    Nice vid. I buy, play and own synths since 1975. I own and have owned true exotics like PPG2.3, Matrix 12, Chroma Rhodes and Polaris, OBX, OB8, Prophet 5, VS, and many many more. But honestly? The Summit is one of the best sounding synths I have ever owned. It sometimes sound more analog than real analog synths !!!

      Excellent testement to the summit, especially since you have magnificent Synths. After lengthy research the Summit was a no brainier, it can achieve almost anything.

    I own a lot of hardware but i must admit that the Summit has the best sounding effects ive ever used on hardware synthesizers.
    Especially the Reverbs and delays.
    Ive started running all of my my vintage gear through the summits effects.
    The results are incredible.
    That and the synthesizer itself has added a whole other new dimension to my other hardware.

      was teh same with Novation the Supernova II, although at times the reverb could be a bit noisy. But the hours of fun I had just tweaking the filter and the delay on the arpeggiator was amazing

    Wonderful demo!
    I've had mine since December of 2019. I pre-ordered it in June when the price was $1,999 before they adjusted it to $2,199. I had to have it replaced twice by May 2020. First for the early encoder issue, then for the aftertouch problem.
    I love this instrument. I also thoroughly recommend Luke Neptune's patches. They're marvelous! He can make this sound very Juno-like!
    Keep up the great work and thanks for letting people know what an extraordinary instrument this is. It was Chris Huggett's last, and with the last firmware, I believe it's worthy of his legacy.

    My only problem with the Peak and the Summit is that without the reverb on, there are literally no reviews on youtube. I think for a reason. With all the built-in effects they sound marvellous. But not in plain, raw. Btw you played this synth beautifully, I salute you Sir!

    • @sandrosfregola5896
      @sandrosfregola5896 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I own a Peak since its introduction in 2017. The raw sound is excellent. All synths sound kind of "flat" without at least some ambience added, due to the way the sound is produced. I'm into synths since the late '70 and I can tell that IMHO the Peak/Summit is the most interesting instrument in many, many years.

      Don’t agree. The oscillators and filters on the Summit are absolutely top notch and sound great in the raw. Sure, the effects are also top notch and so of course enhance the sound further as with any synth. The only major issue with this keyboard is it’s lack of multitimbrality, which means the oodles of polyphony can’t be fully utilized for live sequenced use.

    Great demo of a criminally underrated and underappreciated synth; one of the VERY few with actually good onboard effects. Depending on priorities to me Polybrute is the only other similarly priced & featured modern analog(-ish) synth I would consider. Only 6 voices, inferior effects, and no dedicated 2nd layer out (BOO), but better interface/workflow IMHO and layer morph is really something else. That would be a tough choice (especially after this video) were I not such a slave to much simpler old school analog designs...

      Hey Gregorio, das kommt ganz darauf an welche Musik du machen willst.. auch darauf ob live- oder Studio.

Der Summit ist einfach eine Klasse für sich.. wenn man ihn spielt will man nicht mehr aufhören... auch die Tastatur ist perfekt für einen Synth... Aftertouch sehr gelungen in meinen Augen und sensationell klingende Effekte.. das ist nicht bei allen Synths so.. Also, man kann diese Synthesizer nicht wirklich miteinander vergleich. Sie sind zu unterschiedlich. Ein Vergleich zwischen Summit und DSI Rev2 wäre da angebrachter... vielleicht mache ich mal ein Video dazu... 🙂
