I think the restricted and hands on interface is significant. (but I suppose you can have a fairly similar thing in software also).hydrogen wrote: Do you think that that other 65-35% of the vibe is mainly because of the hands on interface? or are you talking about from a pure sound standpoint?
my favorite things about these emulations like the uno-60... is the inherent limitations imposed. There isn't 800 modulation routing available... the synth is streamlined and yet there is still plenty of sound possibilities.
Yeah like I say the software can do really good stuff, but I think it's really worth spending some time with the original boxes to see if you can find anything there.
I think the difference in sound is significant.
Plus the idea of emulating something is just kind of a wierd one. A lot of the best instruments comes from people being stranded with technology and not quite knowing how to apply it. Emulations, well, in lots of cases they're just a bit dull.
I dunno, that's just my opinion and it could be influenced only by make believe and bad hearing. Best thing is to tryand find out for yourself.
