Re: Hydrasynth 49 key and Deluxe

the elephant in the room of course is that the HS isnt multi-timbral such is the style of the time Im afraid :) ;) :frown: The Deluxe is 2-part multitimbral. The original Hydrasynth isn't multitimbral on paper but can use paraphony to simulate 2-part multitimbrality as described here . To me it's ...

which bits in particular dont you like ? bare in mind that its not a finnished work but a start point, which was achieved in < a minute, as opposed to maybe an hour inputting the midi notes, applying lyrics, tweaking things around and adding in the performance attributes. A definite bonus, even if ...

Re: The Behringer Keyboards 'n' Stuff Thread #3

Their "Brains" was similar I think. Some of that stuff is also in the Arturia microfreak and many others. If the front panel colour scheme is the only issue you have regards a purchase... the front panel looks easily removable, a quick run over with a linisher for a "brushed metal look" or followed ...

Re: Behringer VCS3

theres no real mention of the VCS in the roundup video I just posted in the Berhibger thread. "first seen in 2017" !! Knobwise, it would probably be cheap and easy to get similar looking replacement knobs that appeal to your taste. There was a previous picture of synths on shelving in a factory with ...

Hydrasynth [1] .... can you use it without the keyboard controlling it? Ive seen youtubes of the Hydrasynth doing regenerative music . Ive not tried it myself.

Re: The PS3300 has landed!

Ive just watched some utubes like Alex Ball's, which makes sense of it all.

The note tuning must have been an outlandish thing in analogue times - the Korg Prophecy was v.popular in the middle east in its day, as it had a selection of tunings.
