My thoughts on the Sequential Pro 3.......6 months after buying!

- I thought it would be cool to give a 6-month reaction to synths I buy. I go through a lot of synths and I have to really like them for them to make the 6-month mark! I love this one. Here is a basic walkthrough of how I use it in my production setup! If you arent familiar with the Pro 3, here is a little refresher:

Finally the review I’ve been looking for from a perspective of how I would use it in my setup as a beat maker. Much appreciated.
Appreciate it, definitely what I’m aiming for 🎯
Hey whats up. How are you feelin about the pro 3 2 years later? Im on the fence about this or the 37. Im def loving the moog sound. You said it didnt play well with your mpc? How so? I wanna get a synth to work with my 2000xl and my 30000. Cool channel and nice vibes btw
Hey, yea 3 years later I don’t use it as much as I’d like. I actually just rearranged my studio to try to make myself use it more. It has weird midi implementation. I may have a bad one but I don’t know. When I have midi tracks armed small things happen that kinda throw my whole vibe off. Patches changing, notes hanging, etc. I never researched to see if it’s a problem with this one or what. I ended up buying another 37 if that helps or tells you anything.
@@VolcanoBeats that says a lot actually thank you
Fantastic overview , just picked up a Pro 3 and I’m digging it.
Appreciate that...awesome, you got a beast on your hands
I have a pro 3 and a moog matriarch, and I think that these two prevent the need for a subsequent 37 for me. You don't get the multidrive and the specific sound of the subsequent 37 - but you get the moog sound from the matriarch via the matriarch filter that I prefer over the sub 37's filter.
Yea that multi drive is nice. The filter is ok, but honestly I have the uad filter that’s pretty spot on the subsequent 37 so I don’t miss that. Matriarch is nice, my only gripe with those are if I’m not gonna have patch memory I might as well buy an old synth, so I love my rogue for the Moog sound and looking at a Sh-02 or 09. I rather go vintage
I have the Pro 3 SE on the way here. It has the flip up control panel, so I don't think the display location will be a problem for me. Although I admit, I do like the display placement on the Cobalt and Argon synths. I can't wait to play with that tuned feedback.. It seems like I can use it as a fourth oscillator, have it play harmonics like a Subharmonicon. The mad patching in this is dope. I thought the MatrixBrute and PolyBurte were cool, but they are nothing compared to how intuitive the Pro 3 is. You can repatch things quickly while playing live, nothing to look up, no grid to try and read while playing.
yea you are right. I would definitely bring the pro 3 on stage and never the other two....I may still get a matrixbrute but im glad i grabbed the pro 3 first!
I love this synth. The screen down would mean you are covering the screen more if using things higher up, my only gripe is the knobs are stuff, but that is good for being more exact and not accidentally turning them. I think it is the best analog monosynth ever.
Great breakdown. Thanks!
Nice man PRO 3 is the Sweetest. Sending drums through its filter is so good..
Nice video bruh.. have you compared this to the Take 5? Probably the main similarities are the size and company, but curious to know if they overlap each other etc too.
I’ve had my eye on this as my first mono. It looks very versatile and almost limitless. I have a Rev2 and love the workflow. Great review 👍👍
Good choice! Im going the other direction, just ordered a Rev 2!
i realize Im pretty off topic but do anybody know a good website to watch newly released tv shows online?
@Ulises Ronald i watch on flixzone. You can find it on google :)
@Randall Sam yup, been watching on FlixZone for since april myself =)
@Randall Sam Thank you, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I really appreciate it !
Love the review. Honest
🙏
Cool! Thank you!
Can you stack different sounds with the sequencer?
I have the take 5 from sequential and im thinking to trade it with a pro 3 ...
Do you think its a good idea?
Nice review! Thanks 🙏
I’m considering selling my Subsequent 37 for a Pro 3.
I’ll mainly be using it for bass and leads (I make techno / house) just wondering if you this that’s a good / bad idea based on your experience with both?
All the demos I can find of the pro 3 never go into the bass territory much. It’s hard to know if I’ll be giving something up by selling the moog!
Thanks again and hope you’re doing ok in these pandemic times.
Have both. Never sell the Moog. The Pro 3 cannot replace it.
@@austinstyles6393 Sold it this morning (before seeing this comment). I 100% agree with you, the 37 is amazing. I'm making a decided effort to try some less over-used sounds. I guess this is an experiment to see if it comes off convincing or just sounds cheesy. Time will tell :) Thanks for your reply!
@@benjaminalfred4383 Experimenting is good. I bought and sold a ton gear and, sometimes you need to try out some new stuff. You will enjoy the Pro 3 very much, but it can’t touch the Moog Sub in the bass department. A Moog can’t be beat at that. Leads, Fx, other synth sounds are up for grabs.
No problem, thanks for checking it out. It’s really on the amount of versatility you want. I wanted more than just bass. The Moog is great at bass but all of the modulation options on the pro 3 runs circles around it. If they made a rack version of the subsequent 37 would I buy it again? Yes...but the pro 3 is my jack if all trades right now...and honestly for me personally it worked out phenomenally well...I sold my subsequent and basically traded up to a Juno 106..through buying two other synths and selling them...so for me it was 100% a win
@@VolcanoBeats glad to hear it! thanks!
Man, I’m thinking of selling my nord lead 4R and slim phatty to get this one...but not sure if it’s worth it, though I had it on my eye since it came out. Arrrggghhhh not sure what to do!
ion know about both, you should be able to trade that Nord alone and get one....a used one for sure.... it's a great synth, I've honestly never had a Nord so I couldn't advise you there.....but I've had a slim phatty...pro 3 runs circles around it....hope that helps!
Don’t get rid of the Nord, sell the Phatty and save up for the rest.
The Pro 3 does sound like something that I could use, although I have a Korg Prologue that has the 2 VCO's and a digital oscillator as well although it doesn't have the modulation options of the Pro 3. The Sub37 and the Prologue MIDI together and then using the Sub37 modulation on the Prologue sounds is interesting though so that could come close to the Pro 3 if I really wanted to go there but that's not really my style. I like the Pro 3's sound though so maybe...
Do you run the Prologue through the Sub 37. The Sub has Ext in right??? Please yes and then transpose the Sub 37 down by about -6 semitones
@@smartwerker The Sub37 does have an external in although I've never used it. I just put the Prologue on the Sub37 MIDI channel and the Sub37 modulation goes to the Prologue.
Love this synth . Thanx for this video. Unfortunately I had to return mines cause it Randomly stop working . Have u had any issues at all cause I plan on buying it again
no prob, thanks for checking it out. I haven’t had any major flaw, just quirky usb not being recognized sometimes. Other than that it’s been great.
Subscribed. Great review.
Thanks for the sub! appreciate it!
It seems everyone is comparing this to the moog sub37, what do you think is better? Pro3 or sub37
honestly I think its more what you are looking for. Straight bass, I think the Sub37 is still better. Nothing beats that moog filter and multidrive. For more sound design purposes and more versatility, the Pro 3 is better.
@@VolcanoBeats which synth would be good for some psychedelic space rock style music
@@TheNerdyMusician I wood say the pro 3 because of the effects and 3rd digital osc
@@VolcanoBeats cool thanks for the info, I actually just got my first synth a few weeks ago i got the korg ms20 i like it alot but I already want to get another one soon, lol I'm either gonna the pro 30 or moog sub37 still undecided
@@VolcanoBeats Exactly, and I'm launching my channel officially on Sept 1st. My first video will show how acquiring the Moog sound but getting the synth you really desire can be achieve with thoughtful planning
Fire beat! I’m trying decide between this and the matrix brute
Thanks! Wow that’s a hard decision there. They both are phenomenal synths. I was kind of in the same boat. I chose the pro 3 because of the 3rd digital osc, 4th envelope and and 2nd midi out. Things that just worked better for me. It’s the ultimate midi controller as well as synth
Useless crap. Returned it for a matrixbrute couldnt be more happy. All kinds of bleeps and blops and that internal clock out of sync 70% of the time. Some said it must be a buggy unit i got thats all. But having own a pro2 . It blows it away.
Just subscribed great review
