I drove the whole store nuts with this for weeks, and the manager was pissed at me because I was being a mad scientist and not selling. I hated it when one of the synths I was using got sold, because it messed everything up. i would lose a finger to have been you. that's a perfect example of what w...

looking for VSE user clips. Scott Hey Scott, the link in my signature has Supernova 2 mp3's & a video. i can't say with any certainty how close the Nova will sound in comparison, but the patches are not very involved next to the ones i've been coming up with lately. i doubt a Nova would be far off,...

looks like a nice educational tool for teens or starters. the 1/8" headphone out and onbord sounds are the deal-killer, though. I'd love to see Yamaha make this with just MIDI up the wazoo....maybe a USB jack to sequence VSTs and simplify data dumps...but LEAVE OUT the shoddy audio implementation - ...

it's the most powerful Novation synth for the money. Bread & Butter deluxe...get the keyboard if you make lots of patches or need a full UI(live tweaking galore), or happen to actually play the thing by hand.. http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/Aug01/articles/novaosv4.asp ...amazing what Google can do,...

the next step is to get a drum machine and make your own tracks. once you start you'll never look back! A sampling drum machine w/ a sequencer would give tons of flexibility...ESX-1, MPC, RS7000 w/ the LP & A Station thats a lot of coverage. Maybe add an FM synth or something with more upper frequen...

for Oberheim Matrix 6/1000 get a spare CEM 3396 or two. The voice chips can to go out after 15-20 years. M6 has wide body version (600mils), M1000 the small (300mils) one. for Korg Polysix , #1 hazard is battery leakage. Be sure to get full confirmation the PCB has not been leaked on before you buy.

Build quality seems to have been going to h**l consistently since about 1985 or so. More metal on metal or wood, please. For example, I'd really like to have a dedicated MIDI controller board, but refuse to buy because i still haven't seen one that isn't built like a flimsy p.o.s.. More knobbage is ...

Re: Inputs?
Firstly, I'm not a fan of MIDI then you should probably stay away from synths and get a bass multi-fx unit or bass synthesizer pedal. Unless you know how to prgram, a synth isn't going to offer much for a bass player beyond filtering and envelope following, of which there are already many dedicated...

\ It does not have to be a "vintage sounding" bass/lead synth. I'm more interested in one that packs a full, solid punch. One that can be rich in harmonics on its own without FX/EQ, etc... How do the raw oscillators of the Pulse sound? I assume it has DCOs. Does it produce audible zippering when co...
