@@aquaticborealis4877 It is indeed, thanks for watching.

Very much her style, right? I learned the MUSE RUNNER patch was programmed by Manny Martinez though.

@ I signed up for the Muse and I just came in yesterday Sweetwater, but I had to cancel it. Didn’t realize it was only a six month promotion no interest. I need a better promotion than that.

@ Have you checked the prices in Perfect Circuit (USA) and Thomann (EU)?

@ I have a Sweetwater credit card. I like to wait for no interest promotions. From what I was told moog isn’t doing promotions at the moment as they’re under new ownership and management. Undergoing a bit of a ruff start. Once they get caught up they’ll start moving more products out.

You’re absolutely right, I hadn’t noticed that. Thanks a lot for pointing it out.

It just sounds so good. I just dislike how easy it self resonates even under low feedback values (the input knob seems to affect that, strangely). I’ve mostly seen the SDD along guitars, so I plan on using it with synths only.

@@NGC0Music Are you talking about the SDD pedal?

@@kierenmoore3236 yes

@@NGC0Music Ah, OK … It’s definitely different to the og rack delay.

Thanks a lot Ray ❤

Thanks for watching

It was just released, so it will probably get cheaper later on.

🤘

Thanks Bjorn

The Novation Peak is a great synth as well.

Thanks for watching Sandy. The Blooper works well as a weird looper with a lofi vibe, or as a simple traditional looper indeed.

Thanks for watching.

Being very honest, I think the Matriarch is a more suitable synth for bass, I like the bass response on it more. I had the Grandmother too, and the bass there is even stronger, but it’s a bit too much for me. The Matriarch has more sweet spots, and really nice sweet spots.

Thank you. If it’s your dream synth I’m sure you’ll have one (or a better one) eventually

Not my dream synth but definitely an amazing machine.

@@nolake my bad, I read someone else’s comment and replied accidentally to you. Thanks for watching ❤️

Hi, thank you for watching. I’m not in love with the bass on the Muse. With enough time and tweaking, it can do any bass you want, but it takes more time to find the sweet spots, and they are not as nice sounding as what I hear from the Matriarch for example. Pads, brasses, plucks and keys all sound gorgeous on the Muse, Bass? Not much of my cup of tea, for that I keep my Matriarch

Thank You!

Thank you

Thanks a lot

@@sauermusicDE Thanks a lot. The release was not so long, it was mostly the diffuse delay. It can work as a reverb like you heard, very interesting, although I’d have preferred a classic analog stereo delay like the Matriarch has.

@@Tubeinnit Hahah we do. But there’s just too much good stuff back there.

when I'm 90! lol

Are piano geeks going to progress beyond the 1780’s?

@@BullyMaguire4ever lol

@@NGC0Music sounds great! 😁

@@halcyo That’s a fair point, in the end we all have “that feeling” with different synths. For example, I can’t see anything attractive on the Prophet5/10, but some folks would die for it. It’s all about personal taste. Thanks for watching the video and for the nice words ❤️

I actually think it sounds great. But, it isn't doing anything most other quality polys can't. Also, no MPE or polyAT at this price? Pass.

You're not wrong...i returned mine a week later, it was sort of polite and bland. No excitement or grandeur or spark, as if it was designed by an engineer and not a musician

I have one and the sweet spots have not been as easily discovered as the UDO Super 6 I sold to get it. I think the Moog ladder is a little better tuned for a mono synth. That said, it’s starting to click for me and the UI is really, really excellent. I’ve had a few “holy shit” moments while sound designing in the last couple days. Its gonna be exactly the right thing for some folks.

​@@matthewallthetime218 weirdly we replaced ours with a UDO Super Gemini! Very happy with that thing

@@GeorgeDimopoulos Thanks for watching George

@@RayyMusik So we agree 😄

No reason for jealousy. I often layer the Muse and the OB-X8 - growling, fundamental 24db ladder LPFs combined with 12db BPFs or HPFs. What a wall of sound! They are a perfect couple.

@@danthreepwood2760 😂 I’m yet to try the X8, looks like an amazing synth.

@@RayyMusik My OB-8 loves young supermodels, so may have to sell a couple basses and buy a Muse for the old Oberheim.

@@LDJITA If a patch makes you think of Blade Runner, it cannot sound bad, right? It’s almost like cheating.

Thanks a lot and good luck with the song you’re working on. And about the ARP, yes

Gaia 2 is not analogue. It's a virtual analogue/wavetable digital synth.. a fork of the Zen Core engine code. It sounds very harsh and unanalogue to me. Maybe look at something like the Korg Minilogue XD in a similar price bracket

Thank you. 569euros is even way better to me than the 735 of the Gaia 2. Yeah the Gaia 2 is not a complete analogue, I knew that a bit, as said I'm a layman in this area. I think it's very useful to me that you say the Gaia 2 sounds too harsh and unanalogue. That's a no go to me. A musix teacher adviced the Gaia 2 to me, but he wasn't that much into the synths so here I go trying to do some decent research. Thanks.

Agree with ​​⁠@@Wagoo. Depends how many voices you need, though - Minilogues only have 4.

​@@kierenmoore3236Okay, thank you. Well, I don't really know. How many voices (whatever that is, sorry ..) does a starter need to have? I think I will be happy (enough for now) with the Korg Minilogue XD. Atm, I want to search and shape tones and I do have to find a suitable voice. Is it possible for you to say what I need to buy in order to record the sounds so that I can capture it with the highest quality? Just curious to know, also in terms of budgeting.

@@erikbroker4127 dont listen to people calling a synthesizer harsh on which they never made their own patches - you can totally make beautiful sounds with a digital synth but usually a digital synth with wavetables has presets that may sound harsh - thats why a lot of people get mislead Most of the commercial music in the last 3 decades were made with digital synthesizers

There’s a good comparison video with a Matriarch. Nothing alike, really.

Thanks again for being around

It can get pretty nasty though haha. Both in regards of tuning stability and distortion.

Let's not forget that those dinosaurs changed their sound after decades. The MUSE is a future dinosaur but now it's still in mint condition. 😂

@@nichttuntun3364 hahahaha, anyway I still love a lot my 80s roland gear

@@morphicresonancechannel604I also love the 80s‘ Roland synths, particularly the mean JP-6. But don‘t underestimate the Muse! You can modulate virtually everything with noise; along with the filter overload you can get a lot of dirt out of the Muse!

@@morphicresonancechannel604 I got the Juno 106 and love it too. I got 6 new voice chips for it but need someone who can build them in. Hard to find someone who's still in synthesizer repairs.

@@jon_gee thanks a lot Jon, that’s very nice of you. ❤️

Fully agree. They complement each other very well. Sometimes I wish they had made a poly synth closer to the Matriarch. Or rather having a 8-voice or 16- voice paraphonic synth though.

@@NGC0Music I think the Matriarch with 8 voices would be too strong, it would kill all tracks in a mix. 😁

Thanks for watching. The reverbs are from the OB-6.

Wow I didnt know the reverb can sound so good.

Thanks for watching

You here! Thanks for checking it out. The vocals are the original 2 steps down. I really like the “vaporwave” vibes when pitched extremely low (maybe 4 or 5 steps). I will post a full version

Thanks my friend

Thanks for watching

That’s actually a great plan. You’ll have lots of fun with the Rev2 16 as well, it’s an amazing synth, so hopefully you won’t miss the Muse that much.

Thank you ❤️

Thank You ❤️

Thank you Jon <3

@@BullyMaguire4ever i actually did, at least for pads, which is 99% of what I use poly synths for.

They sound very different. However, the OB-6 is fantastic for pads as well.

Congrats! The advantage of the PB12 (besides the most obvious ones) is the number of presets, I’d surely get lost on that nice keybed and zillions of presets

@@NGC0Music thanks man, plenty space but probably still run out lol! Keybed is superb, didn’t think I would love it as much as I would, tongue is on the floor 🤘

Thank you, I hope you will get it soon! Talking about polysynths, I have owned a Prophet12, Prophet6, OB-6, Yamaha SK30, Hydrasynth, Minifreak, Matriarch, Polymoog, Polybrute and Osmose, and I can say the Muse gave me the sweetest Pads. The Matriarch is paraphonic, but I mentioned it because I love the sound of that thing in 4-voice paraphonic mode, if it had 8 voices, I’d probably not have gotten the Muse. If money was a problem for me and I had to choose the cheapest option, I’d keep the Hydrasynth explorer only.

@@NGC0Music I sold my Matriarch 😳 To fund a Muse 😏 Hopefully I made the right decision

@@aquaticborealis4877You can do way more with the Muse.

Which 8 ‘fully analog’ [👀 don’t let Espen see this, lol] polys do you own? Just wondering what you’re comparing the Muse alongside. Cheers!

We live in great times for synthesizers.

@@kierenmoore3236 Yep, I got scammed because they have digital LFOs and envelopes. 😁 I mean: analog oscillators and filters, as in: P5, P6, Rev 2, OB-X8, OB-6, PB6, e7, Muse. What I don‘t want to read now: “But the Rev 2 has DCOs“! I‘m Rayy, and Espen is not.

@@RayyMusik Indeed, you have! 😉. lol, seems we have the same taste in synths and sense of humour. I love the REV2 - mostly because I bothered to learn it well … seems so many of them get flipped by people who don’t … ?!! Those are all really great synths, imho … e7 is an interesting/less usual choice; how are you liking it? What dj you use it for, mainly? Cheers!

@@kierenmoore3236 I bought the e7 in 2023 because I wanted a ladder filter poly synth (played a Memorymoog in the 80s) and don‘t like the harsh sounding Trigon that much. The basic sound of the e7 is fantastic; as someone put it: “The most vintage sounding poly synth these days“. It sounds more like a Memorymoog than the Muse does! However, it lacks many mod options I‘m used to from other synths. Another plus is the additional voice compared to the usual 6-voice synths. It is 4-part multitimbral, but I never use this. As a pad addict, I wanted to use it for - guess what. But here its greatest flaw kicks in: it does not have any kind of HPF. Of course you can turn up the resonance, but then it starts screaming beyond 25%. The greatest feat of the Moog designers is that final HPF at the very end of the Muse’s signal chain! Now, having the Muse, I wouldn‘t buy the e7 again.
