Jexus/WC Olo Garb has been a staple of youtube synth videos for years now. His vids were hugely helpful when I was shopping around across a wide gamut of synthesizers. For another classic synth channel, check out Max, who has a great studio of rare and vintage gear, including a Waldorf Wave, and never misses a beat or note with his playing. He has a sort of "1980s" style that I really enjoy. (more videos available on his channel) |

ah thx man. makes me realise how undedicated ive been to music making. i used to watch a fair few synth vids but never found them very interesting. any more recommendations? |

I feel the same way about being undedicated. I'd grown comfortable playing things mostly "well enough" and letting software/quantization take care of the rest, but I've recently grown into a hardware revival and hope to get back to my previous playing skill of 5+ years ago where I would practice every day. As far as recommendations go I don't have any channels in particular to recommend, except maybe if you're interested in reviews of modern gear or a few interviews with producers here and there. Aside from the aforementioned videos I've just been watching the same Microwave XT videos over and over as I shop around for one at a good price. People say its capabilities are dated by today's standards but I'm so tired of all this VST softsynth rubbish that I'll do just about anything to get out of the rut. (And the XT still sounds damn fine to me!) |

im really not interested in gear. not because its uninteresting but because its nothing to do with what i want to do. now thats an insight into my self contained and basically conservative nature really i think. sort of wish i was more gogetter about music in some ways. i like this stuff a lot because its like a trapped memory that the synth knows how to talk about when fingered up by a talented man with eyes that sees everything in synth. now thats what id like to be able to do. still working on it - in reason 4 |

ykno i really get what you are saying with vsts. not that i judge the dudes who use them at all, honestly i dont think its a bad thing. but whenever i use them i feel stuck in a rut too, cant explain it. reason is reasonable. its synths are fab darling and i love the limitations. tbh i cant think of a thing the THOR isnt capable of but there are no shortcuts. you have to work with it |

hey nooge check this. i make it with only thor synths. i let the synth go and dont really control it. only a bit of automation but the rest is lfos and cvs a lot of it is inexperienced use of fm. |

That sounds pretty nice man, and I'm not against people who use softsynths either (I use a bunch, myself), but still I feel they are lacking a certain "3D" depth to the sound that is just very difficult if not impossible to find outside of good hardware, at least for someone of my mixing/mastering skill. I'm not an analog purist by any stretch but I do find myself much more interested in hardware these days than I was for the past few years. staz and dave_g: I've actually been watching a ton of vids from both of those guys and stupidly forgot to mention them. I'm a big fan of both; cheers for taking up the slack. |
