You could also have with you when you go shopping groceries. Thats a huge plus. And put it a bookshelf among some other books. Nobody would notice it´s a synth.
Hi. Appreciate your take on this synth. Out of curiosity, if you were to already own another analog polysynth (a DSI Prophet 08, in my case), would you see this as a worthy addition or redundant? If so, what would be the outstanding reasons to have it compared to other relative poly gear? Thanks!
Hi, that depends a lot on what you do with your synths. Although I didn't mention it, in my work as a musician, portability has a premium. I would say also that the Nymphes, although quite clearly referencing classic synths in its design (the Juno especially), I think it will emerge as having something quite different to offer. Dreadbox are a very very clever firm. Obviously, it's not a monster workhorse like the Prophet O8, and is considerably more compact. For a flexible, very portable 6 voice polysynth, at an extremely reasonable price, it has no competition at the moment. Perhaps the best argument, if you don't already have a Dreadbox synth, is entry into the marvellous, charismatic world of the Greek company. Thanks for the comment!
I think it's one of the best sounding Synths I've heard. It has a character that's it's own. Feed it though a good reverb and it's a thing of wonder
ABsolutely.

A good power bank wound drive a sequencer, a usb speaker and the synth: music in the supermarket aisles!
Bookshelf storage is a boon to any synth!

It’s all in there under your fingers is how we ended up with DX7
Perhaps, but the Nymphes has far more immediate accessibility.
I mean, great insights, but tell me more about your pockets! We want pockets!
The synth will fit into most modern pockets.
You also need cables, keyboard some mixer or soundcard. And speakers, so why put it in your pocket?. Dont you have a bag or case or something??.
It’s more a question of whether you can put it in your pocket rather than whether you should. And there’s room for cable ;-)
Also if it rains it´s not good at all!!
I’ve never found that to be a problem.
What feedback do you get from looking at piano or a bass tuba?. Or a harmonica or a banjo?.
I’m afraid I’ve never got feedback from - looking - at anything.
More talking please!
Ok, but what about?
