Re: [AN1x] va synth advice

2010-09-24 by Jerome St-Pierre

I first had a Roland SH-201 and the AN1x is about 10 times better for the
sound or to use as a controller.

I also have the MS2000R but I find the Yamaha is made more professional. It
can sound a lot like real analog. Unlike the MS2000 the step sequencer can
also send on MIDI. For 250 euros it's the best buy I ever made. It's also
very tough, I already dropped my case by accident. There is also enough
knobs, it's like having 48 knobs.

Hi everyone,

I have some synths, but only one is a VA (OB12)...

now, I think that having another VA in my setup wouldn't hurt...

since there are a lot of VAs out there, what's your advice!?

I was considering an an1x or a korg prophecy...
but also the novation nova (for a decent price) could be an option...
or an alesis ion... there's also the ms2000...

I won't consider clavia nords, they're too overpriced for what they actually
do (limited)... same thing for access virus...
waldorf q are out of my price range instead...

so what's the best bang for the bucks in term of sound/features?

greetings

Fabio
