  • Never bought a synthesizer so fast. What really sold me was seeing and hearing the dedication and true love the Sequential team has for creating instruments.
    On top of that, this synth sounds crazy fat, punchy, dreamy, lofi, everything! It's such a fun way to learn synthesis and its Mod matrix is easy to use.

    That last bit you talked about to the cam was exactly what I felt when I was watching some NAMM vids. I'm also a guy who LOVES to talk about synthesis in any shape. The love and thought that goes into these devices is just a joy to see. I love all these vids dude.

    Amazing demo as always! So true what you said about the guys at Sequential, Dave included. It’s clear that they genuinely love what they do and I believe it truly shows through their gear, their demos, and their amazing customer service. I knew I had to have the Pro3 as soon as it was announced. I’ve preordered one now, and it will be my first Sequential synth. I can’t wait.

    This is the synth which finally got me interested in Sequential's products. It's not the most powerful synth ever, but its design is incredible and it really invites the user to explore and get messy. The human element is amazingly well done.

    Agree! Happy to own the pro2... most underrated synth ever... the 3 seems to have a few new tweaks, especially in the sequencer. great one from dave as always. Using it with modular gear is absolutely amazing

    • @lexi0006
      @lexi0006 Před 3 lety +2

      So true. I wish I could upvote your comment a couple or times! I love my Pro-2 and the incredible modular system I’ve built over the years. Add Arturia’s Keystep Pro and/or Beatstep Pro and you have amazing flexibility and power.

  • @m.g.kroger
    @m.g.kroger Před 4 lety

    Thank you! That's a Pro 3 video that brings me where I need to go, sound design, not simply features.

  • @sauce_aux
    @sauce_aux Před 4 lety +2

    I would say it’s a contender for one of the best synths, if not the best mono synth ever made. It’s amazingly deep for how straight forward it is. It really tells you something when a company gives you features you are familiar with but you end making sounds you have never made before, with the same tools. DSI/Sequential nailed it with the “push & turn” mod routing. The Rev2 has that function, and seeing that transferred to the Pro 3 was great. Makes a world of difference when noodling.

  • @jeanbenoit6610
    @jeanbenoit6610 Před 4 lety +1

    the versatility of this synth is awesome, from warm to lo-fi to harsh - everythings there. and you didn't even bother about adding effects. have to say i really enjoyed the sound of that reverb from some of the demos though. bout to take a dump on my savings.

  • @robappleby583
    @robappleby583 Před 2 lety +2

    To me the Pro 3 is really a powerful modular with a feature rich sequencer/arpeggiator and a keyboard on-board. It's so easy to set up complex modulations, I really love that in just a few steps you can get places you probably wouldn't have imagined ahead of time, and it nearly always sounds good (a matter of taste of after all). Every time I play it - which is every day - I discover new directions. Even things that I don't really find useful (like the tuned feedback and grunge settings) I'm sure sooner or later I'll have a eureka moment with. Just a fantastic machine and incredible value for money if you consider how much all this would cost in modular terms.

  • @davidbenasulin

  • @MSPatterson
    @MSPatterson Před 4 lety +6

    That note-rotating paraphonic thing is sick, so much variety out of a single chord input. Be a bit tricky to reproduce in a modular, have to do a bunch of envelope retriggering and switched sequence/arp routing or something like that.

      Update 4.14 adds fine and coarse tuning to the sub oscillator on the Bass Station II. Along with AFX mode, separate glide rate for each oscillator, Fixed duration And retrigger count envelopes. The previous update also added paraphonic mode and some other great stuff. It honestly went from listed for sale to one of my favorite synths in my studio with those updates ✊

    Great video man. You can really see this as an alternative to a modular system in a lot of ways. One question though: do you know what the main differences betweent his and the pro 2 are? I know teh pro 2 is 4 all digital osc, but is this new one more advanced in sequencing?

  • @richardfarabaugh7604

      @Chipmunk Jones Have you ordered your Pro 3 yet Mr Jones? You clearly can't keep away from demos of this beast. Just accept defeat and give in to those urges. By the way, I used to own the DSI Mono evolver (keyboard version). Loved the sounds but hated the user interface so ended up selling (somewhat reluctantly). Now with the release of the Pro 3 it will get me in a similar ball park of industrial nastiness but the UI and sequencer takes it to another level in my opinion.

    i preordered mine a month ago and still am waiting, I can't find an exact date when it drops but considering you have yours maybe it'll release this week. Hows the ladder filter? Is it similar to a moog? I own a prophet 6 and a fan of the OB but was about to buy a Moog for mono stuff till I caught wind of this guy. Regardless I'm so excited and great vid!

    When you played by altering the parameters of of the arpeggiated chord, I thought how great would be to play any Bach preludes which includes arpeggio, like BWV 846, 848, 851, you change the chords progtession, while the synth plays the seqience, the play the bass note on another mono synth...
