I think some of the sounds, at least earlier in the video, are better suited for sustained chords or single notes, not the busier parts played in this video. Great sounds if you're playing sustained parts. Some of the most memorable Solina sounds to me are ones where the instrument was put through a phaser, as on Jean Michel Jarre albums, or a flanger, as on "Dream Weaver". It sounds like internal effects in this VST version are more limited and things like phasing and flanging would have to be added separately in a user's effects chain.
Hi Pink Buddha, Huddini here, see as I have a Force, this VST I look at the whole set of instruments from the Force as VSTs... But thanks for putting this one under the loop... I haven't until now even played with it , ran a couple of MIDI note thru it and didn't find anything that has caught my attintion yet, but you never know...
Hey pink Buddha ? When purchased can Fabric and all that be used with the force too? I’ve used Solina on my force a ton and I love it but fabric and especially the fabric epiano seems to blow the currrnt electric piano out of the water
Pink Buddha Academy the question is will it be included all nice like mellotron solina and Oddysey had been in the last update or will they cost what they’re costing individually rn because I’ll drop 500 on some new synths for my force but if they were free that’d be amaaaazing
This was painful to watch because you refuse to test playing the bass registers. You have seem to have a fixation with 2 specific middle octaves and you rarely go outside that. Maybe get an 76-key keyboard and please stop doing this, it's frustrating.
@@PinkBuddhaAcademyWell, I hope so for them, because it doesn't really stand out as far as I'm concerned! Even Jean-Michel Jarre doesn't use these sounds anymore nowadays! LOL!

My favorite of the current crop of string-machine VSTs … really scratches the itch, lol.

Good points
I had an Arp Solina. Sold it for $200. Wish I had it back.
Damn....right?
@@PinkBuddhaAcademy Yeah, that and a '73 Strat I sold for $350 were two of my biggest regrets.
so many interesting plugs that could be ported to MPC standalone but they went and acquired Air of all things :shrug:
🤷♂️
Id like to see Akai reach out and lift up some of the more deserving designers like Szabo and Sonic Charge
Interesting idea

Hopefully you hear some sounds you like in this demo
Playing through every preset on the Odyssey synth: ua-cam.com/video/XD3Rxu8UXyA/v-deo.html
most of the Air stuff is pretty awful
Have you heard the mini D, or the OPX4? Those really great. I have reviews of each of them here.

Not yet....but when the next force update comes, it'll be there. That's the pattern. The force just gets everything delayed.

Yeah, these don’t sound NUTHIN’ like what the presets are titled… but this is some POSITIVE ROCKIN’ 80’s synth pop master blaster FOR SURE!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
haha - preset names are so funny sometimes

Lol....this comment made me laugh. So thanks for that!
The sounds sound like they are designed specifically to be used along with effects because they are very flat and without dimension.
I agree
All the presets seem to sound similar to me!
Lol...well, it's a pretty niche plugin. Really all about strings.

Audio seems mono not stereo
It was. I made a mistake in the final video, not the recording.
