Currently as keyboards i mostly use Novation UltraNova, Novation Bass Station II and a Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S61 (my main masterkeyboard at the moment). If i need a bigger keyboard with e.g. the Bass Station II or UltraNova i route e.g. the Komplete Kontrol S61 to them (in the DAW) or directly connect it via MIDI. I had also used a setup where i routed the Komplete Kontrol S61 to the UltraNova while i routed teh UltraNova to the Bass Station II (inside Live 9). All 3 keyboards have a Fatar keybed with both velocity and aftertouch.SayersWeb wrote:Oh... why did I read your post? I had no interest in getting a new hardware synth... recently, most of my music production is software synths, along with a Virus TI. I bought the Nova Desktop as my first analog style synth when it first came out. I loved it, still have it, but the power supplies keep failing, so I have given up using it. Then I read your post and after researching it (endlessly) now I have ordered an Ultranova. I certainly don't need it... This is the first hardware synth I have bought in many years... maybe even 10 years. I hold you personally responsible Ingonator!Ingonator wrote: A Supernova II emulation would be indeed cool but an UltraNova emulation would be even better IMO.
I'm a bit concerned about replacing a 61 ke controller with 37 keys...
Additioanly besodes a lot of softsynths i also got the Waldorf Blofeld and Pulse 2 desktop modules that are also used in comboination with the keyboards just mentioned (again routed in the DAW if possible or connected via MIDI if necessary).
