    For me as an FM fanatic. This is the dream machine I have waited decades for. Well done KORG. Yamaha should have done this. But I'm glad you did.

    • @XNBeatsMusic

      Yeah, it is a great instrument. The guys at KORG really did a great job. KORG usually makes good sounding instruments, then problem is build quality as always.

      I don't care about build quality. The only thing that matters is the SOUND. These days people get hung up on the wrong things.
      Not enough effects. Or keys are too small. Not enough onboard memory. It's priced £100 too high. Some nonsense. The only thing that matters is the raw sound and versatility of the instrument. And how it effects the listener.
      Instruments like the Yamaha REFACE CS. Korg Microsampler. And now the Korg opsix.
      Are sonically AMAZING. Any technical shortcomings can he forgiven. As soon as you hear what they can do sonically.

      Yes Opsix is endless créative instrument. Regarding Yamaha well they do better with MODX and Montage in term of complexity (8 operators ) and sound with 128 polyphonie and it sound really much better but the interface if not that simple even if Superknob and SmartMorph are great modern tools

    You say, 'modern synthesizers are super quiet' and at the same time the USB has a ground loop. LOL 😆 Anyway, thanks for the great tutorial, I think you've did the best tutorial for OPSIX sequencer. Keep it up man!

      @@XNBeatsMusic Yes. But I think there is no such thing as "super quite" in hardware units (at least for now). People in 30 years from now will say that such USB ground loop noise is actually a vintage tone of this era. And they will try to reproduce it with their modern tools :))) That's what I meant :)

    I found this video very helpful and appreciate the time you spent making it. Indeed you deserve every coffee you get bought by grateful followers of your work. I will have more confidence with using the Sequencer, which was thoroughly gone into by you. I was thinking that being able to alter the pitches of notes by micro tones other than just semi tones would give some wonderfully interesting results. I guess the opsix does not have this facility. Does any other synth enable this micro tone adjustments? Certainly would be fun to play with. Muchas gracias.

    again another 15 patches, while i follow this one. This is the most amazing synth I ever had. it's not like the Volca, it's not like the native version, I just took the step because I believed this one is the best bang for the buck, and I'm totally in love with it. i do have to say, I know what to do to make it sound the way I want, that has a lot to do with it. In my opinion, sounds better than the Hydra. to make sounds, synth sounds, and riffs and rhythms and progressions, they say only 16 steps but if you set that on 1/4 or what ever and the n the arp, with motion and virtual patches on top, man, massive. you didn't show it, but you can invert chords on the sequencer. seq util, note invrt full and select the other half, yes :)

      Seems like 40 years after FM-Synthesis was developed, it's still to advanced.
      many judge the Opsix by how equally sounding it loads the dx7 presets.
      alternate waveforms, user algorithms and modes mean nothing to them.

    • @m1nnefr3d
      @m1nnefr3d 2 года назад

      @@hermask815 Yeah, the venerable DX7 is the golden reference (and by no means undeservedly!) But take an opsix and use nothing but its extensive waveform selection beyond the traditional sine in FM operator mode for both carriers and modulators and the KORG will soundwise surpass the Yamaha original by lengths. »Altered FM Synthesizer« is probably one of KORG's most modest understatements, although it technically definitely applies to the opsix. I like this beast 💕

      @@Lordxfx I never understood why a module is more expensive than the KBD version. Isn't supposed to be cheaper to manufacture ? But no. It's seems it's more expensive..... look, Korg, Roland, etc do this all the time, introductory price "expensive", wait a few months and you get it 20% or 30% off. Look at the Gaia 2.

      @@XNBeatsMusic I know. Only one thing comes to mind. The expect to sell more modules. Some bright mind at Korg is making up for economic manifacturing loss of the keyboard versions. They're correcting their own release strategy mistakes over the backs of consumers. They should have included the modules at the launch of the MKI versions. Let us not even talk about the later released and heavily overpriced full keyboard versions. The sad thing is honesty, all three models are overpriced given what they are and how they're designed. (OpSix, ModWave, WaveState). Chips today are more powerfull then ever, and yet you get systems that perform less then those released two decades ago. A shame, a real shame.
