Disappointment in hardware synths

[thecontrolcentre]

Also, I don't see any issue with that approach, I'm sure that you can learn drive a car faster when you have it rather than you just read about it on the internet.

Driving lessons usually include use of the instructors car

Well, I was naive, then I discovered that there is no way to save patches, and I have to record the synth every time I change the patch, and all the CV hassle, etc. Finally, I came to conclusion that a pure analog synth is more a toy than a workhorse device. I can be a nice touch to a track to add one sound per analog synth, but that's it. So, I was wondering how others incorporate analog synths into their workflow.

I use a Moog Sub37. All patches can be saved and recalled just like a softsynth.

Dammit! You mean I’m going to have to learn how to recreate the sound I get from this patching?

you've got the photo, what more do you need?

ive just copied this! awesome kick sound dude

Thanks. Took me ages to get it to sound exactly like an 808.

If you double this setup you might achieve a nice bass sound, too.

Hi folks,

I was so excited when Behringer made analog synths affordable, without checking the limitations and how analog synths work, I bought Neutron and Model D and I was sure these two synths are more than enough to make "fully" analog tracks.

You just listed, why analog devices are so good
But why oh why you bought two mono synths? You need one poly too for chords (pads etc).


Though I made this with only one monosynth and a hint of creativity...

Song made with just a Neutron:

Another one, just Neutron + reverb + looper:

I don’t know if there are better examples out there, or whatever, they came up from a quick search.

And while that’s not how I use analog synths (in particular monos), well, it should demonstrate that yeah, they can actually pretty useful and flexible.

So right..

So wrong..

Should have gone to spec savers

Seriously you have to do your research on things. No point in complaining about the synths you bought here if you haven't done research on the features you need in a synth.. Just buy some Elektrons and be done

[Distorted Horizon]

Just buy some Elektrons and be done

And give your useless stupid toy mono analogs to me

Which ones would you like?

That neutron and model d he so disliked

Oh shit I don't own either of those.. Haha only synth I own that doesn't store patches is the behringer Crave lol
