I’m building the new Tauntek poly61 mainboard right now. It has some new features like midi, a 2nd LFO, new waveforms for LFO and VCO. All parameters can be edited via midi cc. I’m probably going to make a video for it.

is there any modern synth that can be as good as the JP4 ? what about the plug in?
@Bernd_Bruening9 күн бұрын
I can’t think of any hardware synth that comes close to the JP4, except for the Roland plugin/plugout recreations. The Cherry audio plugin is great as well and has the RE-201 tape delay/spring reverb emulation already built in.

En la apertura de filtro hay gran diferencia, la modulacion no está calcada, pero no significa que no me guste la del UB... Es un gran trabajo, no se le puede quitar merito, pero hay diferencias notables en cuanto a crudeza del sonido, claridad de sonido y brillo. Para la diferencia de precio y tiempo en el que han salido, es una pasada como suena, la verdad.

Your first videos on the UB-Xa, when it was still in testing phase, are what put it on the radar for me. Once it came out I was a bit disappointed by some of the flaws it showed in the wild. Then Behringer released the so-called 2.0 firmware release, and it was this video that made me finally bite the bullet and get one. When it arrived it still had an older firmware version, and one of the 16 voices didn't behave as it should, so my initial impressions were met with some disappointment as well. Then I installed the new firmware, and loaded up your patch pack, which I had bought right after ordering the synth, and lo and behold - what a monster! Absolutely love it now. It might not have the exact same feel in the mids as the OB, but I'm expecting that to be easily solved in the mix with the use of some tasteful saturation. Thanks for your time and effort you put into this synth, I'm very happy I got one!

The UB is good sounding poly synth and is in the ballpark of the OB. Great value, but overall the OB is better especially the filter and envelopes. Really the UB is 85 to 90%. If you were playing live and switched half way through most including me wouldn’t notice the difference. Maybe on a solo track with good headphones. I would be completely happy with it. At times I even prefer the UB.
@davlippo724 күн бұрын
I have a question. I bought the desktop version of UB. I have it MIDI'd to a Yamaha M8x which has PAT. I noticed only a very few voices do anything using the PAT and I'm wondering is this the case on the keyboard version? I know the M8x is sending PAT signals because the Brass patch works as expected & PAT transmission is indeed "ON". I went into the PAT controller options under "MOD" on the desktop and got a similar result that only a very few of the many MOD options have any affect using the PAT. Next I'll try the PolyBrute 12 and see if anything changes. I noticed the UA has MPE which might be even better.
@Bernd_Bruening23 күн бұрын
You have to determine amount and destination of PAT in the mod matrix. I can only speak for my sounds (the first 58 sounds in bank C having SK as extender), but among these there are a few using PAT.
@davlippo723 күн бұрын
@@Bernd_Bruening I tested it on the PolyBrute12 and back to the M8x and I got the same result (The PB12 PAT is probably more responsive however the Montage is a 88 key piano action so it's not a synth style keybed) and if I wanted my patches to work using PAT I had to assign something useful to most of them myself. Yamaha did the same thing on the Montage, they really didn't have many presets actually using the PAT so I had to do it myself. Now the PolyBrute 12 uses PAT it extensively in comparison. Some say the Oherbeim is a players keyboard while the Arturia is more cinematic, w/pads and endless changes in timbre.

For those wondering about the panning differences, I just got the UB-Xa and did some experimenting with the mod matrix. You can do quite a bit with the panning there ("spiral" setting), and re-attacking the same voicing moves the pan around in a pleasant way if that's your thing. Superb!
