a Volca Beats you could get a decent start.

>pirate some samples
Make your own faggot.

i-is this the comfy synth thread?

the type of person paying $500+ for a sampling drum machine isn't going to do that

could you guys stop being poor?

Volcas are sort of bullshit because you can't load your own samples, why would I use stock samples when I can go and play drums or any sound I want and use that instead?

>the type of person paying $500+ for a sampling drum machine isn't going to do that
Probably because they're a fucking moron who can't play drums.

Well, that's the same for a lot of drum machines, you buy them for the possibilities they offer but they're far from endless. That's why I bought one. I can load any sample I want on Cubase but there's too much to chose from, I like the limited choices and getting the best out of them.

except the one with sample in its name
and you can use the sample loading software (vosyr) as a simple step sequencer on the computer

>Well, that's the same for a lot of drum machines, you buy them for the possibilities they offer but they're far from endless.
Yeah, that's generally why I want to get past the entry point and just buy something that allows me total freedom to do what I want. I play a whole bunch of instruments, conventional and unconventional, and like samplers/drum machines as a way to concentrate different things into compositions.

>literally name one (1) innovative thing in 2019
Phase Plant's signal chain with Multipass. Puremagnetik is also putting out "pedals" for acousmatic sound design each month, blending spectral processing, bucket-brigade delays or whatever the fuck they come up with. Madrona is working on a semi-modular spectral + FM synth.
Of course, if your thing is cookie-cutter pop shit, you don't need to worry about any of that and stick with your expensive toy.

*loads up SDSV sounds*

YEP theY DONT MAKE DRUM MACHINES LIKE THEY USED TOO

Si sunce we're talking synths, what are the pros & cons of the Korg Monologue?

the absolute best part about it is seeing the waveform of the sound

Pulsar 23 by Soma Labs

kind of interesting but i don't consider any of that more innovative than adapting hardware to meet modern daw trends. it's just making VSTs more fun to use.. "muh experimental workflow" doesn't guarantee challenging or interesting results. for the kind of music i like simple gear works well.. i sometimes lose my patience watching people play with eurorack and getting more lost in an intellectual process than feeling the sound

this.

pros: slides per step sequencing, so it can do the tb-303 acid meme
cons: always sounds really bassy

Pros: tons of great features all the pro users want
Cons: sounds too then / filter is weak

18 uniques oh lawd

For the price range, I guess it could not be perfect. But I guess it'll be enough to do electro punk and shit like that.

I have one of these.

I also have Caustic on my phone that cost me literally 100x less but can do 20x more. Why in the name of fuck would anybody use something that can only record on 4 tracks. 8 tracks would make it useful again but still insanely over priced.

Gonna sell it because I can at a profit due to stupid fucking hipsters who don't know Caustic.

Because Teenage Engineering is ridiculous bullshit and you should buy something actually useful instead of being a dumb synth fetishist.

4tracks can be enough but, yeah that's too expensive.

Like ffs I play synths on records, but I can do virtually anything that I play on synths on guitars and samples etc, and all that costs less.

Attached: reddit.jpg (640x480, 25K)

it's an incredibly fun toy but the cost is rediculous given it's limitations, portable or not. I could buy an incredible laptop and battery pack for that price and it's not like either would fit in my pocket, if it was like a grand less I'd start taking the bus to work just so I could play with it on my commutes.

it costs just a little bit less than most peoples monthly salary. I'm above the threshold and still think its insane considering I could buy a dope ass analogue synth with that money or just take a vacation. digital synths are a bit of a joke if you have a computer anyway

>make a alright synthesizer on the google app store
>literally steal a beach boys sample from kokomo but nobody called me out on it
>2/5 stars about as good as i expected
