 The six hundred and fifty dollar XD looks very similar to the original mini log. It'S got the same metal front, plate wooden back minimal black knobs and lightly textured switches as the rest of the line. It'S a design, that's quickly becoming iconic, and it doesn't just look great. It feels great too

 I'Ve only had it a few days and have mostly been playing with the presets, but the sheer range of tones you can get is simply stunning. If you need proof just check out the music playing now, it was made entirely with the mini log XD, including the drums. The only external processing I did was to add a little compression and EQ enabled [ Music ] Gorga's landed on some sort of magic formula that many of its competitors simply haven't figured out yet and when it comes to bang for your buck analog since there's still The company to be [ Music, ], you [, Music, ] 

 It'S a design, that's quickly becoming iconic, and it doesn't just look great. It feels great too. The knobs and switches are satisfying and they feel like they were harvested from the sort of tank like since companies built in the 70s. The only real knock here is the keys just like the original mini log

Korg Minilogue XD Review

 Somehow, I’m beginning  to wonder if the JD-08 isn’t the more interesting synth out of the two  new boutiques (and, as already mentioned, I’m really interested in this  form factor so there are few other options for me in this case). It just  seems like the JD-08 is sparkling a bit more, while still having the  ability to produce retrowave-compatible sounds.

* If I have batteries inserted and power it through usb-c, I would  expect it to seamlessly switch from usb-c power to battery if I unplug  the USB cable. Instead, it just shuts down. I lost a sound design in  process as a result of the USB cable coming loose, despite batteries  inside.

* The form factor is really neat. The build quality is great. It’s  heavier than I thought and perhaps not as easy to use on the lap unless  you have a healthy back and neck of a 20-year old (I’m not one of those  anymore, I’m afraid!), but the fact that it’s battery powered and can be  powered by usb-c is amazing and makes it so easy to plug and play. I  have a small pair of wired 3

5mm earbuds that I keep connected to it all  the time. It’s small enough that I can keep it in my narrow little  bedside table drawer, meaning it’s always close by when I feel like a  quick jam. The faders move a little too easily for my taste, but they’re  very responsive and accurate, so in practice they’re a joy to use.

 And you don't have to connect a myriad of costly external effects units. This is one of the reasons I chose the Minilogue XD over the original Minilogue. Synth aficionados online may claim that these effects are not high quality enough, but this is an exaggeration - the built-in effects sound incredible. On the Moog Grandmother there's an authentic spring reverb tank for analog reverb

 - When using a particular program/preset, none of the physical knobs reflect the current state of the synth. However, it's not intuitive that you have to press Shift + Play for the "panel load function". While I understand that this is a limitation of an analog synth with built-in programs, I feel that there should be a dedicated "panel load" button. Certainly, it should be mentioned in more than just a subsection in the hard-to-locate online-only PDF manual

  Is it perfect? No. I would love more voices, a full filter envelope generator, maybe another LFO, 24db/octave ladder filter for a meaner filter sweep. Does it sound like a Matriarch or OB-6? Not quite. But in many respects it's so much more, for much less money

Summary: This is a perfect analog synth to get you started. Plenty of capability to keep you hooked as you advance.  - A major factor in my decision to get this synth was the excellent design. The intuitive layout of all the knobs and switches along with the display and built-in effects is simply not found in any other analog synth of this size, quality or price

  - A major factor in my decision to get this synth was the excellent design. The intuitive layout of all the knobs and switches along with the display and built-in effects is simply not found in any other analog synth of this size, quality or price. The use of digital menus to change settings (ie. "menu diving") is very limited, which is ideal for a beginner

Absolutely incredible all-in-one synth solution - UPDATE after 2 years

 As far as I know, and according to raw sonic capability, the Minilogue xd is the best you can buy at this price point.  (CONS) Things I don't like:  -Limited modular capabilities; if you're interested in going down the rabbit-hole of modular synthesis, you might be disappointed that the Minilogue xd has a CV in/out and sync-in/out capability for modular expansion and experimentation.  -Complexity & Potential; This point would definitely be in the "Pro" section of this review if I had more knowledge and experience. I've discovered that there's a massive learning curve to overcome when becoming familiar with sound synthesis, so this was an issue for me when I first bought the Minilogue xd

  -Waveform Visualizer; It's been an invaluable learning tool to have a visual reference for the sounds. It's probably not a selling point for those with more experience using synthesizers, but as a beginner this was a huge resource for me. It also just looks really cool, and makes the product seem more legit.  -Price Point; from reading dozens of reviews and comparisons, and talking to veteran synthesizer enthusiasts and a few industry professionals, you're not going to find too many options as powerful as the Minilogue xd for this price

 You can route that to a number of destinations. So if we wanted to route that to oscillator octave by certain amounts - [ Music ] - oh let's make that also a random pitch or we could remo. Let'S go to oscillator, show [ Music ] an interesting about possibility. We'Ve got granularity to individual envelope elements, but also something that's really nice is

 If we go into program, we can switch the key follow off uh. If i switch on, we switch the key follow off on one of these oscillators, it's kind of handy. We can also sync between one and two other than that these are totally identical, so if we bring them both up, let's just go: two saws come out of here and i'll create a little bit of d2 [ Music ] in terms of sonics. They sound pretty beefy they're, not like hugely thunderous, but they've got plenty of stuff there

 Let'S bring the level up a bit quarter resonance [, Music, ], half resonance three quarters: full we've actually also got this drive, uh parameter. [, Music ], which helps sort of soften and smooth the cut off. It'S quite subtle, but it adds a nice bit of extra smurge and the great thing is about this: is it doesn't have a base roll-off so we're not losing bottom end when we bring the resonance in, which is always even on a polysynthetic? Sometimes you can use it as a high-pass filter effect, it's nice to know because it means that we can have those really massively resonant bassy sounds there's also um a high pass filter. If we had to use the effects, we've got effects here, i'll just dial in uh up to, i think, that's high pass there

 At the same time as modulating the cutoff another nice little feature are the lfos now, while they're quite basic and we've got they're identical in ways. Obviously one is global and one is per voice, but they do go quite high up into audio rate. So i've got the sound here which i've rooted. You can actually set the destination outside the mod matrix to any of the parameters that you can

Sequential Take 5 Poly Synth review - Sonic LAB

 Going up octaves, the Peak retains a slightly brighter sound, but again it's barely different and I could only really tell in isolation. 100% filter resonance on the Take 5 is way less shrieky, a lot more musical. I think Peak's attack envelope can go slower, but I think the releases are comparable. I'm not a huge fan of the square wave's PWM on the Take 5 - it has a really narrow sweet spot

 Closing them to roughly the same point (50%ish), the Take 5 is actually slightly brighter. Jumping down an octave, the Take 5 is has *slightly* beefier bass, but honestly I'd be hard-pressed to tell the difference in a mix. Going up octaves, the Peak retains a slightly brighter sound, but again it's barely different and I could only really tell in isolation. 100% filter resonance on the Take 5 is way less shrieky, a lot more musical

 Much easier to do that sort of thing on Peak. Peak's built-in effects are miles better than Take 5's (which lines up with most criticisms I've seen of the T5). I also noticed some aliasing/ distortion/ clipping on pure sines with the T5 if osc level was above 75% and master volume was above 50% - you really have to be careful gain-staging this thing, it really wants to be aggressive.

Got the Take 5 this weekend, and damn it sounds good. My initial impression was slightly sour on the sound, but it turned out I just needed to get used to programming it and gain-staging. Once I did, the thing really came to life.

 So if you modulate say the shape of a sound, let's see if we can do that. So here we have the lfo here controlling the shape of oscillator number one, and if i press it as just one chord, [ Music ], you can follow it along very easily. And if i press each note individually, you can hear how the shape changes differently per node pressed. So that's the difference between this per voice lfo and the global one which would just the global one would just do one sweep of the shape here and not one per voice

 So there we go so something like this [ Music ] and we can spice it up by going alpha one to the shape of oscillator, two [ Music ] and to space it up even more. We can do source design velocity to the frequency here of lfo1. So basically, the envelope now controls the frequency here. The speed of the lfo, which controls the shape, yeah lots of different, interesting modulations going on here, [, Music, ] and here's a cool sound that i want to show you where i'm using the lfo here to control the pitch of oscillator number one and using an Envelope to kind of bring in the lfo slowly [, Music ] and on this patch, i'm using multiple sources to control the resonance giving it

 Let'S fire it up and see what it sounds like right here we go. First: try [ Music, ], [, Music, ], [, Music ], so [, Music, ], oh yeah. This is the sort of sounds that i really like: [, Music ]. I really like that sound it's! It'S reminiscent of a sound that i have over on the arturia polybroad, which is also this kind of gentle interesting, sound, [, Music, ], okay

 I haven't owned any dsi since no sequential since so quite excited to test this one out here. So let's unbox it. So if the title of the video didn't give it away, it's the take 5 from sequential and i got it from perfect circuit - it's a store over in the us. I'Ve linked them in the description we'll be doing some collaborations this year together, because i thought it was kind of nice getting gear from a store
