The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Heu Joergen,
I do own some old roland synths
including all the Jupiters and some Sh series.
to me any jupiter 8 will kill any SH series when it comes to phatness.
only the unison mode will take care of it.
I even got to play for a while with the SH5 and SH7
Now, let's assume that the old Roland synths like the SH5 or 7 or 3 or 2
are realy phat, ( and they are in their own way)
The Pulse plus is only a 2 rack space and have full midi...
what about the modulation abilities and the Dynamics ?
not to mention the stereo outs.
all these factors do count when you compare the 'phatness'
in any 2 synths.
again,
in my humble view this makes it a better choice,
don't you agree ?
