Sure but they all do the same thing, they don't allow you to do any more, just more ways to do the same things.Funkybot's Evil Twin wrote: ↑Sun Nov 01, 2020 2:03 pm Except Diva offers multiple sets of oscillators, filters, and envelopes
Like I said, little things. Enough to make it slightly more versatile not "chalk and cheese", as was suggested.a second high pass filter, much more flexible LFO's, full ADSR envelopes.
No, just a slightly wider palette, or subtly different. It doesn't have anything like DUNE's 3-op FM, ArcSyn's dozens of waveforms, Pigments' Granular engine, Thorn's Harmonic Filter or Glitch Sequencer. It just has the same basic things, with a few extra options so you can squeeze a bit more out.Oberhausen and Diva are only variations on a theme in the sense that most subtractive analog synths probably share a very similar structure and layout. But Diva is capable of a much wider palette of sounds.
Sure but what does that get you? Bugger-all in my experience. I'm much happier that Brainworx made it an on/off switch.Oberhausen is a nice little synth, but it is pretty limited compared to Diva. Even Obsession has the advantage of allowing you to tweak each voice which you can't do in Oberhausen and could do in an Oberheim 8-Voice.
Sorry, but you're wrong. It is amazing, incredibly so. As I said yesterday, since I got it I have not opened Obsession or either of the RePros even once. Diva impressed me so much, I didn't even see the value in it at half price.Funkybot's Evil Twin wrote: ↑Sun Nov 01, 2020 10:04 pmIt's not amazing, it's not terrible. At $29 it's a bargain, at regular price it's a joke.
To what end? I am yet to come across a situation where I've felt the lack of a release parameter was limiting what I could do. And oberhausen is easily my most used synth over the past couple of months so if it was an issue, it would have reared its ugly head by now. It's something that would once have put me off but I discovered with Waldorf's Rocket that it just doesn't matter.
