digman Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 http://www.akaipro.com/product/timbre-wolf#overview I'm not sure why they kept the Wolf in it's name when it seems like the Rythm Wolf is one of the most unpopular machines ever made.

Audioblysk Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 I've heard these have really weird tuning issues. Spend money and save the headache of buying shitty synth's.

peace 7 Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Garbage, buy might serve some purpose. For example: Making shitty music. As far as tuning is concerned, apparently this does or at least can stay in tune (?), but it takes 45 minutes or something like that to warm up properly. Still sounds retarded, though.

modey Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Oh, to be fair, the one output per voice feature, as well as having completely separate controls for each voice, sounds pretty good (as well as the round robin style of switching between them when it's used in poly mode). It could be possible to get some pretty nice sounds out of it if used as a monosynth.. but then again, nothing can save it if it has tuning problems. If they did something similar using digital oscillators instead of shitty analog ones it'd probably be a lot better. Also, fake wooden panels? I hate that fake vintage shit, why can't synth manufacturers move on?
