    Seems like this lives up to the ob-x and although a limited sonic palette like all great instruments thats what makes then wonderful. We have strayed from limited perfection to unlimited mediocrity. When you think about it, a piano, a Rhodes or a guitar has a limited palette but most music is composed on them. Why isnt it enough for the synth community to love something that produces a few wonderful sounds. Why do we seek 10,000 presets?

    • @supercompooper

      Damn well said, I agree 100%. A simple palette with some FX..it opens up a new world of sonic capabilities. Humans like to complicate things,I think this synth will help slow time down and with the split keys function open amazing realms sonically.

    • @GizzyDillespee
      @GizzyDillespee ปีที่แล้ว

      Of all the things to be upset about, "too many presets" is pretty low on the priority list. I could see I there were thousands, but who cares. I've had the Wavestate for almost a year, and finally started going thru the presets a few weeks ago! I hadn't erased them, since we can save thousands of our own presets, too, and they weren't getting "in the way" of anything else I was doing.

    • @mitsanut5869

      Human ear is capable of registering only a limited number of sounds that it perceives as pleasant.
      That's why the original Fender sound will always be sought after, that's why genuine Oberheim sound will always be likeable.
      They have THAT special color to them that human brain reacts positively to. It's difficult to describe in few words, and warmth would probably be included in that list.
      I have OB-X8 on pre-order precisely for this reason, because I've always viewed Oberheim sound as the warmest and the most uniquely expressive of all synths.
      If you're a player and not a habitual knob tweaker because you're never happy with any sound and your playing sucks, then OB-X8 is probably the instrument for you. If you're the other, then go back to your million options on other synths and try to impress people with your knob tweaking talents.
      This is a player's instrument, and from what I could view so far, pretty damn good.
      Judging by what my guy at Sweetwater tells me about the number of pre-orders, this is going to be a huge, huge seller.

      Truly the problem with most synths today. Everything has to be different and versatile, but in doing so, creates so much mediocrity. Hence why analog synths are making a huge comeback. It’s just so big that these reissues sound absolutely stellar. Example, a polybrute sounds fairly mediocre to me. It can do some amazing things as a synth, but if the core of it sounds dull and uncompelling, then it doesn’t matter modulation wise, what it can do.
      The prophet 10 sounds compelling, and it’s modulation is fairly limited, but the core of it is truly stunning sound, and that works better in my opinion.

    I am sure this is going to be a favorite for some, others expect it to the be the be end of all of every synth ever released but get disappointed when they hear demos.
    They are the same who want Jump and Tom Sawyer demos, this synth is not for them.
    This synth is not for everyone but it does shine in what it can do.
    I look forwards to your patch banks, where you spend a ton of time getting beneath the surface.

      Those who want Jump and Tom Sawyer demos are trying to gauge whether it really sounds like the vintage OBs … and you’re right, this synth is not for them/they will be disappointed. It is, however, a nice sounding synth. Just not worth the asking price, imho. There are plenty of nice sounding synths around these days. But I wanted something as a backup for a vintage OB(-8).

      @@GEOSynths Hi, I am just about to buy one of these. I have just learned that the way it divides up multitimbrality is it allocates 4 voices to layer 1 and the other 4 to layer 2. Is that right?
      I had hoped much like my 198* TX81Z I could choose the amount of voices. IE I would have had a lead sound monophonic and the other 7 for a pad sound.
      As I was saying above these things are a lot of money. If it was truly Bi trmbral then it basically halves the total. However 4 and 4 voices is not much use to me. I need at least 6 for pads.
