alpha juno 1 is a good hybrid synthesizer.

Wouldn't be too excited about the other two tho. Unless you
want preset machines (they definitely have a time and a
place, but aren't for everyone).

thanks for advice, do you own one? I have really little
experience with hardware. All I got to play was some
borrowed electribes and a dx27 I have no use for.

dx27 is close the dx100 which was used on early aphex twin
records like saw 85-92 m8
learn fm m8, you can do weird bass lines and kawaii
approximations of real instruments

imo, whatever equipment youve got, the best thing is to
enjoy what youve got in front of you :-D

the fact is fm programming is really abstract for my tastes,
then why embark in a journey trough dx clumsy menu when I
could use a well designed interface (i.e fm8)

No, I haven't owned any of them. I know a lot of people who
have an Alpha Juno 1 tho and love it.

Its got DCO's (which are digitally clocked analogue
oscillators), so generally its going to be warmer than your
average virtual analogue or VST. The filters and amplifiers
are voltage controlled.

However, its not as instantly gratifying as a lot of gear
thats laden with knobs. Its all programmed through a dial
and membrane buttons, so it will take you a little time and
patience to get used to, specially if you are mostly used to
virtual synthesizers. However, you can get programmers for
your computer that will make things easier for you.

Thats just the gas talking. As soon as you get your jupiter
8, you will be in the market for a cs80.

I got my alpha juno for 60€, it's a nice synth but awkward
to program

The cs80 was nice too, but it's either both of them, or just
the jupiter 8.
