ACE Hole

As a Bazille owner, I always ignored Ace because I always saw it as just a watered down version of Bazille. But I've heard that Ace has some better analog modeling. Is that true?

Ace is more classic analog subtractive... PWM, Osc Sync, the classic waveforms. It's an under-rated little synth. It is also normalized so you can do a whole lot without needing wires and then when you want to re-wire it, you can.

Don't believe your eyes until you hear it. The short of it is no. Dig up Berlin Moodular thread for initial back n' forth about it all. ACE is a piece (or pieces) of what was supposed to be a full "Berlin Modular" system and Bazille was also a component of BM, IIRC. I've slept since then BM features digi OSCs ;ACE have anal-modelled OCS

Same here. Had Bazille and thought ACE was something lesser/redundant, so I ignored. Then this year, I went seeking analog percussion sounds and found a bunch of great stuff in the ACE community library ... Wound up buying ACE a few days later.

In fact, the community library for ACE has got a lot of good stuff! I guess that's when I realized ACE is a different animal.

Btw, the KYHON-Mun_Mtshams_2 library has a patch called "MidY 1" and it's a true gem. Just push the mod wheel up and say "wow"

Even though they look kinda similar they are completely different when it comes to sound. Bazille is a very digital sounding synth and sounds more gritty thanks to PD and FM and can create some very experimental sounds. ACE sounds and behaves analog, and has the fatter/fuller analog warmth to it with some gritt. I always end up using ACE for basses and sub basses as no other synth on the market seems to be able to make that same combination of warmth and gritt as ACE.

Thanks for the feedback guys, I'll definitely go spend some more time with ACE.

ACE have anal-modelled OCS

Truly filthy oscillators...

But remember kids, always think twice before abbreviating

ohh,.. you mean, Any Cable Anywhere? but i thought surely sewer-minded@kvr would make great jest if i wrote it out

truly,...put FILTHY cables in everywhere,...even places you don’t normally do. try putting them in every hole...do two multiples into ea. other...wrap your tap while riding the ramp..but neverever look back
