Music like the Street of Rage 3 OST are why this synth needs to be considered. The tone is such a unique sound of FM and it has a great balance between hifi and grit. That along with knob per function is just

The Sega FM chip has a lot of nonlinear distortion that isn't really replicable in any VST or other hardware. I think the closest cousin is the DX11, but even then the Sega FM chip has grunge thats unique. Similar to the Twisted Electrons TherapSID its basically a Rolls Royce of chiptune synthesizer...

How would you compare the Digitone to Ableton Operator plug-in when it comes to sound design possibilities and sonic quality (not looking at the sequencing aspects of the Digitone) ? Ableton Operator has a lot more going on. If you use and like Push then there is little need for Digitone IMO. For a...

I think the issue is in synthesis itself. Any of the interesting things happening sound-design wise are coming out of places like IRCAM or GRM, or similarly-minded commercial companies like Zynaptiq. All digital, all software. Part of the challenge of bringing that to hardware is that unlike a subtr...

Word is that the Boomstars are better. If it wasn't for import taxes to the EU I'd have been very tempted, but they're expensive to begin with. Here is a Boomstar 3003 for $450. Sounds more like a System 100 than a TB303 clone, tons of timbre to explore. Even with shipping, $450USD is a steal https...

Hypex is a company that specializes in fast-response Class D amplifiers. They are mainly wholesale for high end mastering and reference audio speakers such as Barefoot. They also sell parts for DIY projects. This is the type of amplifier in a pair of speakers that costs $12,000-20,000 The Hypex NC40...

yeah, what "DIY" spirit involves hundreds of machined parts designed by corporate entities, using limited-use tape created from chemical processes, and further requires money any time you want to record? I never knew DIY meant paying a corporation to record per-minute. If you want it as p...

It seems like they added something to the Peak architecture. The Peak had three filter toggles - LP, BP, HP. The Summit has four. LP, BP, HP, and what looks like the word "wave" ... ? https://i.imgur.com/bTNRQKg.png EDIT: :hyper: "Three distortion points for each voice – pre-filter, p...

OTO Bam does everything you want and more, it sounds a notable step better than any other piece of gear listed (but that is reflected in the cost.)

New is $650 USD, can be found for cheaper. Its truly the best modern hardware reverb unit I have heard, and will be a future classic.

Fock,,, someone just come out with a prophet VS reissue already. :hyper: This looks so amazing on its own though! :eek: If I am reading the vague description right, it’ll be similar to the NI Razor in that it uses the concepts of subtractive to create additive synthesis. Razor is phenomenal but has...

A compressor with wide parameter ranges typically shows who has good ears for gear tweaking, and those who don't You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him think

all the editing possibilities has the consequence that a beat takes me 20 minutes to make instead of 2-5 as with all of my other drum machines. I already have a Model:Samples which is excellent for very quick beat creation. And just today they released an update for it adding Sample Locks, which is...

TDR's Kotelnikov is truly the best mastering compressor plugin ever made, I think there are rivals for limiting and EQ (mainly from DMG, another insanely talented programmer) but if Kotelnikov was in a rack mount it would sell for thousands, easily. The fact its free is even more insane.

Can you mention if it tries to do vintage delay types, a la Valhalla Vintage Verb but for delay? Also will it be streamlined code, or taxing on the CPU? I have an OTO BIM and BAM, but I would love a good VST delay. The only other one I have outside of Ableton Suite is the Max 4 Live Dub Machines by ...

I was the drum leader of my high school’s marching band, and also played in experimental /krautrocky type bands. With drumming you need to learn that “jamming” is a separate entity from “practice.” You will not get better if you just jam. You need to practice like you were in a military drum corps. ...

UPDATE TIME

There is no way to permanently stop updates in Windows 10 However, to temporarily stop them, open command as administrator and type these three lines (press enter after every one): net stop wuauserv net stop bits net stop dosvc At least one, probably all three are running. Will improve performance. ...

Meaning things will look like they will work, but not always. Most people make two distinct audio interface purchases. The first is whatever they can afford. The second is what they realize they need for their studio. It seems like you’re about to do the first, but need to do the second. Look into a...

Back on topic -- Has there been a more comprehensive review of the new wavetables? really curious to see what they all added. I have had hands-on experience with the new firmware. A lot of spectral and harmonic shifting stuff, a few more physical modeling algorithms, a few more choral tables. It so...

The Mod Matrix is much improved. Even being deeply familiar with Peak, the 2 pages for sources and destination would still trip me up. Just curious since you’re already using the new firmware - how do you enter the second modulation source? Do you just double tap the button for modulation source or...

You use the components app to create a miceotuning preset. You just drag pitches to a MIDI keyboard map, save and export.

Can anyone tell me what components are in these OTO boxes that make them $600? I'm not against high end effects as I have a $400 Source Audio Ventris reverb but this is a LOT. Am I just paying for what is essentially a software algorithm here (like on my other pedal)? OTO BIM has three analog filte...
