Re: [AN1x] Why have more then 1 synth?

2007-06-22 by Ed Edwards

Like Peter explains ------ no single synth can create all sounds 
imagined or desired.  Consider a car -- each has its special qualities 
that set it apart.. some incorporate more due to innovative design and 
final costs, others produce some very special functions that surpass 
very expensive models due to innovation and ingenuity.   Every car has 
its strengths and limitations.  All tools must be selected by a 
weighting scale that determines 
function+durability+versatility/cost-investment.

Although I absolutely love some of the AN1x sounds, I must have other 
synths to produce unique audio beauty found nowhere else.  The 
individual choices are up to the artist...  Personally I need the 
authenticity of orchestral instrumentation as well as the futuristic 
sweeps of a VA synth.
