Mmmm, it's Friday, and I have a couple of tracks to finish up, but I just fancy a little inspiration booster.
I have the worlds test memory, so I cant recall products names, and when I do a Google search for synths it's so tedious
Maybe something a bit simple and cheesey, with ready to go 'big' epic plucks / leads which I can wank over
Quick my darlings - I wanna buy now
NO DONGLE / I LOK - I just like buying and playing |

Rob Papen Predator is on sale for $79.
Synthmaster is a pretty powerful synth for $99.
Check www.jrrshop.com or audiodeluxe for discounts. |

Thanks I looked at the sugeestions but nothing grabbed me yet
I was listening to HIVE and Tone 2s brand new synth, but mehhh |

Sylenth still does 'that' thing better than Hive, and I think all the Tone 2 stuff sounds a little too special sauce.
You got Serum and Spire? |

I agree, but I find myself using Hive more and more with each new song/idea. I think a lot of that has to do with the interface, where I really prefer the layout/look of Hive.

Ditto. I'll keep Gladiator around for its versatility (and heavy use in older projects), but I sold off my other Tone2 synths and don't plan on buying more of them until they come up with something that doesn't sound so...Tone2, I guess. |

No divorce lol :D
Bought a Mercedes E Class Coupe and needed some funds for 20" wheels, Brabus tuning and some car detailing stuff (polish machine, extractor, waxes, shampoos etc.)
So a new money pit :D
But also, most of the synths mentioned above didn't get used beyond some noodling and doing firmware updates. It was too much. Did not sell any of my compressors or EQs just the synth stuff. And still got plenty left to play around with.
I really want to commit to the RYTM especially after the new update. |
