Im thinking about tracking down a Jupiter 6 - it sounds like everything I want in an analogue polysynth apart from it lacks velocity, and to a lesser extent - aftertouch... Would it be possible to Mod a J6 with a modern keybed with velocity and aftertouch? If it had the europa update? Or would it be...

I just found this video of the new arpeggiator in action:

Can anyone tell me if the Little Phatty offers legato portamento? Or is it only normal glide?

Thats it - Ive been agonising over what polysynth - but I think the Jupiter 6 is the one....

what is a reasonable price for a Sunsyn?

yup - the ricecake gag was a good one......

most synths these days are like ricecakes

useful thread I was wondering what the deep house chords were...

depends what editor you are using but I would just 'send' to the OB and save it within the memory - you can replace the first 200 patches I think

Anyone have any ideas whats going on with the Blofeld production? Seems like Thomann have taken it off their site. Seems rather worrying-I was hoping this was going to be a huge success for Waldorf and after a big FM review-its unavailable-surely this isnt a great business situation...?

well it really is a secret so it seems...

sooo......

how are the XS users getting on having had a bit of time to bed in and get to know thier instruments?

My interest has been revived by some cool new videos on Youtube...

Any more thoughts/demos?

dude I can barely understand your posts!

forget about what the specs are - go with your heart not your head....

(yeah!!!) \:D/

thats true - everyone prob has a different idea of 'warm' or 'phat'. Still - there could be a middle ground. Its like, if there is so much risk of subjective views, theres no point in bothering describing anything. I dont think that should be the case. I think if someone who really knows the score c...

The problem with reviews like this is that they often dont take into account the comparitive market - IE what else is out there as an alternative - and the strengths and weaknesses of the sound and where it might be used. An example of this is the posts above - saying the P08 excells in brassy and m...

these virtual analogues, tho nice instruments in themselves dont really do the vintage thing properly. take it from a massive 80s head, if you want those sounds, get the gear they had -basically vintage, or the modern equiv (basically a new analogue synth) the new stuff just dont cut it. just my op...

I didnt see what all the fuss was about either. I sold mine. Thought it sounded a bit plain. Mine wasnt in the best condition which didnt help the overall fell of cheap quality. I thought the Mod section was cool tho-but couldnt justify the whole synth for just that...
