I bought this and love it. At first i was a little frustrated because it's paraphony is more limited than i realized. But it's got a great sound and as i learn more I'm loving it more and more
Awesome, glad u also like it! 👌😄☕️yeah its really a beast that can scream and soar. Dual filters is lovely and the fx section is quality. Love it! 🏆
I did learn some things along the way, great vid. TY 😊
Wonderful, 😄💪🎅🌟🥁
I buyed it and i love this synth pro x! very easy and intuitive to use for any analog synth fan.
Thanks for writing. Absolutely. uno synth pro x is really quick to work with and adjust in a performance. 👌🌞🌟
@MattiasHolmgren yes I look like the world best ergonomic analog synth !!!! it's almost perfect. I suggested to add 1/2 and 1/1 for delay duration because we can make awesome tricks with this (just need more effect ram).If you suggest to IK also it's better because they say my suggest is forwarded to firmware dev team:)

I was just about to say who the heck needs another subtractive analog synth but this actually sounds incredibly good with that reverb, I wonder if that's an onboard reverb or if it was added?
It’s the built in reverb. The fx sounds sweet. 👌🥁🎅
Is the sequencer able to transpose while playing?
I'd like to hear why I should use this equipment VS a VST plugin. And how you used the original in performance mode. Do you use the X in live performances?
Hi, the most important fact with a hardware synth is that everything is just "there". You got your oscillators, filters, effects ready to roll. No need to "load" a vst or add effect plugins.
I would choose to use a hardware synth like the Uno Synth Pro X in a situation where I would like to have "more fun" and play with knobs and buttons for instant access to multiple controls to shape the synth sound, and also get that "analog & ballsy" sound.
I would choose a VST when I don't feel the need to do so much "shaping" and performance on the sound and rather work with automation.
So hardware synth for evolving arps.
I often lean towards software for long (sustained) bass sounds, and hardware for shorter bass sounds.
It also depends on the time I have for a project. If it's my own personal projects without deadline, I mix hardware and software, I have more fun that way because I like the tactile feel of twisting knobs and instantly access to several parameters. If it's a tight deadline for a client, it's often software because less fiddling with connecting gear.
I did a clip where I show original Uno Synth in action and how the live effects were used (but you have to look closely what happens because it's just music, no talking):

I totally thought the same but this actually sounds better than a majority of VST's I've heard. Including zebra, serum, etc
I'm tempted to get one of these. After making this video can you recall what cables you need to connect to it. Just so I know to get them too. Unless they come with it.
Hey its a beast. It comes with ac adapter and usb cable. I just used two regular telecables to hook it to audio ins of my audio interface. Uno Synth Pro X (and any other synth) does not come with tele cables for audio connection.
Growl / Vowel Screaming Filter at 02:26 ;)
❤sounds mean!
@@DaveSurberyeah pretty gnarly filters and drive in the Uno Synth!
That intro though! Are you getting into vfx?
Haha yeah always been. 😂🎅💪
I have the unosynth pro. It does sound excellent, meaty analogue. But it also has a noisy floor. I can quite often hear the tuning program at a very low level if I’m not playing anything.
I also had trouble getting it to sync with the app. Once I did get the app to sync, it made programming it a lot quicker.
Have you had any of those issues on any of your unos?
Yeah background / leak noise is often the issue with analog circuits, most gear have some sort of issue with this. I get it with Behringer Poly D, Uno Synths. More expensive gear will have less artifacts obviously = more expensive components, more space / improved isolation.
In a mix and after cutting the tracks its never an issue, as the ballsy volume will be million db louder.
What you can do is add a noise gate in your daw if it becomes an issue and you have like a very quiet passage with only a small sound that decays. Also check your ADSR so your AMP release is not too long. 👌
Did you update the firmware?
Hi Matthias, thanks for your reply. Good to hear I’m not alone. I agree it’s not really an issue in recording, big signal. I’ve just been manually cutting out sections on the daw. I didn’t think about a noise gate, I will try that. Thanks for the tip!
Yep firmware up to date
@blewits9474 yeah, we cut all other audio anyway so it’s no big deal! 🌟🤘
To me being tiny is the salient "attraction" here. Tiny knobs that are quite close together and you have to push a tiny button to move between oscillators. If that is your priority this delivers and sounds good while doing it. To me SE-02 is also too small though being bigger than this and having a better workflow IMHO while also sounding great. As always it comes down to wants, desires, and budget...
What's a good small controller to use with this synth?
Im using Keystep 37 which is a cool (and small) functional controller.
You didn't mention the Software App?
Yeah and I didn’t mention Bassline button. I can only cover so much in one video to make it digestable😄. I personally don’t use the apps because I feel you can do most stuff directly from the synth itself anyway. Or I would use a vst instead. But indeed it’s great to have the app if you like to fiddle indepth via a software instead. 👌🎅

I want to thank you for this video. If it weren't for this video I was about to not buy this synth. All of the other videos on this synth is terrible, loud, and pointless for me...
Thanks, appreciate the feedback. I try to keep a very high quality of all aspects like; content, audio and image in my videos. Happy to hear it comes across! ;) The Uno Synth Pro X is a sweet analog desktop synth! Quick to work with!
Buy Uno Pro for 200backs is better choise)
Uno Synth Pro is also an option. Depends on your workspace and if you need more keybeds too.
Are thé controls on the pro not too limited compared to X?
@@brunodadivore9606 not much, it's easy to control
Not a bad synth ive got the little Uno mono synth. I was going to buy this but decided to get a Dreadbox Typhon instead and I'm so glad I did. While I have played on one of these these the little Typhon just sound amazing.
Yeah I played Typhon at Superbooth 2023, it’s def also an amazing little synth. 👌🥁
@@MattiasHolmgren I do love all the hands on control the Uno X offers. Also I'd love to go to Superbooth but I'm in Australia so it's not practical. Cheers mate...
