Hi Woody, great to see you enjoying yourself with this gear. The Arturia sounds remarkably good via RUclips but I still find that in the studio VST synths don’t have the detail of analogs and often my Virus TI2. I sincerely wish this wasn’t the case. I appreciate it would be extra work but would you be able to post some downloads of the raw audio on Dropbox or something similar. The point where I feel I can ditch the hardware will be completely liberating. Xx
Download Arturia demo versions of the VSTs and try for yourself. Keep in mind that with any VST working on a computer you always hit the limit of 0 dB so you have to move your faders down to leave more headroom in your DAW and then work with a good output amplifier to get the same dynamic range as with a hardware synth.
Now that you've had a chance to play with it, how do you think it stacks up against the full Arturia collection with a controller keyboard? I kinda like the idea of being able to play around with the sounds "on the fly" in a hardware instrument but not sure I can justify the cost. Or the space, lol.
there is a astrolab mini coming out (leaked) so that will be cheaper and smaller it would seem! i didn't particularly enjoy fiddling around with v-collection, so for me, a preset flipper, i prefer the astro, but for people into sound design, well at least creating your own presets, the astro is useless.
@@WoodyPianoShack With the Arturia stuff, I would probably be most inclined to use the presets rather than deep diving into any heavy sound design, so that wouldn't be too much of a problem. I'm guessing that there's some tweakability (filter, etc) using the front panel knobs? It's difficult to tell whether I'm loving this because of the sounds themselves or what you're dong with them! Some nice playing again 🙂
he had white synths, and music still to score - also a shirt made of satin, and some Grado headphones, made in New York.
oooh, what a lucky man he was
genius :D
Looks like you are having fun very nice sounds great 🎉
Sounds very good and well played by you Woody! Great performance as usual...
much appreciated, cheers
Lovely. I will always love a video that starts with DITP😊
That piano-belltree is very cool. Let's see if I could implement it as well.
Awesome ! Looking well mate !
Excellent combinations, Woody! - it was an interesting exercise putting the Arturia Astrolab and the Roland TR-86 drum machine together.
Very creative Woody. Still not convinced about the Arturia, but I am convinced of your creative abilities.
very kind of you to say so! breaking news today, a leak that astrolab mini incoming!

the youtube audio is a very good representation, i cannot hear the difference between the hardware and the upload!

sounds great; good combo.
I have the AstroLab, and AIRA system with original TR-8 (not the S)
Those pads at around 2.36 sound well luscious...

Nice 😊
Yeah, I've just started doing a similar thing with a Perkons and a CK88. When I use the CK88's filter and envelope, I get frogmented piano...
Beautiful :) The piano with the wind chimes and stuff in the background, is that from the analog Lab collection? It's very dreamy :)
I freaking hate this video! Now I want to buy them both badly.
haha, too bad, sorry! remember to separate "want" and "need"!
@@WoodyPianoShack I did not know that I "need" one until this video.
Ah, all your videos are too short, Woody.
At 1ke i would have bought it...but not at 1.6ke.
The price is inappropriate
Could barely hear TR-8S
strange, it is mixed at exactly the same loudness as the keys!
@@WoodyPianoShack I listened to it again with headphones and it is better, I can hear the drums a little.
