Nice to know Yodelgoat...did you mean to post this to the Ever-Expanding Gear thread? This is the Synthesizer love thread...
Totes fine either way, just in case you meant a different audience

I did search around a little before posting this bit of stuff.
Thought it had a more 'porn' appeal because of it's virtual nature.
"One such collection of synths, the VCV Rack, offers open-source virtual modular synths almost entirely free, with only a few at very modest prices. The standalone virtual rack works without any additional software. Once you’ve created an account and installed it, you can start adding dozens of plug-ins, including various synthesizers, gates, reverbs, compressors, sequencers, keyboards, etc. “It’s pretty transformative stuff,” writes CDM. “You can run virtual modules to synthesize and process sounds, both those emulating real hardware and many that exist only in software.”" "

Oh wow, I saw Buster posting about that yesterday...it looks very, very cool!
Modular stuff is so much fun for experimenting, I highly encourage it, and as open source? You just can't beat that price

That looks pretty lovely. It actually kind of reminds me of my MS2000, although I'm sure it's quite a bit more advanced

Hey, I just found out that Steve Roach is nominated for a Grammy! Here is a story about him from our local Public Radio. https://www.azpm.org/p/home-art-radi...h-steve-roach/
Talk about a gear collection...the guy has a ton of the coolest stuff. He lives south of Tucson. I have met him several times at shows and at our local B & M musical instrument store...he is such a nice guy, always willing to chat, and even recommended to me one of my best gear purchases, the Electrix Repeater

Is he using a Prophet t-8 as the controller keyboard? That is the coolest!
The tune is very JRJ circa Rendez-vous, so perhaps he’s emulating the Elka Synthex?

Yep...that is some lovely stuff :-) Many of these cats are WAY better sound designers than I am...I'm still mostly grooving out on the theme to Blade Runner whenever I start mucking about with mine
It's a terrific synth, one of the most enjoyable experiences I've had with a new device in quite some time. Starting to not suck on the Linnstrument too, which is grand!

Another synth made of "unobtanium"....
My Progressive Workshop at http://soundcloud.com/hfxx
^^^ Wow, that was an amazing sounding synth. I take it by "unobtainium" its expensive? _ I sure hear the difference in the sound. You could make a real piece of crap song sound quite majestic with that thing.
I am looking at a tool to help me compose, and since I do most of that on guitar, I have been looking at the Fishman Triple play. Does anyone here know if you can actually record straight MIDI with that? - All the demo's show the interface just playing a patch. They never mention about the ability to capture the raw MIDI information and then edit it and send it to a different patch.
I take it this is mostly a Keys thread, so a guitar synth may be a bit out of place, but I have confidence that someone here might know if that is a part of the technology. I have started to experiment using MIDI with my Roland drums - recording MIDI, instead of the actual drum module sounds and that has led me down a MIDI rabbit hole. and now I am also considering doing some of my parts I have written on Guitar - that I could probably never play on a Keyboard without hours on practice, using MIDI information. The Fishman is being touted as a perfect "guitarists" midi performance tool, but I just want to capture MIDI info and perhaps use a broader range of instrumentation than I have previously considered. - Any thought? There has to be a way to capture raw MIDI information, right?

The Triple Play System with the USB receiver creates an additional MIDI input to you computer/DAW. With the additional foot controller you don't need the computer - you can connect external MIDI synths. And yes, it creates MIDI-information, which you can record and edit.

The t-8 was a truly deluxe synth, probably the ultimate in polyphonic analog, at least during the (premature, as it turned out) death-throes of analog in the late 80s. Not only did it have eight full voices of polyphony with two dedicated audio oscillators per voice and a bunch of other cool specs, but it had probably the best keyboard of the analog era. 76 full-sized keys, weighted, with extremely detailed touch-sensitivity (calibrated sensors on each key and the like). It was such a monster keyboard that Synclavier cannibalized the technology from Sequential Circuits and incorporated it into their system. It’s actually kind of an overwhelming instrument for a novice keyboardist like me; unless you’re used to getting the most (dynamics-wise) out of your Steinway Concert Grand, I can’t making a t-8 live up to its full potential.

It got some beating a decade or two later, when most brainless analog cult took off. It was launched about the same time as the Prophet 600 and the two contain more or less te same circuits, including the not-that-highly-regarded highly integrated Curtis chips. The P600 was never nearly as highly regarded as the P5s - ecpecially the SSM version. Thereby T8 was regarded as a sheep-in-wolves-clothing, albeit its wonderful keys and response,
However, the main P600 critique was about its sluggish interface, stepping noise and slow ADSRs, due to the fact that everything but the sound generation itself were controlled by an overloaded Z80 microprocessor! Later mods, replacing the Z80, make the P600 an entirely new instrument.
But for the T-8, the timing critical functions were already handled by a second processor - a much more powerful (and by the time, very expensive) Z8000 processor - the T-8 din't ever have the same issues as P600. But the analog brainwashees just stared at the sound chips.... "No good!" The powerful synth has since got a well deserved revival and regarded up there among the "best"!

This actually came up on Reverb for me (HA!!). Kind of a cool-looking synth although I'm not sure it tempts me much (even at a lower price):

I'd be curious to hear exactly where it contributed to the BR2049 score...most of what I hear is samples and/or CS-80. But there are some noisy/distorted bits here and there that are quite lovely. It would be super fun to just mess with though!

Apologies if I've shared this already (or someone posted about it already) but I find this whole ANS thing rather fascinating:
https://boingboing.net/2012/06/27/synth.html
I've actually used similar software synths before (image to sound applications) and while the results are rarely melodic in nature they can be quite fluid and three-dimensional.
