Five Polysynths - Which Should You Buy?

video upload by Alex Ball

"To answer the many questions I get about these specific modern polysynths I've decided to cover it off in a massive video. Hopefully this clears up which synth is or isn't the one for you!

All sounds are presented "raw" meaning that only FX from the synths themselves were used (if they have them) and that there was no processing of the audio afterwards. What you hear is what the synths sound like.

Notes:
1) Cheers to Markus for the Hydrasynth loan.
2) Cheers to CALC for sorting the Summit.
3) Cheers to UDO for sorting Super 6.
4) Cheers to Roland for sorting the Jupiter-X.
5) Cheers to Sequential for bringing back the OG Prophet.
6) First person to say "i cAn'T bELiEvE yOu fOrGoT tHe pOlyBrUtE" or something similar has to do 50 press ups and 10 Hail Marys.

UDO Super 6 Synthesizer - 1st Look Sonic LAB

Published on Dec 17, 2019 sonicstate

"U.D.O. Audio are just down the road from us in Bristol, we've been hoping to get them in to show the new Super 6 Synthesizer - a 12 voice (FPGA oscillators) Binaural synthesizer, with analog VCF and VCA with a stereo audio patch and some interesting new concepts in stereo imaging. Each voice has 2 oscillators, including wavetables, plus high speed and keyboard tracking LFO. Binaural mode halves the voice count to 6, but the stereo width and movement is really lovely to behold.

Designer George Hearn came over to show us as the first batch of cases are in production and they put the last few pieces of the firmware together for release early next year"

UDO Audio & Hazel Mills - Bloom - Super 6

video upload by UDO Audio

"Hazel's back with another awe inspiring performance using the Super 6 Keyboard and Desktop.

Taking inspiration from Steve Reich, Hazel built this Minimalist composition by programming a simple, repating sequence on the Desktop with subtle variation. Over time, with the addition of a gorgeous pad on the Keyboard, this accumilates and builds into an uplifting, hypnotic sequence, made all the better by a simple four-to-the-floor kick.

When paired together, the Desktop and Keyboard can be extremely powerful and immediate, making performances like this a joyus and playful journey in sound.

We hope you enjoyed the video, have a great weekend.

UDO Audio & Hazel Mills - Daylight - Super 6

video upload by UDO Audio

"Here is Hazel, performing her composition 'Daylight', using both the Super 6 Keyboard and Desktop in unison together. We love the depth and vastness of sounds you can reach with these instruments, and how easily you can get lost in the enjoyment of playing them - as Hazel has so brilliantly demonstrated."

6 minutes (LIVE) with binaural UDO SUPER 6

video upload by Chris Hunt

"I could do this all day, but had to stop at some point. This is the UDO Super 6 synthesizer and it's pretty cool for a lot of reasons, but what we're mostly hearing in this tune is the onboard binaural audio, chorus effects, delay, and custom wavetables.

00:00 Hello Super 6
00:42 Filtering out all bad thoughts
01:15 Round peg in Square hole
02:00 OK, transitioning...
02:28 High-pass filter activated
03:23 What goes up, must come down
04:23 HOLD activated, goodbye all

The controls we're messing with during the performance are the DDS (OSC) mixer and the high/low-pass filters.

The patch started with init, then we added binaural audio, solo voice, a bit of de-tuning, and heavy cross-mod. I don't even know what cross-mod does yet because I haven't finished the manual, but it does some crazy stuff to the sound. DDS1 is a custom wavetable and DDS2 is a square. If you look closely in the video you can actually see all the settings because it's 'what you see is what you get'."

UDO Audio Releases the Super Gemini Synthesizer | Superbooth 2023

video upload by Reverb

"UDO Audio's new Super Gemini is a 20-voice polyphonic, bi-timbral analog-hybrid synth that, like the Super 6, can also be used as a 10-voice stereo binaural synth. It features digital oscillators that offer wave-morphing, cross and ring modulation, bi-directional sync, and more—all fed through an analog signal path inspired by vintage instruments. The keyboard features 61 semi-weighted keys with polyphonic aftertouch and the Super Gemini also features a custom-engineered ribbon sensor."

Premieres Apr 25, 2020 sonicstate

"UDO Super 6 is coming near to its release date; we were happy to hook up with designer George Hearn remotely as part of our Superbooth Home Edition coverage. As UDO are obviously still stuck back in the UK as well they were kind enough to give us a remote walkthrough or their offices and workshop.

The Super 6 is almost shipping now, so we’re excited to see them start going out into the wild. If you’re interested in getting hold of one then you can still pre order them!"
