🎵 From the lush Blade Runner string pad to iconic riffs like “I Hear You Now”, “Chariots of Fire”, “Billie Jean”, and more, I compare how these synths stack up in tone, playability, and character.

🔥 Which synth comes out on top?

You’ll hear:

The magic of the Yamaha CS80’s legendary polyphonic aftertouch.
The subtle strengths of each VST clone, from Cherry Audio's sparkling highs to Arturia's deep bass and Softube’s all-around excellence.

SOR Waldorf Microwave Presets | Unique patches for Techno and Melodic House production

video upload by SoundsOfRevolution

https://www.sounds-of-revolution.com/...

"SOR Waldorf Microwave Presets offers 131 patches (67 programs and 64 multis/splits) for Waldorf Microwave 1. You get evolving ambient textures, organic pads, classic house stabs, hard-pumping basses, unique effects, glassy, cold, powerful leads, and many wonderful analog-sounding patches. The presets are modern and retro and go well with every genre of electronic music. You can modify most sounds via Aftertouch, Bender, and/or Modulation.

As this unusual Synth never fails to impress with its distinct sound, I have added the Microwave 1 plugin to my SOR-Blog under 'Best Synth VST Plugins'. I really enjoy these slightly gritty, broken wavetable tones and the powerful filter, which sounds truly unique. It’s simply a fantastic recreation of a classic!

The download of ‘SOR Waldorf Microwave Presets’ includes the original synth patches (MIDI File dump) I produced for the classic hardware synthesizer (128 patches), as well as a revised and perfected new version for the Plugin (131 patches). 24 MIDI files are also included for musical inspiration and context; you can hear them in the demo.

Please note: Since the Microwave has no internal effects, a few standard effect plugins were used for the demo. All sounds, except the drums, are from the Microwave 1 plugin.

Requirements: Waldorf Microwave 1 Plugin or Waldorf Microwave 1 Hardware Synthesizer"

Korg multi/poly Analog Modeling Synth: First Look!

video upload by Keith Crosley

"The latest Korg R&D synth—the Korg multi/poly—just dropped outta nowhere, and I was lucky enough to snag one in stock (thanks, Zzounds!). Let's take a look and listen to this super-interesting, super-fun, badass monster synth. In this video, I'm mostly talking about what's new and different vis-a-vis Korg wavetate and modwave. We'll surely be doing more videos about this thing in the future. And, OF COURSE, you can use KRC Mathwaves with it, 'cuz wavetables. Grab your waveshaper and get ready for some virtual-voice-cards-a-go-go virtual analog goodness! (Spoiler alert: My quick review is this synth is rad.)"
