ABOUT THIS VIDEO
Join me for a drop-in visit with UDO Audio. I'll go inside their bungalow at Superbooth 2024 to learn about the Super 6, Super 8 and Super Gemini synthesizers.
We focused on the Super 8 polyphonic synthesizer and I was really impressed with its sound, simple to understand front panel layout and features. Listen to the sounds and tell me what you think.

Passionate Synth designers are the best. They do crazy stuff for talented musicians to be creative with. ❤❤❤
UDO is incredible! As an owner of Super 6 i mostly use to take on vacations, its my go to preferred synth to carry and also do some rough sketches of any tracks i get inspiration of to make. 🙌🏻🔥❤️

These keyboards really are a piece of magic. I like it. 😇 Great and beautiful, calm video.
So glad you took a look at the Super 8. Amazing synth. Was hoping to hear you on the Super Gemini! You’d kill on that thing. Next time then. Always great to see your videos, Anthony!
Dear Anthony, I think and hope that George was happy and proud to have you. UDO is an amazing brand since its launch. About Hardware, it's ambicious, it sounds round and bright, I just desire it for me. One day, soon... Please tell me if you enjoy it.
This company is well worth following. The Super 6 and 8 are lovely, and the Gemini multiplies the possibilities, with a bump in price. They are not cheap, but they seem well conceived and beautifully realized as playable instruments.
Loving these almost daily uploads from my favorite YT channel!
Amazing, didn't know about these guys! What a beautiful instrument. Thanks for showing us what's out there!
Really looking forward to seeing your hands on Super Gemini Anthony in some future videos.
Anthony! Would love to see you play the Super Gemini and get your thoughts - its UDO's flagship. Thanks for this demo!
Nice sounding synths and I love George Hearn's passion and vision - but until he finally breaks down and puts a tiny simple 2 line OLED display which shows modulation matrices and patch names, I can't enjoy a synth like this. I sold my UDO S6 as did several people I know who had them. As a sound designer working with another person you *need* to be able to come back to the synth and recall what is modulating the filter envelope, or a million other destinations, and by how much (values). And I'm not into reaching for a paper notepad to see where the patch I created last week is stored because I can't remember if it's called F7 or B2. And I didn't touch on wave importing - you're literally flying blind with a pencil and pad. There is something about George wanting it to be hands on programming like the Juno and Jupiter 6/8, but George put on wave importation and deep modulation routing. You can't keep track of those paths without a display when you've got 6-8 of them in a particular patch.
The Gemini is my dream synth
Anthony, would love to see you get more hands on with a UDO synth. They’ve picked up the spirit of some classic synths and put them in modern packages. I’ve got a Super 6 and it has to be the most enjoyable instrument I’ve ever sat down with. It’s so tactile and lovely sounding.
Wonderful music well done I love the scientific jam. ❤
wow! great demo and insights. Another synth added to my GAS list
Very very nice!! Gotta have this as a software synth if they decide to make one that way!! These keyboard sounds are gonna be in Film and TV as soon as it comes out!
I own the Gemini and spend many hours getting lost in it :)
I hadn't checked out the Super 8 yet. I got one of the first Super 6 keyboards to hit the US back in 2020. I traded it recently for a Super 6 module, but I carried over all my sounds from the keyboard and picked up where I left off.
Always wondered what your reaction to these synths would have been Mr. Marinelli, thanks. I think UDO makes one of the best sounding synths on the market today.
Anthony really has a gift and that trained ear for sound design. You can watch the gears in his head turning trying to figure out what is making each patch behave the way it's behaving.
Great questions and playing as always Anthony! Cheers 🍻
Great sounding synth. I like what he said about the orchestral idea.
cool sounds thank you guys you 💯rock
...just missed the live stream. My opinion about the UDOs is that there's a lot more under the aesthetic hood, f. e. the FPGAs also produce digital spectra, and as far as I know, the UDOs are the only binaural HW synths to date. Don't ask me what it"s exactly. It has to do with the stereo spreading but's more sophisticated. Since you understandingly seem to like the synth, I would definitely go for the Gemini. Since, as far as I know, it does without mod matrix, you don't get bored that quickly through layering sounds & spectra. Since (like heard in the vid) the LFO can act as 6th oscillator I assume there might be tracking for LFO Rate as well Otherwise it were "just" an audio rate LFO, what I don't believe.
Wow these guys seem to be making some really nice gear. Fatar key beds are really nice to play.
Sounds great!
It sounds as good as the Summit, both have digital FPGA into analog filters. However the Summit has tons more effects and other features. Both are nice.
Totally enjoy your videos!! The SUPER BOOTH 24 are great also. After listening to several of the videos, I can see your mind working overtime on sounds for your movie scores. Or even developing a movie after your scores!!
This is so cool, it kind of reminds me of a CS 80! I hope it will be somewhat affordable.
"Great Job" Yes, this synth is very emotional and expressive.
Their synths just keep getting better!
Not sure how one could have missed the Super Gemini. It's possibly the greatest synth in the last 10 years. Of course the 3rd Wave is amazing too. Waldorf Quantum and Moog One are fantastic, but not really immediate, like UDO.
That's a nice bit of kit ❤
Some great sounds at around 12:00 . Lovely modulations , reminiscent of the sort of things you can get from the VCS3 , due to then looping envelopes 🎶
😎 no doubt Anthony will dive deeper than most ! 🎵
Super
Love UDO! George is the man!
Beautiful synth. I played the UDO last years superbooth as well as this year. If money wasnt an issue i would get it immediately ;)
I think I've become addicted to your hands, hahahaha. Great video❤.
I have the super 6 desktop one. I love it.
Those are very nice synths
That sounds wonderful. Get a big artist behind it and ride the wave.
Wow! Dreamy design & features. Seems very playful, intuitive & fun….did you treat yourself? You are most certainly worth it Sir!
George has a prototype in his shop that is AMAZING !!!! It’s a one-of-a-kind synth that helped him start this U.D.O. journey ….
An awesome synth, a very very very affordable binaural synth that has its own character. Love it.
There are a couple of design decisions I would've done differently, but this thing sounds the biz
Great times we are in
Ok, now I need one.
Great video and great synth👍
Yeah, I’ve been a big fan, really, since before their first synth was making noise.. just by hearing the passion and how they were talking about synth design
Nice to see new synths, Anthony do you have a Korg polysix ? It was my first, sold it yeas ago. Would like to see you play something on one. Thanks Terence
I'm going to try that sine waves and wind witchcraft
Hello Anthony
It's styling reminds of of the Roland TR-909
🥰🥰🥰
Me ❤ UDO
Great vid! The most confusing release ever. I heard they’re going to raise the price of the Gemini did they mention that at all?
I was most surprised by the great sound and that it's mostly manufactured in Europe and not China.
Lol...he finally let you have a play, you basically had to pull him away from it. "" oi ! My TURN ! ""
de-esser , wow, that guys voice made me have to deal with t just to watch it. had to realtime de-ess him. I like how those boards look like the roland 707
Never discount us Brits to come up with something new. 😊
✌️
Anthony, you told them very clearly that that you really liked the 8 voice unit- yet they were a bit thick (playing it off?) even with the pauses you provided after your praise for the machine wherein they had ample opportunity to offer you one. 🤷🏻♂️I would've kicked you down as you're a legend and would be a top drawer user to reference!
Sounds like a Kraftwerk machine.
Price vs. Super Gemini is understandable, but not great IMHO. Internal observations and/or musician feedback that Gemini is BIG was 1 part of making this. The other was many (most if being brutally honest) just load a patch then twiddle cutoff and maybe an EG a bit. How many place a high value on seeing EXACTLY what both layers are doing live? Losing 2 (4 really) voices, the ribbon and 2nd layer interface for $500 is not a choice I would ever take. However, size/weight savings for losing something you do not value much could be just the ticket for some? Were I in that boat I would more likely go Super 6 desktop instead and pair it with a polyAT controller or synth.
sUper DOoper UDO.
Beautiful engineering there. Did I catch that the 8 has digital oscillators?

@@caleykelly yeah it's really fun to use as well. Very immediate and the oscillator also has a single cycle waveform. So you can get a lot more tonal variety compared to standard analog oscillators
Seeing this MF hands makes my hair stand like thriller.
Imagine having the money to buy this stuff. 🤣
Analog synths should always come with analog delay. I SEE DEAD POEOPLE
Everything pales in comparison to the Continuum setup in your house Anthony, but thanks for sharing these beautiful sounds nonetheless.
How many volts...??? 2 times 12 Volt...????!!!
Pretty skeptical about dropping this kind of money on digital. I have 3k headphones so I’m going to listen very carefully. Inspiration is obviously Roland sliders. I fully believe in digital but I have fallen in love with the idea of software/ midi/computer. Digital is great but my iPad which was 1.5k runs some pretty amazing synth programs and they will also run from my iphone also 1.5k but these synths are usually 15 bucks with the exception of pianoteq that is 150 bucks. With that being said these seem to be the coolest digital synths around.

It's FPGA, so you can't run the same technology on your PC or iPad, they're fundamentally different

Why is this synth so soft 😅 He needs sum harder patches
Wow man you are like 5 years late.
