vamos scorcho Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 out of curiosity I suggest each list their favorite 1. software synthesizer 2. hardware synthesizer and maybe which you like more software synth: so far the FM8. I like the sounds it's capable of and I've enjoyed exploring it thus far. I feel somewhat bored with it from time to time... I feel really like I need some hardware I can be more enthusiastic to play with. overall though it can produce most sounds that I'm after rather quickly, seeing how flexible it is. still, like I said, my mind wants even more possibilities, and I don't mean like Reaktor. hardware: I'm 21 and I don't own any hardware. I've got a casio nearby that I circuit bent but it's so fucked up from that I can't get it to turn on now. I've got a shitty Akai drum machine that I utilize from time to time. luckily I do have an amazing drumset, piano, guitar, and bass at my disposal instead [boring]. I really need some new synths though Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/65884-list-your-favorite-synths/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Diao Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 My favorite hardware synth I've used would be a tie between an Sh-101, a Memorymoog, and a Jupiter 8. My favorite synth that I actually own would probably be my Oberheim Matrix 1000, but the fucking thing has this nasty hum its developed that pisses me off to no end. I have no idea if its fixable or not, and if it is, I don't know who to take it to to fix it. Harumph. So I guess my favorite fully working synth would be my Unique DBE. As far as a fav softsynth, I have no idea. I use them very, very rarely, and when I do, its at random.

Guest MrSparkle666 Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 ^ We have similar taste... Software: Ichiro Toda's Synth-1 (most of the time) and Dcam Synth Squad (when I'm trying to 'fake' analog itb). Hardware - A toss between my Shruthi-1 and my Juno-60, but I dream of someday owning an sh-101 (almost considered trading my Juno for one) Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/65884-list-your-favorite-synths/#findComment-1574274 Share on other sites More sharing options...
