Al Krow Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 As this is an analogue synth, I'm assuming it doesn't do presets or is that not the case? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all of them obviously, but the capability is old technology. Take 5 has 128 presets. A bit stingy, but better than nowt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, it has 128 non-overwritable factory presets too. It’s too few for me as I burn through loads when designing sounds and making incremental saves. I’ve already maxed out two synths’ memories. Unfortunately Sequential doesn’t offer its own librarian software so preset management is still a bit of a pain or requires fairly pricey 3rd-party software.

You might notice some of those videos are about using the presets 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iove just brought a new ipad as im getting more and more in to using soft synths.. its amazing how things have come on since the old days. Quality is right up there with hardware synths now. A cheap midi keyboard and an iPad is more than usable as a gigging rig if needed. Got 3 gigs in Nov. This will be my first time on keys since around 1993. Ironically the last time was with a Yamaha keyboard, and this time will also be with one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
