The BEST Analog Synth Under $100?


video upload by Scott's Synth Stuff

"Can a real analog synthesizer cost less than $100? In this review, I take a hands-on look at the Stylophone Gen X-2, an affordable portable analog synth with a resonant filter, LFO, delay, sub oscillators, CV/Gate connectivity, and surprisingly powerful sound.

I'll unbox it, explore every feature, hear what it actually sounds like, connect it to my ASM Leviasynth via CV/Gate, and find out whether this tiny synth is just a toy - or a serious instrument that's worth adding to your studio.

If you're looking for an inexpensive synthesizer, a portable analog synth, or a fun hardware synth with real analog sound, you may be surprised by what this little Stylophone can do!"
