Gotta make an acknowledgment at 4:27. I was tempted to shout out “BLIND, BLIND, BLIND, BLIND, BLIND!” When I was 17 in ‘97, I was given the follow-up to this model, the QS6. It was my first synthesizer, the main reason why I’ve still got it as of June 2024. If I had been more discerning, I would’ve chosen a more expensive model that had better fidelity. What was it about the QS6 that only sounded a fraction as good as this, especially regarding the rock piano preset at the beginning? That sounds infinitely bigger than the grand piano sounds in the QS6.
@jameshancox1
@jameshancox1 3 ай бұрын
You can't beat a bit of talking heads. The acoustic piano is not the strongest point on the quad. The EPs though are very good. From what I gather the qs6 is a scaled down version of this. I have never played one, so am not an expert. I have owned this since about 97? It is quite unique in the way the sound design works, probably the closest thing is Ensoniq. But both units have very different sounding sound roms.

They do indeed sound good in a retro-nostalgic kind of way. I wonder how we could use them in modern sampler plugins in our DAWs, or if they were licensed in a way that they can only be played back from Emu hardware... most of us wouldn't have any.

It's the DA converters and the inbuilt synth engine that really makes these shine, EMU were purchased by Creative in the 90s I'm surprised they have not done something with them? There is the Emulator X and there is the arturia Emulator 2 but they do not come close to the hardware. Also, there are around 22 actual EMU libraries and over 100 3rd party libraries, so I dont know how that would work?

The argon is really quite unique and is possibly my fave synth ever. It has over 50 wavetables including VA and also samples of vintage analogue which are morphable. It also has 9 morphable filters and oscillator modifiers which are unique to modal synths and killer effects. It also records all moves via midi to daw. I love the hands on nature of the programming which is intuitive and quick also the joystick is great for live.
