I love string synths, one of my favorite synths ever is the Trident, which is essentially a Polysix packaged with two flavours of string synth. I really like the direction you went with these jams, they ressemble the kind of music I usually listen to a lot!

[@AudioPilz]

Thank you so much! I really have to check out a Trident

[@hullhistorynerd]

@@AudioPilz It's a beautiful sounding thing. A good friend of mine used to have the Trident MkII and the analogue flanger makes the "Trident sound" in the same way that the chorus makes the "Juno sound". It is massive though. Invest in a small crane before you get hold of one.

[@AudioPilz]

Ah, I have to give them a shot

[@Gainn]

@Mister Scoops I have a 'Fett too, but for in the box stuff the Deputy does a fine job. The sweeping between instruments is what makes the Waldorf fun, plus I really like the reverb.

[@2dan4me97]

their Korg Sigma plugin also serves as a good ARP Pro Soloist VST, oddly enough

[@djshire1984]

Love Fullbucket synths

[@Scottzilla1970]

I find it interesting whenever you review something I actually own. I've had mine since they were released and yes it can sound a bit thin. But if I turn the volume down low and stack it with a string sound on my Prophet 08 it sounds more like an effect and you can get some epic strings happening especially if turn the registration knob slowly while playing chords.

[@AudioPilz]

You had me at Prophet 08;)

[@coconutlust470]

Sold my Rocket, but can't make myself sell this guy. Sure, you could probably get the same effects from a VST, but the idiot-proof layering + reverb + chorus brings me back every time. Specifically, in your rocket/digitakt jam, you absolutely nailed what's fun about the Streichfett. Love me a big knob that goes crazy places.

[@AudioPilz]

I liked the UX quite a bit!

[@lo-firobotboy7112]

I've coveted a vintage string synth for the decade. I looked at the Streichfett a few times but was never quite sold. This video makes me want to have a another look. That said, I've been very happy with my Behringer VC340 and vintage Yamaha SK20.

[@keykrazy]

Fellow SK20 owner here. Those two presets we have in there are purty cool lol, but i've also wondered about this Streichfett for quite a while. Glad to see AudioPilz's take on it -- I don't need any more synths these days but it really is nice to see how tweakable it is, as well as the wider range of tones than i'd imagine.

[@lo-firobotboy7112]

@@keykrazy Very true. As for the SK, I feel like if it had some kind of connectivity it would be a much better known synth. I've only had mine for a few months and have been surprised at how much you can squeeze out of the polysynth section. I like to push mine through a handful of cheap guitar pedals.

[@meneerjansen00]

You might want to wait for the Behringer Solina then. Their clones usually are quite good, affordable and an exact copy but with one or two additions that are very welcome.

[@adamismonster]

I have a Crumar and love it. This machine is too thick and the effects don’t really emulate the detuning on a string synth. I had planned on buying one of these when it came out until I heard it.

[@AudioPilz]

Certainly no substitute but nice instrument still

[@AudioPilz]

Have a nice weekend!!!

[@technicalfool]

Hey I got one of these! Mostly wanted something dedicated to pad/drone FX and it does those really nicely so, job well done for that. I wasn't looking for any specific vintage sound, just wanted the little loops and bleeps I sometimes throw together for effects assets and bgm to be a bit more filled out. It's definitely not an all purpose device, but I don't think I'll regret getting it.

[@AudioPilz]

Agreed, great for drones!

[@tomaszmazurek64]

It's one of my favourite hardware synths, the first instrument where I eventually bought a second one after breaking the first (and I still have the first one in case one day I find the time to fix it). I have played a good bit with various string machine emulators and even got the Behringer's VC340 to get closer to "the real thing" and the thing about vintage string machines is they are often way more impressive to listen to, then they are to play. They are kind of a one trick pony, usually having one or two good, full sounds but the other sounds feel just like a cut down version of those good ones. And there is probably a bunch of bands from the 80s who have used that one good sound to death, so don't expect to sound original ;) For that reason even if Streichfett doesn't sound exactly like the analogs, for me it actually wins on tweakability. If somebody likes the string machine sounds (like me) and likes tweaking the sound and making it "yours", they will probably like Streichfett more than an actual vintage string machine. What other Waldorf do you plan to have next on the show? Maybe Pulse 2? (nah, just kidding, I think it flew too much under the radar to be actually hated)

[@AudioPilz]

Mmmmmh, Pulse 2? Let me take a closer look;) Thanks for the suggestion!

[@ynnn991]

@@AudioPilz @Tomasz Mazurek The Pulse 2 deserves to be hated for its display alone. :D Other than that it's quite a decent synth I guess.

[@meneerjansen00]

Funny you mention the "one trick pony" argument. I just wrote a reply arguing the same thing. That is: the Streichfett may be cheesy, incomprehensible in it's settings and unclear about what actually happens under the hood but a one trick pony it is not. Turn a knob a little bit and you've got completely new cheesy 70's phaser fest. ;)

[@SameAsAnyOtherStranger]

Waldorf is one brand that seems to know what it is doing when it comes to defining what a synth should sound like as an instrument. My ego brain says- give me a synth with infinite capability and I'll figure out how to get the sound I want. While the rest of my brain says- just give me instruments that sound good. Then they get into a big argument about the best way to get the sound of acoustic instruments while I glitch out imagining I'm firing sparks from inside a Tesla coil. Waldorf's products are definitely innovative and their outside the box designs fetching the prices they do is probably a good indication of their value. When I'm ready to get back into synthesizers, and get my brain melded with a new piece of gear, I'm hoping for a Studiologic Sledge 2.0 which has a Waldorf sound engine.

[@AudioPilz]

[@Firing_Order]

I'd complain that you didn't get nearly nerdy enough, but the Stringers are almost an endless history lesson with regards to music, electrical engineering, and culture. Seriously, if you're even slightly electrically aligned, reading about how divide-down synthesis works, and why these digital and analog approximations rarely ever sound right... it's a fascinating journey, leading me to start collect these divide-down oscillation devices. Alas, since the Italians never were known for their build quality, many of these units may never be repaired again. I have an Elka Rhapsody that has a shorted out transformer, and a crumar (branded Univox when sold domestically in the states, amusingly enough) that has a few bad chips. All unfortunately unobtanium, leaving me as one of the few curators of their magnificent legacy on the history of music. Probably a little pretentious. I just like Tangerine Dream 🤣

[@AudioPilz]

Nice collection!!!

[@Firing_Order]

@@AudioPilz HAH! I forgot to finish my thought. The Crumar is a Compac Piano. Not a string synth, but basically a super thin, pinky sounding synth not unlike a Nintendo or something. Edgar Winter is most famous for using it, with many advertisements in magazines at the time featuring him and his Crumar. It's not a great synth, honestly, but they're still able to be had for less than $300. Loved your jams with the Streichfett though! Very inspiring, hearing those sounds used on something you wouldn't dig out of your granddad's record collection hahaha.

[@ncapone87]

I have a Crumar Performer sitting in its case in the closet. It needs to be fixed but I'll probably never do it but I don't want to sell it, either.

[@totaltwit]

This synth nerds is the reality. As lustful as these old stringers might appear, pushing up a fake demand (prices) these units do fail. I repaired one recently, was lucky and found a chip replacement. It's easy to have a non-working (and un-repairable item) - check on ebay, people selling non-working, "for parts only" - units where many of the unobtainable parts have been salvaged.

[@inthefade]

🤔 Wait-- IS the entire intro tune a metaphor?? ...Oh man, I've NEVER been this late to a Bad Gear upload (argh...life), only to find the most beautifully esoteric vocoder shout-out ever! 🤯 Thank you, kind sir!

[@AudioPilz]

No worries, thanks Rocco!

I am now sure with this video that we always use the same equipment! This channel is always bringing my gears to the table! Am I a bad gear hoarder too?

[@AudioPilz]

Nothing to be ashamed of;)

Jam 2 was giving me some Jean-Michel Jarre vibes. Didn't know if anyone else thought this. Great episode as always! :D

[@AudioPilz]

Thanks!!! Yeah, I was listening to some Oxygene recently;)

[@TokyoScarab]

@@AudioPilz I actually have been as well. It was pretty fresh in my memory haha

[@KattKirsch]

I'm shocked at how good this sounds! Now I'm suddenly tempted to scoop up the one I saw cheap 👀👀

[@AudioPilz]

Certainly worth a try!

I own one and love it. The strings section has some great sweet spots. With a short envelope, I got really unique bass sounds, good for d&b, which one wouldn't necessarily associate with a string machine.

[@AudioPilz]

Yeah, it's surprisingly modern-sounding

[@Pablo668]

If nothing else the sound is interesting. I kinda like it. Great vid as always!

[@AudioPilz]

Thanks!!!
