Alesis Andromeda A6: 16-Voice Analog Synth Overview, Part 1
YouTube via gearwire
"Like any good amateur astronomy enthusiast preparing to deliver his / her first talk, Bill Holland got all snazzed up to demo the Alesis Andromeda A6
. This massive analog synth has nearly as many controls as the Andromeda galaxy has habitable planets, i.e., it'll be decades or even centuries before we know for sure.
This first video on the Andromeda covers some of the basic controls you'll find on similar high-end, digitally controlled analog synths. You'll have to wait for subsequent videos to check out the sweet ribbon controller in action.
See more on Gearwire.com."

Oh boy! Gearwire! :D
ReplyDeleteThis one sure starts off with a bang. "One of the 20th century's last outputs." Haha, wow. "16 voices doesn't sound like a lot, but with an analog synth that's huge and will create a huge polyphony". "Digital analog"!
I think my favorite part is when he turns the filter knobs and nothing happens.
I'm starting to wonder if these guys are some sort of elaborate joke. Either way, they never fail to entertain!
:) my only problem with this vid is that no matter what he does or says, you're listening to ONE crappy patch for 10 minutes...
ReplyDeleteGeez, every patch he picked sounded horrible and beyond detuned. I don't think his unit had warmed up or had been autotuned.
ReplyDeleteI just don't know what to say.
ReplyDeleteI really don't.
