    Excellent video thank you so very much! Kept me from selling mine. Menu diving on this synth really takes it to another level.

    Thank you for this video - I really enjoy the depth of the new Gaia, especially the effects and pattern sequencer. Your video does a tremendous job of peeling back the initial complexity of the synth. I am not sure Roland did themselves a favor with the monochromatic aluminum and sleek black knob design. This synth cries out for an Oversynth-like skin to help users quickly makes sense of where everything is laid out and how to access the sound design parameters. That said, I'd hate to take off and reinstall all the tiny knobs to accomplish that. I've paired mine up with the Roland WC-1 Cloud dongle and have the Juno 106, JX-8P, and Jupiter 8 models loaded onto mine in addition to the SH-101. The tone possibilities in the studio from this one synth have enhanced my productions since buying it.

    Huh. Yeah, after checking out other videos for presets i really like it. Its a perfect fully featured synth but at a mid entry level price. I might actually get one one dag

    This is the first time I've heard an examples. It kinda has the flavor of Reason's Europa with the wavetable presets

    NIce video, how does it compare to the Minifreak?

    Both are great, very different in a sense that GAIA 2 offers more traditional synth-like hands-on control, while the minifreak is a bit of a nod to the future with the unique osc modes and software control system. The GAIA2 has MUCH nicer keys, so if you like PLAYING the keyboard that's a big factor too.

    ​@DashGlitch It's nice huh! The keybed is extremely good. I really love the whole thing, and I found it very easy to transfer modulation techniques from Bitwig to it. Really fun! Great video man 👍

    @@DashGlitch yeah. theres a dice icon on wavestate, and its called random. i guess you select which parameters to randomize, press the button under the dice icon et voila. im not quite sure whether you have to select which parameters to randomize, or whether wavestate randomizes per patch (aka korg decides it for you), ‘twas a long time ago since i watched reviews for original wavestate (mkII is the current one). i like the idea of stumbling upon greatness by randomness. haha. cheers.

    @@DashGlitch ok, cool. thanks for the info. at least theres some randomness. btw, im shopping around and i wonder, have you ever tried, or experienced, working with any of the following: yamaha modx+/montage m and/or roland fantom 0/fantom? im sick of computer mice and keyboards, so im thinking of getting a synth/workstation. looked at all reviews, and honestly im sick of them showing of wurlizers and, i just vomitted a bit in my mouth, brass presets. so, im trying to gather as much info as i can. id be primarily insterested in creating downbeat chill in style of aes dana etc, and maybe dabble with psychill, maybe even psytrance but no one shows if those styles can be achieved with synth workstation, only elevator music haha. so, did you ever hear someone doing psy/techno with those, have you ever tried it, any info is more than welcome. if not, its fine. just asking around, lol. i know modx+/montage, ive seen and heard in a few videos electronica/psy(ish) downbeat type of stuff, even breaks type of stuff and it did sound noice, but i need more info. anyways, thanks for reading my blog. cheers!

    What does 'sending me the synthesizer' mean, does it mean you review it and sent it back or can you keep it?

    Well it's not really a review, more a tutorial on how to use it. I'll also be making presets and other content for it. Yes I am keeping it, but to keep working & teaching with it. I am super lucky and privileged to have the opportunity to do it, I think it's because my content is more than just reviews :)

    The dinky plastic stuff like the Boutique and those things are trash, but their flagships are solid, have been since the ghosts of the past. Any link or evidence of that CEO's words?
