Musikmesse: John Bowen Solaris Videos
YouTube via delamartv — March 29, 2010 —
"The Synthesizer Solaris from John Bowen is an exceptional piece of hardware. We could interview John Bowen during the Musikmesse 2010 in Frankfurt and ask him about the new features in Solaris.
John Bowen shows us all the good stuff about Solaris and even a new filter he finished few days before the show.
If you like more information on John Bowen and Solaris, watch the second part of this video either on our YouTube Channel or on www.delamar.de"

I know I should be excited about this instrument, but I'm having a hard time doing so. I think he would have been much more successful if this was a VSTi instead of an expensive piece of hardware.
ReplyDeleteAnalog is the "new" physical instrument, VSTis are the "new" virtual analog. There's becoming less and less of a mesh between the two worlds and that's probably what it should have always been...
Totally disagree. VSTis lack the main feature of the Solaris:an impressive realtime interface. The Solaris appeals to the "Player" crowd vs the"Input" crowd. Different beasts entirely.
ReplyDeleteAlso, all that dedicated DSP in hardware leaves your CPU free to do all those other tasks you've got planned. ;)
ReplyDeleteWell, the Solaris started out life as a VST, didn't it? But the beauty of a hardware Solaris is that it has 6 displays. The Solaris is the Xpander for the modern era with knobs everywhere and tons of functionality. Sure it's virtual, but it has the huge advantage of all that power but without being severely limited by a VST's single-finger interface (i.e., with a mouse).
ReplyDeleteSerial #25, hopefully by summer (but I'm a little bummed I won't have it in time to bring to AHNE).
