That was only half of my post though, the point I was making is that different people use analog synths for different reasons. For some things, i.e simple subractive synthesis, sure, now it is practically indistinguishable. For some other things, like FM and anything else running at audio rate, its not at all.cryophonik wrote:95-99% of all people would, by any definition, equal "most people"Terrafractyl wrote:...I still disagree.cryophonik wrote:
Beat me to it. Nevermind that most people still can't tell analog from digital in a blind taste test.
...but 95 % of people would probably struggle. 99% probably if you are talking laypersons.
I use Reaktor 6 a lot, and I Demo'd Softube modular when it came out. I own Bazille etc etc
I also have an analog modular synth. Nothing on my computer still sounds like my modular when things start getting much further than a simple patch.
I used to be a staunch defender of digital audio and thought all the analog people were kinda elitist or something.... Mainly because a lot of what people find interesting about Analog synths doesn't really interest me. Like warbling slightly out of tune pads
Until I head an Oscillator modulating a self oscillating z2040 filter on a friends newly purchased modular synth.
My mind was instantly changed.
