Thanks for including us on your list! We're honored. We love what we're doing and your support means everything to us!
-
Thanks man, I haven't watched your channel before but this has to be the most comprehensive synth of the year guide I've ever seen. It looks like you've pretty much got everything covered at every price point. I'll definitely check out more of your channel and at the very least I'll be back next year to check out what's the best of the best. Great job.
-
Thanks - great to hear your take on all these synths. Sh-4d might be the value buy for me but you introduced me to synths I did not know existed like the Nina. Good stuff.
-
Wow @vultureculture that is a comprehensive look at all the categories one could be interested in! Great job, and I definitely wasn't so familiar with many of these, so it'll be a good reference for me moving forward this year. Personally, I have the 3rd Wave in my sights, but I need to make room in the studio and budget first!
-
Great job on this video! Favorite recommendation - Studiologic SLEDGE!! YES!! That thing sounds fantastic, and the FEEL is AMAZING. Thank you so much for that one! Keep up the good work here on your channel. 😀

This is an excellent list of a lot of synths work trying. I do not need anymore gear, but it’s time to add a Dreadbox piece to my set up sometime this year.
-
Excellent run through. Have to say, I love the sound of the Nymphes every time I hear it. Dreadbox seem to be very good at getting grit and character. Tempting. I already have the Take 5, and it always sounds gorgeous. That Nina would also be awesome. It’s got the sound and the power. As far as a good groove box, the Synthstrom Deluge is a monster. Various synth engines, incredible workflow. It also has a sanctioned open source version now which has been adding some crazy features. Everything unlimited, only bound by CPU.

great video, thanks for diving into different brands, I didn't know what I was missing
-
Just found your page and subscribed right away. I had a D50 for over 25 years until its demise due to a power supply failure. The funny thing is, losing it is what brought me into the modern world of VSTs. I am about to sign up for Roland Cloud and will be picking up your D50 library when I do. I can't wait to see what treasures your video archive has in store for me. :)
-
What a great overview of the synth landscape. Thanks!
-
Thanks for the list! 👍🏻 The MiniFreak is already on my short list after using it in V Collection X… that sold it for me right there… seeing it talked about here means it’s being ordered tonight 😂
-
This is my favorite synth rundown video ever. You covered a lot of ground, and the video had a snappy good pace to it. The best part is that you covered plenty of the synths I’ve had my eye on, which was nice to see all in one place, and there were good surprises. Now I gotta get more work so I can try to get a little something here and there. Thanks, and for me, this was a nicely produced video.

Felt soooo good when you gave Korg - Drumlogue high marks in its category !! 🎈 Questioned my comparative analysis chops, yet darn please in early days usage. ASM Hydrasynth Deluxe top of short list now, and pleased with your evaluation ! Such Behringer 'mixed feelings' 🤷🏻♂ DeepMind 12 has been superb since early 2023 purchase ..... now so hesitant with UB-Xa. Rad video in first days 2024. 🙏🏻 Happy New Year !
-
Fascinating watch, thank you! Gotta say that the Terra has been my revelation, using it for industrial and IDM styles, as it has reminded me that so many synths disconnect me from actually listening to the music rather than looking at the interface. Has made me play so differently, more about the tactile guitar expression...helps that it can sound utterly filthy and has some of the best reverb and delay on a synth I’ve heard in some time
-
You have a really excellent sounding voice for this kind of thing and it's perfectly recorded/produced.
-
love this content !!
-
A happy and wonderful new year 🍀
-
Nice guide, at the end of the day, choose well what you can afford and what suits your needs and you can't go wrong
-
New subscriber here, and I have to hand it to you that you are really on point with your suggestions and observations. Great content and I stayed awake through the whole program 😆
-
the one machine I think you should really have included was the Synclavier Regen- it is an extraordinary machine (with poly pressure) and is insanely flexible as a synth.
