Mid-tier poly synths for art-rock? - SynthWizard - 04-22-2022 Mid-tier poly synths for art-rock? <!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Kia ora all,</p> <p>Pretty straightforward question here: I'm looking for recommendations for poly synths, for an art-rock project (think: the National, Swans, Bad Seeds). I was super familiar with the synth landscape 4-5 years ago, but stuff's changed and I'm not up to date anymore.</p> <p>Right now I'm using a Novation Peak. Love the sound, but it's more powerful than I need, and carrying a desktop unit + keyboard to rehearsals is profoundly annoying.</p> <p>Previously I had a Prophet Rev 2 - which I absolutely loved, but sometimes found a bit bright & 80s for the darker, more textural stuff we're doing.</p> <p>I'm looking for something around the same price (or a little lower) than the Peak, but with a built-in full-sized keyboard. I care more about workflow and ergonomics than having a million features, definitely don't need more than 8 voices, and am agnostic on digital v analog.</p> <p>Right now I'm eyeballing the Sequential Take 5, but I'd love some suggestions on synths to research & play.</p> <p>Cheers,</p> <p>-W</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/willrjmarshall"> /u/willrjmarshall </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/u8zklr/midtier_poly_synths_for_artrock/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/u8zklr/midtier_poly_synths_for_artrock/">[comments]</a></span> |
