Bad Gear - IK Multimedia UNO Synth 

Good gear were in your heart all along

Sure, but I'm more interested in unique and hard-to-use sounds 'cause I'm a noise demon. :)

It definitely ticks alot of boxes 👍😎

Probably depends on your definition of "good" gear. But as old a saying says: One mans bad gear is another mans Money Machine. (Or someting like that :)) Nice Track by the way. 🕺

Moody DJ face engage ;)

It certainly has a similar noise spectrum;)

My grandma's dialysis machine looks better than this and I have an UNO. Gave it to my granddaughter.

They're also as flimsy as they look.

@@odiroot nearly, but you can also buy 10 for the price of a synth really designed to be giggable. & theres not a heap to break if you dont actually snap off the knobs. even then you could probably use it XD

@@ThePacratz Sorry to hear that your granddaughter needs dialysis. Couldn't they just share the machine?

Seize the day!!!

If it had eaten Julie Andrews, it would have made MY day. LOL!;)

Oh captain, my AAAARRRrrrrr!!!

I have (or had) almost all the gear on this channel. All of his points are spot on and his music (and video work) are excellent. Especially when you consider he’s been going weekly for well over a year now. That’s a lot of original pieces!! I trust his opinion plus that Gearfacts guy from Australia. He has videos on so much “junk” and he’s a character.

@@sheepkillindog Agreed on everything! :)

Thank you so much!!!

Thanks! Watch it twice;)

That one had me rolling too!

@@AudioPilz I gotta say godzilla at the end was brilliant. Inspired. Kept me laughing.

Haha the fuck was that?? Cheers for pointing that out I would never have noticed that 😂😂

So happy to hear that! Thanks!

Thanks! She's a international treasure;)

Thanks!

I was just having this conversation the other day. Someone I know who doesn't listen to this channel all that often was complaining about the name of it, because he liked some of the pieces of gear he saw being reviewed and didn't understand the humor.

The way of gear;)

What made you Need it?

It's like that sometimes but when you're sure, don't let the con man plant the seed of doubt in ur mind.

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much!!!

Thanks!

Good to know, thanks for posting!

Thanks! If you can make it work in your setup it's a good-sounding synth!

Thank you! Let's see if the Pro is Bad Gear too;)

Thanks!

Happy to hear that, thanks!

Thank you so much!!!

Thank you so much!!!

Thanks! Great idea, I'll try that!

Thank you so much!!!

Thanks! I've read some comments that a firmware update helps

Nice, thanks!

Thanks!

Underrated drum machine!

Thank you, always a pleasure!

Thanks! That ain't Sonic;)

Almost there, thanks!

Wiser words have never been spoken;)

Agreed, some very prototypical stuff!

Thank you!!!

Gear of the week is confidential and for Patrons only;)

@@AudioPilz zees boujie pigs!!! *breaks out singing la marseillaise*

Thank you!!!

uff jedN!

Ох, сам Рем Дигга тоже тут 💪

ничеси, тот случай, когда смотришь на ник и спрашиваешь себя, зачем люди подписываются чужими именами, а тут не фэйк.

@@DmitryPuffin да ты и сам крут) glad i looked into your account as well, your latest EP on soundcloud sounds nice (so far).

;)

If you can make it work in your setup it's great!

He’s fair and concise. Some bad things are just limitations. Which sometimes forces you to find workarounds and get creative with it. Plus dude knows his midi and gets a lot out of these “bad” pieces to shine with the aid of software and Ableton, which is great. But some kid at a desk without the smarts is gonna have a tougher time with it. 😀

@@sheepkillindog I agree 100%. The Uno synth certainly not the “greatest synth” out there but for me and my sound work s perfectly and with a few tweaks I can pretty much get it to do what I need but unlike the Volcas,I can save my presets!

@@sheepkillindog dude - just sitting down with this thing, no app, is a pretty geat way to learn basic subtractive synthesis, i dont think you need a lot of smarts for uno at all. And srsly its hard to argue with any 2 Osc + resonant filter analog synth for $150US, let alone one as capable as this. It was certainly never intended a s a studio instrument but for what it is its killer.

None of this gear us nessisarily "bad". It's all about how you use it. Perhaps you wouldn't make a full album on it. But you can definitely find uses for any piece of gear if you're creative about it.

Happy to hear that, thanks!

Thanks! No video editing person yet...

Wow, we're really ticking all the boxes here;)

Thank you!!!

Thank you wery much!

@@AudioPilz I only joke because I am jealous. My Minnesota accent doesn't get me as far as an Austrian one would.

Thank you!!!

Thank you!!! Working on it!

Ensoniqs are a serious choking hazard;)

@@AudioPilz 😂- Well, with something that tasty it’s hard not to sit down and occasionally make a meal out of it- ... besides I moved on from crayons ages ago, when I realised the yellow ones didn’t taste of lemon any more than Aira gear has a minty flavour! ;) Mr Carpenter aside, check out Mr Kirk Slinkard’s amazing and delightfully humorous series of videos. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Dw_sd0RHlZY.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7dEzF7QSgQE.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5J016m2wbWI.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Gz8ZmVF4gyE.html Definitely a better gear contender!

LEXX is pretty rad.

Thanks! Alien!!!

every Friyay, as soon as I see a new vid in my subscriptions, as it's loading up - it gets an instalike. :-D

@@Monkeyshaman Just watch out for rogue carrots.

I thought the exact same thing😂

Thanks!

One mighty ole boxticker;)

❤️❤️❤️

A decksave certainly raises the resale value;)

Thanks! I haven't seen SOM until I was in my thirties;)

Agreed, really liked the raw oscillators and filter too

❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜 🖤

Most likely a cop/gangster thing!

UNO Synth - microwaving tracks since 2018

Thanks!

Thank you so much!!!

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm really shirking that one;)

Have you seen the stylophone drum machine its TERRIBLE

@@redonk87 Are you talking about the Hip Hop Stylophone? I have one. Hilariously crap!

😁👍👍

Great suggestion, thanks!

Nice stocking filler!

Thank you!!!

Damn, I hate D-Beams so much!!!

@@briandavis812 the answer is: YES!

Thank you so much!!!

Nothing personal;) Thanks!

Still a better love story than Twilight;)

Finest Viennese tap water;)

Thanks! Great suggestion (unfortunately, I just messed up a good deal for a Mininova😢)

Maybe a kickstarter campaign?;)

Yup, very affordable noisemaker (literally and figuratively;)

Highly recommended!

We live 4 Bad Gear!!!

Agreed!

😀😀😀

He would be the right person to pull this off!!!

Nice price!

There's some truth to that!

Hey, that's my true name😂

😀😀😀

It was more like the other way around;)

Yeah, that's really an issue!

they spec a cable on the IK site that really does help if you have a balanced interface. Much as i cringe to use it lol. the right Powered USB hub also does the job iirc

@@mycosys Yes, the specs for that cable are also in to the manual. My UNO Synth works fine with my balanced input mixer now.

(and I'm USB hub powering it)

Should we go pro?;)

Thanks!

It sounds pretty phat though...

Samples or didn't happen;)

@@AudioPilz Samples specifically on the SK-1 (which you dubbed the OG Fart Sampler) :D

"Godzilla steals a kiss"

@@AudioPilz 🤣

Thank you!!!

Thanks!

Yeah, so many omissions!!!

Agreed, great for beginners. It sounds like a real synth

Thank you for your patience;)

EN really knows his stuff!

Lol!!!😅
