I'd like to talk about analogue

I haz been looking me at some little synths. I feel some collection to happen.
I'm not talking about the old stuff or the bigger ones, but all the cool little ones.
So far :-
Oberheim SEM (liking this a lot)
Arturia Minibrute (bit meh on the sound so far though)
Doepfer Dark Energy
Tetra
Waldorf Pulse 2
Mono Evolver
Are there any other cool little knob tweakers that I might not know about yet?
And don't talk to me about the A-100 stuff. That is a scratch I shall itch next year. |

its not a synth but Sherman filterbank is really cool and very analogue. Definitely a knob tweaker too :)
The waldorf pulse 1 is a dirty little beast imo not tried the new version |

That looks pretty good. Cheap too!

Actually the filterbank is a pretty good shout, although a couple of the little synths I've been looking at can process external audio so I'm not sure if i'd be doubling up.
The Pulse 2 should be pretty good though, although I have no idea why they insist on using that multi function UI. Gah! |

Neither of those are floating my boat at the moment.
I've just found out about the Studio Electronics Boomstar, which comes in 4 filter flavours.
I'm seriously looking forward to hearing the SEM version. |

i bought a few analogue things when i was trying to make DnB - for bass and bass processing. The Sherman was definitely the most "analogue" sounding of them all! its noisy, unpredictable and sometimes it even sounds like a reverb. Mostly good for distortion.
Studio electronics stuff looks blinding, bit pricey though but id love to try some of that stuff one day |

Their UK distributor is Studio Xchange up in North London, so I think once they have the Boomstar in stock I'll go and have a play.

I've got to mini beasts.
The kick lancet which is ok but tbh I need some good outboard pre-amp to record it through as I don't get great results using my RME interface. It also doesn't do much.
Secondly I have the rack version of Leipzig by Analogoue Solutions, which is a classic monosynth.
Here is a link to the one with build in sequencer;

It's fat and fun, but I'd say overall a bit dissapointing. Wish I'd gone for something with more sonic routing possibility.
Again I could use a decnet pre or something to record it through.
A producer I recently met, actually uses ty little bits of circuitry from part of an old camcorder as his preamp, and it's actually really effective. I have old bits of amplifiers and so on so I might try this - I originaly started in electronic music by circuit bending anyway so it would be fun. |

I do think there's some secret sauce in connecting these things together, and ultimately having more than one flavour to play with Rich.
I don't think i'll ever be a fan of the full modular world as it just seems like a faff to me, but some kind of interconnection would be cool. |
