That’s a good response. I understand that completely.

I own both Logic and FL Studios and the choices of different synths I have, I can’t keep up with. Logic also has a good selection of older synths in the line up.

That’s a good selection of synthesis styles..... but those interfaces, ugh.

I have used Logic in the past and it works very well. My Korg keyboard controller I find is great with it, even in Reaper, really anything Korg you know it's going to be fuckin awesome, congrats on your purchases.

Of course I could turn around and say the same about guitar sounds, especially with electrics. Unless you are using an actual tube amp all electric guitar sounds are pretty much modeled sounds by a chip..
This one is analog. Clone of a vintage circuit.
The digital parts deal with midi, sequencing and key tracking ... not the sound generation.
It doesn’t have memory for the sounds... just the sequencer. So the sounds are manipulated on the fly. Honestly it’s a bit more .... intimate.

These days software /what’s in your daw probably does sound ‘better’
I just prefer working this way.

It was on sale because it was possibly the floor demo.

So not .... so fresh.

Hey man. If it floats your boat, who cares about its history.

I've ordered the NTS-1 and we'll see what that's like. If I feel the need for summat more, I'll likely take another good look at the Minilogue. I'm still intending to get a new PC very soon, so I may need to save up for a bit anyway.

I like my SE-02 a lot as well. Not poly though, but great fun.

I love the distortion/filter on my monologue. It’s ‘that’ tone.... perfect. The ML doesn’t do everything, but I live everything that it does.
The mini XD these days I feel is the best Allrounder/ bang for the buck.

I guy I jam with has an se02. It sounds absolutely massive. Blade runner/vangelis massive.

Download new ones.

Couldn't find the right stems. Is that the right term?

Having said that, since I started picking up hardware I've pretty much stopped trying to make music altogether and just dick around with a pair of headphones plugged into a synth most of the time, trying to recreate what I just did that made it sound awesome for a moment about 2 minutes ago, 3 minutes ago, 4 minutes ago, what was I trying to do again?

Never even connected all the crap together yet.

Is it a warning? I don't know any more.

Should work. I’m not familiar with Renoise ( I assume that’s what you’re using?)

Even with the module XD you’d be able to control it over USB from the DAW.

Cool! Cheers man!
