@@maydaygoingdown5602 The Gemini to me sounds like it looks, a bit bland. The Polybrute has an attitude, like you have to sit down and strap in when you play it. The last time I saw and heard something like that was when I bought my Jupiter 8 40 years ago. Boy does that make me feel old!

Just got mine last week! For those trying to compare this to the Polybrute 12 - this is a completely different beast. It can do stereo magic the Polybrute (nor any other synth) cannot. It sounds absolutely massive, beyond anything in or out of the box. It’s rich, expressive, immediate. It feels alive in a way no other synth I own, excepting maybe my Modal 008, does. To those claiming it’s “too expensive”, I’ll simply state what Ty Unwin said about the Moog One. This is a professional’s instrument - it is not meant for everyone nor to be accessible to everyone. There is a premium to professional goods. If this isn’t worth it to you then move along and let the rest of us enjoy it and make music. You do not have a god-given right to own a synth.

Is it just myself who couldn't hear any perceivable difference between bi-naural mode on or off?

It's hard no notice on a lot of videos but I can tell you it sounds and feels amazing with bi-naural mode on. I'm not sure if you'll be able to tell with what speakers you're using but I have a few pieces posted on my channel I can definitely feel in my music on my studio and house speakers.

I love hardware synths and i always have, but i wonder now, are there any hardware synths that can do what Serum and Vital and Massive X can do? And if not...Do we need outside the box anymore?

It's not just about features, it's about playability, the tactile experience and workflow. It's like asking "what's the point of playing violin if there's quality sounding violin sampled and physically modeled instruments?" If your main goal is just to get the sound down in a track, then Softsynths and sample based instruments are just fine. And it's easily argued that synths like Pigments, Falcon, VPS Avenger 2 and other mega Softsynths can do WAY more than almost any hardware synth. But for actual keyboard players, they want to dig their hands deep in those keys and turn rotary knobs that aren't midi CCd the a virtual controller..also, the work flow can be way faster on a hardware synth in many aspects. Unless you took the time to map out several midi controllers to all your various Softsynths, you inevitably have to turn rotary knobs and and menu dive with your mouse. This might visually seem easier, but it's proven to be more time consuming once you have a handle on specific synths. Lastly, most modern hardware synths serve as high end midi keyboard controllers. The Hydra Synth and Polybrute are fine examples. Of course, if we're talking costs...then yeah, then it gets insane on the hardware synth. Plus, as stated they couldn't do stuff like weirdo plugins from Sugarbytes and the likes

Why would you replace the arturia engine with a digital one? The Polybrute 12 sounds incredible. This thing can’t even touch the core timbre of that thing. It’s nice but ultra weak and frail. Might as well get a hydrasynth The polybrute 16 is a dream synth. Best sounding tone I’ve heard from a modern polysynth

Only $500 more than the Super 8 or Polybrute 12. $1500 less than the cheapest Moog One. I'd personally skip all that and get a used Sequential OB-6 and Iridum Core for less than the price of this UDU.
