I have the Jp8080 and I'm kinda bored of it and i want an affordable follow up which would be the SH 32 but i want something newer which would be the SH-201



Another affordable synth rack that i'm getting would be the Korg Radius which has good routing capabilities and a lot of waveforms to choose from.



What do you guys think?

Forget that trash and learn reaktor or some other soft synth?

i liked the sound of the roland jp8080 even its worse presets sound good, convinced me enough to get more


i tried using the audio outs of the TI into the motu ultra lites ins and it still sounded the same as usb audio so I'm selling that

Anyone with a TI would agree. There is no difference in sound quality, i can post samples if you want

Waldorf pulse, Blofeld nord2, korg ms2000. All cheap and somewhat classic in terms of new generation synths. those synths you posted are not worth it. They are eye candy that offer nothing older cheaper and better synths won't do better.

personally think you are wasting your time but eh.

i'm not familiar with that synth? what can that beast do?

you could probably get laid with it

more powerful than the virus in my opinion. The synth like all waldorf synths has awful presets so i wouldn't go by the demos posted anywhere. I've owned at one time or another 20 or so synths so when I suggest these, it is an informed decision based on price sound and functionality. The blofeld is quite underrated. The fact that you can import your own waves and the mod capabilities are about as vast as a synth comes. But it only has 1 output. But honestly, they cost like 500$. You will not find a synth at that price range or even twice that price that comes close in versatility.

and didn't I fucking say the jp 8080 is a 3 trick poney ? apology accepted.

Just did some research on the BLO, ima get that too, great price with good quality. Thanks dude. Nordrack is too expensive. Korgms rather go with radius cuz its newer

hardware synths kinda stopped getting better after 2000. The korg radias is steaming pile of shit. The blofeld and Virus will make it redundant. The nordrack is like 600$. Just get the original 2. Not the remake. Honestly ., you are going to regret most of your purchases and sell everything except for the classics so don't waste your time. If you have money to burn, spend it on your interface chain and room.

I mean unless you are getting a synth that has a sound say a moog or similar synth, you need to look at the specs and forget anything with only 2 ossilators. The radias has something like 2 osc, 2 lfos, 4 filter types or something like that. And the radias sounds like software or worse. It lacks the charm and weird sound that made the ms2000 interesting.
