Super 6 - UDO Audio Polysynth review 

Totally I agree. It was love at first sight and it's the Poly I've always wanted.

yeah, I think he is missing chorus or something

That was bugging me, thanks.

Burning down the house! My house, is out of the ordinary. That's right, don't want to hurt nobody..

THREE-HUN-DRED-SIX-TY-FIVE-DEGREES!

@BC J BURNING DOWN THE HOUSE!

Andrew M I’d you get the blue or the black one ? How long was the wait to get yours ?

I'm super jealous

@@LocaliLLocano I initially got the black because damn it looked sleek, but I cancelled the preorder halfway through 2020 because I was anxious about it never coming to the states (which it hasn't) over that time I felt like I regretted not getting the more fun color, blue, so when I ordered via a small overseas music store, I got it in blue :) It arrived a week later, I've owned it for about two months now!

Andrew M hey Andrew did you get it at gear4music? Are you from the states ? How long was the ship time? I like the blue too. It reminds me of a Jupiter 6 and a sporty g shock watch.

@@LocaliLLocano I acquired mine at funkyjunk from the UK - spent 200 on shipping but got it much much earlier.

How do you like it?

I was skeptical at first, but man it sounds so good. Can’t wait to see what UDO make next

Why is FPGA better than traditional DSP?

maybe a modern looking hardware design style ;-)

@Donal Finn yes, that i konw; but wat's so better with FPGA rather than DSP?

@Donal Finn You can have digital without code. Digital just means discrete logic values rather than continuous voltages. For example: the original Yamaha FM chips, are definitely digital, but aren't executing anything we'd call "code". The difference is, regular code is a set of instructions that are stored in memory and evaluated by a processor at runtime. In a simplified sense, FPGA is more a set of logic gates (and/or/not/etc.) that signals are sent between at runtime. It's configured, rather than programmed. It can also do much more in parallel as you dedicate different blocks to perform parallel tasks (like reading input). One is not necessarily better than the other (and neither of them have a "sound"). But the FPGA is more of a hardware solution once the initial work is done vs DSP chip which is a normal code-running processor with specialized functions for signal processing. I think this quote from Sparkfun (posting the link will get the comment moderated, so look up "sparkfun how does an FPGA work" for more info) is helpful: "However, FPGAs can be far more efficient in terms of processing time as well as offering very tight timing. To illustrate this, let’s look at a trivial example of turning an LED on when you press a button. If you wrote code to do this with something like an Arduino, the processor would run a small loop of code that would read the state of a pin then update the state of another pin based on that value. If you optimized the code you could probably get this to update in the millions of times per second. That may sound great but let’s look at what it would look like with an FPGA. In the case of simply connecting a button to an LED with an FPGA, you simply connect the button and the LED. The value from the button passes through some input buffer, is fed through the routing matrix, then output through an output buffer. This process happens continuously all the time. The only delay comes from the switching delays of the transistors in the chip, which are incredibly small."

i agree.

I love the button choice they went with on this synth. Those are my favourite kind of buttons.

Gassing for things is a real issue, but I promise you, this is entirely different. This is just a good-ass product.

Resistance is useless... test it and keep it. You will🙂 i had no chance to test it before buy, so I bought it blind, only bAsed on youtube reviews. I was not disappointed one second - but am still overwhelmed. Greatful that i picked one.

Yes

Me too!

Touching keys and knobs is simply unbeatable 😊👍🏼...

Not when it sounds as good as this does. There's no plugin on the planet that'll sound as impressive. Even stuff like Omnisphere sounds feeble and cheap compared to this thing.

@bookmarkthis it's a hybrid.

@bookmarkthis no. It’s not.

@bookmarkthis....the video in which the line "let's listen to the filter, because this is the analog part of the instrument" is said......

Dangerous business being a statue these days.

i was thinking the same thing XD

@@abhayasky What are the chances?

My ob-xa just waltzed over, hugged me and said "hello"

@BC J the only other one that will buy will be the Essence FM from Kodamo (300 polyphony, 1800 oscillators), but that's it

EssenceFM is great 👍

Yeah price point too high, although do want one!

For what you get it’s fair, those are amazing Rossum-designed Prophet filters, 12 of them. Not cheap.

Also it’s built like it costs. Internally, only top quality components that’ll last decades and decades supposedly. Behringer who makes affordable stuff doesn’t use these kind of high-quality capacitors etc. and you can definitely hear the difference. It costs like it sounds. Professional-level instrument here.

Polybrute does not sound like this.

As of now it's automatically set to a major chord

That would be dope, you can use the sequencer to do that as a bit of a workaround though
