My first synth back in the 80's was a SH101 which is very dull compared to the SH5 - although a lot cheaper - but got me hooked ! This machine has much more to it and capable of some great unique sounds. I have both mono and poly synths, but do find something more attractive about a deep mono synth ! Loving the Sequential Pro2/3 models - check out my other videos.

I agree they could have added some modern touches, but £398 in uk for this machine that seems to be made of steel, lead and concrete (its heavy as f**k) seems like a great price to me.

no adverts here from me - this channel is not monetised

@@emilylamb1883 it’s a pleasure 😁

Excellent ! Such an obvious one - but it's sooo good !

@@PermanentGreen better buy a pro3 😁

What a great idea. The Moog Muse has a good sequencer, but they have over complicated it - the Sequential way is so fast - and you can remember how to do it without the manual after not using the synth for ages.

Yes that's great the Pro2 does that too and I did a video on that ages ago - did think of adding that to this video, but it was long enough already ! Will have to do another one now !

@@FracturedAudio cool, I will watch it, even without owning a Pro 3 anymore.

It's a great comment - the manual describes tuned feedback as "Tuned feedback is a method of processing audio using a delay line with tun-able feedback. By varying the amount and tuning parameters you can use it to create a variety of effects, some subtle, and some industrial-grade nasty, especially if you turn on grunge." - that does not really do it justice either - will have to get a scope plugin and try it on a simple wave to see the effect - just know it sounds wicked !

Im glad you got here ! thanks

See if you can grab a bargain on FB Market or Ebay - I fear Reverb seems to make people put silly prices on things !

Fantastic always happy to enable people to buy synths !

thanks.. just can't help coming back to this machine

Interesting - I have a Matriarch and a Muse and love them both - but the sequencer on the Pro3 blows them all out of the water - I am planning a Pro3 Sequencer video. So knowing what I know, I would probably still go Pro3 if it was just one mothership. Subsequent is also a great synth, but limited compared to the Pro3.

@FracturedAudio OK, thank you for your opinion. Tough decision.

@@tonyhart810 or get both 🤪

@FracturedAudio Ideally yes lol. I have to save up in-between each purchase. On a different note, I really want a modal carbon8 as well. I've never heard anything else like it!

@@tonyhart810 Yes that does look cool although for those tones I tend to use Arturia's Pigments which is also insane !

Stiff knobs are a little strange... but still the synth I come back to the most for creating something different.

@@user-rv8wb1nl1b Ok, good info thank you. Don't like the sound of that really though. I think my heart is set on the Moog to be honest.

@ Moog does one sound (really nicely ) the Pro 3 does that too . . .. and more .

@@user-rv8wb1nl1b agreed - Moog Muse takes it to another level - for a lot more $$ or the Matriarch just goes totally nuts - Pro3 is super versatile and creative

​@@FracturedAudio you can loosen the knobs by doing 30-50 full CW-CCW consequent turns.

Did it work?

@FracturedAudio my MK1 has only left and right in and out and CV Gate out. But I run the A4 thru a overdrive pedal and it is fun. Also I bought a Korg SQ-1 Sequencer sometimes its fun to sequence the A4 or Digitone Have a good day

that's a bit strange.. maybe you have a faulty pot

@@Stray_side that is an AR mk2 just the grey one not the black one

@@FracturedAudio thanks for replying and sharing the vid, but they’re two diff units.

You're welcome 😊

thanks !

I agree, I also have a Matrix Brute and love it for the look/UI and form factor, but rarely use it these days - really struggle to get the kind of sounds that come easy on the Pro2 - still have the Pro3 and its still used regularly. My main synth for the last 18month has been the Walkdorf Iridium Keybaord, its on another level.

you can certainly do that, but often distortion pedals can kill the lowend, so I typically keep both in but you mix it as needed

sadly you cant because it only has a single stereo output - bummer :(

@@ianturner6453 im trying to do this with a patchbay now, it should double my outputs in half normal mode

correct - bummer

I do find the the Pro3 can be more "fat" & Warm than the 2 due to the two analog oscillators and filters - but it is still very versatile and fits well in a mix

thx

the filters are why I really love the pro2, very versatile and use them in both serial and paralel.. probably more in serial much like an MS20

@@FracturedAudio I wonder what Sequential is working on … ?! I’d like a Prophet ‘24 … an updated P12, with all three of the PRO 3 filters, but in series and parallel.

@@kierenmoore3236 P12 with the filters from the Pro2 would be amazing 😁

@@kierenmoore3236 I love the pro2 too - and use the filters mostly in parallel mode

I still have both - but the Pro2 does get more use than the 3

Interesting way to look at it - I definitely manage to get some "trouser shaking" low end from the Pro2, but I know what you mean. I keep thinking I should sell one of them but nearly 3 years after getting the 3 I can't seem to bring myself to sell either !

I’m just joking about the “comparison” video. The pro 3 is being played an octave higher. I know a synth programmer gets as much low end he/she needs from whatever synth is at hand. I think workflow, user interface, available resources (sound sources, modulators, etc) are the big factors that make one instrument more useful to a given user than another. Sonically they’re all just a block of marble waiting for our magic.

Agreed ! @@robertkondor263

enjoy !

thanks ! Its a great synth !

thanks

Just spotted this .. .strange, not looked at the MS20 for a while not sure why that would be -0 hope you find a solution

How you like it?

@@BeatsByJarel honestly it's my favorite synth.

Welcome!!

You bet!

if you go to 1:31 on the video the notes are listed on the display of the Pro2 - also note these are not correct per the original, but "close"

@@FracturedAudiothanks for your reply 👍

Yes ... OMG you asked this a year ago ! I need to get better at responding !

Thanks that’s a compliment indeed 😄

got get another one !!

Pleasure

No - its an external sequencer sending midi

It has four .. but only using two here. Its a very flexible synth - even one Oscillator can sound great.

hi - thanks. I don't think it can be done without some internal hacking - the excellent MS-20 Legacy Plugin does support clock sync of the LFO and sounds fantastic ! While I love the MS-20, I do find when recording I use the plugin more often than the hardware.

@@FracturedAudio thanks for your response :) do you know of any other good mono synths with syncable LFO's/frequency modulation?

@@elderchildren ooo lots of choice there - the Pro2 and Pro3 from Sequential are superb also if you want to have some serious fun you should try the Behringer 2600 ARP clone - it has clock in for the LFO and is totally bonkers

@@FracturedAudio thanks dude! that sounds sick, i'll check these out :)

Hmmm unlikely it is broken but you never know - try again and check that all the controls are set to same as the video

Did you ever figure out the problem? I am having the same issues.

@@AngryPenguin22 I know your message is 2 years old, but I guess my message might help anyone else that might have a problem. You need to check your tuning on the second oscillator because if it is just a wee bit out you can end up with beating dissonance that sounds like an LFO. He's also got a lot of reverb on the sound as well, so the release is coming from that.

@@adeisidaemon Interesting. Thank you for the update.

indeed !

Yes Ableton or Logic - usb midi works a treat

Yes indeed

thanks :o) .. i do need to do more !

MS-20 is a superb synth - fantastic filters.

Thank you for showing me a great band!!
