A decent VST & MIDI controller is enough to pass as your "analog" synth sound wise. No ones going to know the difference. Short answer is "yes". It all depends on how you use it & set up your patches. Hopefully someone else can answer more thoroughly for you. The reason a lot of us like analog is simply because many more analog synthesizers have full knob control. Not true of all of course, less knobs started happening before VA synthesis took over.Tiger Jackson wrote:As the page here about it says, the oscillators are digital but the analog filters allow it to sound analog. But how much? I never used a full analog so i don't know the sound comparison myself. Is it good enough to pass as analog, so i can just use it for my "analog" synth?![]()
That's not a great reason. I bet you could think of more reason. If you get the right board, you would be able to use it for pads, leads, midi control, filtering external things etc.Tiger Jackson wrote:I don't really care about if anything sounds analog, but i've been thinking about getting an analog sometime just for the sake of having an analog.lol
usually when I buy something with that kind of reasoning, I end up kicking myself in the a*s later on for such a poor decisionTiger Jackson wrote:I don't really care about if anything sounds analog, but i've been thinking about getting an analog sometime just for the sake of having an analog.lol
i picked up my polysix off craigslist cuz i had a bit of spare cash and, coming from the guitar world, i was under the impression that analog was o k. that was my first synth and im still getting deeper and deeper, and the polysix did push me to get her sister mono/polySynthetech wrote:usually when I buy something with that kind of reasoning, I end up kicking myself in the a*s later on for such a poor decisionTiger Jackson wrote:I don't really care about if anything sounds analog, but i've been thinking about getting an analog sometime just for the sake of having an analog.lol
I don't blame you at all for wanting analogue, but the ESQ-1 is not gonna do it for you.Tiger Jackson wrote:I don't really care about if anything sounds analog, but i've been thinking about getting an analog sometime just for the sake of having an analog.lol
Why would low bitrate samples sound analogue? The lower the bitrate and depth the more digital something sounds, not more analogue.ryryoftokyo wrote:The analog filter and low bit rate samples help to give it a very analog sound
