Any known TA producers use this instrument? How do you use it and what kind of processing do you use? Any examples?
Strengths vs. weaknesses?
I've noticed it's a great synth but it has some weird phasing issues. It's virtually impossible to use on basslines in my opinion. Unless you bounce the recording, because many times it will start off on either phase and the sound is never consistent on really low sounds. Some advice on how to get rid of that phase would be nice, too. |

| It sounds really nice except for that phasing issue :/ |

| The original still used vco's so the phasing is nothing new. Kinda sucks that they dont give you thechoice considering how pointless their free running ossilators are if they remain static once played. Sampling a series of takes is how people use these old analog synths. |

The Andromeda I had also was VCO and the phasing wasn't nearly as bad as the Jupiter 8v. Especially with square waves, the Arturia crap kinda misses the mark.
And when I had a Moog Voyager for a couple months, there was literally 0 phasing. That was an amazing instrument.... |

| I find all their stuff annoying in that they try too hard when the result is pointless. Their digital vco's dont change once you hit a key so you just get a new timbre each time that sounds artificial as I believe it is totally random unlike a real vco |

Who's? The Alesis or the Moog? I've definitely heard what you are talking about, though. I believe the Alesis is a Digital VCO. |

Right, but I believe the VCOs where digitally controlled in some way. Maybe not... |

| Nope. That would be a dco like the 106. |

| This is why lots of people are migrating to Sylenth :D |

| I'm really not a fan of the Arturia stuff. The Minimoog is OK, but I still don't go to it a lot. |

| It would be nice to have a feature to turn off whatever causes the phasing, but for leads and pads I can't think of anything I'd rather use. Sylenth always just sounds digital and crappy to me, but I haven't put in the hours to learn it as well as I could. Not really a huge fan of the other Arturia stuff, Minimonsta is cool but I don't find myself using it very much. I would like to know what everyone's favorite classic analogue emulations are. |
