In fact its quite a favourite with a lot of 'idm' artists, Aphex uses
one loads, he filters most
of his drums through his synthi or his Korg ms-20, they both have a very
distinctive filter.
In fact the synthi was on the front cover of the early Mo-wax record
Major Force West 'The time has come / Martian Economics" it has a great
little
modulation matrix which looks like a game of battleships....erm space
battleships!
I want a synthi.... if you had one id kill you for it (this is aimed at
everyone BTW)
even though the synthi is one incredible machine(i would love to have
one myself) definately dont underestimate the ms-20. i use it to warp
sounds by running it through the filer section like a lot of people do.
i have had incredible results with it. a great piece, and seriously
undervalued. get your hands on one if you are looking for a monster
analog synth. i sold an arp 2600 recently because i couldnt afford to
keep both that and the ms-20, and the arp had to go. i found that given
the choice i go back to the korg everytime. it may not have the name
recognition that the 2600 or synthio has, but dont count it out.
