A SMALL note on the modular could be made :D

Lovely studio, great taste, awesome talk. Really enjoyed it. Tobi seems like genuinely awesome person. Just a little comment to Deckard's Dreams, even the controls resemble CS-80, the sound / VCO / architecture and outgoing sound is quite different. VCO is 3340 clone (so it is more SH101 / Prophet 5 etc. sound) and behaves lineary instead of IG00153 that is controlled exponentially also the filters sound different. Dont get me wrong, still amazing and amazing sounding polyphonic synth. I would recommend to dive into real CS and getting for example (still extremely affordable) CS-15 (thank or hate ma later). All the best! :-)

I too have Yamaha's first synth the SY-1. Love the thing. Really characterful sounds, basic control but plenty of range on the "preset" switches.

macht viel spaß und freunde. danke sehr!

Oh no... Tobi can't say the Moog Minimoog Voyager can be disappointing for basses... My Minimoog Voyager XL is the first synth I use for basslines and there are some videos on my channel proving its bass quality sounds. ♥ For me the Minimoog Voyager sounds as good as the original Minimoog and it's a pure joy to have patch memory and MIDI natively on it. The real modern Minimoog. :) I agree with him about the Jupiter-8 beast & Deckards Dream mkI and its expander. Excellent instruments for sure! Novation does really good stuff as well, including the Summit yeah. Really nice episode!

Yeah. That's quite misleading what he says. What's more likely? That he has a poor listening position with low frequency cancelation in his old room where he was using those Keyboards? Or that Moog somehow managed to design nearly a dozen synthesizers that all have notes that drop out? 🤔 I'd say it was user-error. But.. like him I haven't actually owned a real minimoog, so maybe there really is something to it. I know that I prefer my Mother 32 for techno style bass to my slim phatty and micromoog. Had a voyager in the university studio and the bass was insane... but that's 12 year old fading memories.

Well it was my experience. I gave them a try for more than 2 years, Voyager and Sub Phatty. Somehow the bass at the end was always a problem, it was swimming and not really there. Some notes were over present, some disappeared. And believe me I know my shit. On the SH 101 this problems doesn't exist neither on the Pulse or there SE-1X. And since I‘ve own the Minimoog I know what was wrong with the other Moogs. They didn‘t use a discret voiceboard. They work chip-based, with integrate circuits. And that made them blurry and undefined. The Voyager is a great synth no doubt, but one OSC, triangle wave (for me the supreme discipline) was never convincing me.

It’s a shame, because the new SH4D is a true beast with a really good workflow and a really really good emulation of those classics Roland synths. I understand what Tobi said about the legacy of Roland’s stuff, and he is right when we talk about some recent gears that sound too plastic and perfect, without any organic feelings. I have a TR8, it sound good, but without processing, it sound too « digital perfect » for e.g. But, this is not systematically true, and I think we don’t have to be snobbish when a digital one virtualise some og’s analog just because there are digitals… The SH4D sound massive and dirty, and I think he has some permanent kind of drive on the filter, who make the feeling that it sound analog. 2500 euros for a Juno106 or 1700 euros for an SH101 seriously lol…

Surprised he says the Summit doesn't have any character. The tones I heard from it in this video alone sounded more interesting that most of the other synths demo'd.

There's a few synths I've regretted selling over the years. The Waldorf Pulse is one of them, and it surprises me these still aren't very expensive for how great they are. Such a solid, very direct sound. Think it was Kirk Digiorgio that recommded them when I was a teenager (yip, in Sound on Sound 1998!). Videos like this might mean the prices go up ;) I do think last time I checked they might have been selling for 400+. Think I sold my Pulse to fund a Moog Voyager. But, Voyager wasn't necessarily better, just different. Love my Novation though.
