WILD AND TWISTED! - (Twist fm at Superbooth 2024)

[@twisted-electrons]

Thanks so much Cuckoo for trying the TWISTfm and thanks for the video! It has 8 voices (provided by 2 fm chips and four stereo DACs). Each voice has its own multimode 4 pole filter with modulation of drive, cutoff and resonance. Expected to be available in October. More info soon! Thanks! 🥰

[@andreaaiazzi4501]

please give us some more information so we can start saving money

[@MrMusic238]

It has so much personality. Can't wait to get my hands on it!

[@marcnelson8986]

This sounds great, love the twisted stuff, have a couple of twisted devices 👍🏻

[@baconbigbeats]

Amazing device! Cost?

[@avrilcadabra]

Sounds like a beast, well done

[@Tripwelleverday]

I bought two segas ripped out the chips just to try it and I can’t believe how nice the mega fm sounds now it’s a must if u own any of the removable ym3438 chipped synths I can’t get enough of the sound I just love it thanks to twisted electrons for making some of the best synths ever made and they are affordable !!!!! the French guys are really great at the whole synth stuff thank you so much

[@ericfraser728]

So the OG chips in the Sega are much better than the stock replica ones?

[@Wyrmfyr]

​@@ericfraser728 they are not replica chips. They are also original chips with improved amplifiers. Distortion is still there, but less.

[@ToyKeeper]

I love how it's called Twist, but all the controls are sliders. Regardless, it sounds gnarly... which is a good thing.

[@therealajahn]

Beat me to it.

[@christinepaluch7967]

This was my favorite polysynth of Superbooth. It supports MPE! It's so fun to play with the ribbon!

[@digitaldobbie]

Hello Cuckoo, this is Dobbie. I am glad you reviewed this as I was looking for a new sound for my next album and this just so happens to tickle my synth bone. 11/10 🤘much love!

[@Old_Man_Jay]

Cuckoo! Would love to see you put out more content for the MegaSynthesis. I figured you’d be all over it since it’s the perfect tool to make sega style music

[@RSKT_music]

Thankyou for covering this! I've been waiting for someone to make a video on it!

[@stefevr]

I know you said it was a mistake but the stubble looks great! You look much younger haha Edit also the synth is fantastic of course!

[@Pyroific]

2:39 i love this moment haha your reaction 😂

[@Farold_Haltermeyer]

Yes and yes and yes and YES and YEEEEEEEESSS. Best thing I’ve heard from Superbooth. This is just pure ear candy. Thank you so much for taking the dive for us Cuckoo...VERY exciting

[@RealMisterScoops]

The Blast Beats has been my favorite piece of gear since it arrived in my studio last year. I can't keep my hands off it. Can't wait for this.

[@tr606]

The first thing you played with that distorted arpeggio and those chord changes, wow! that did something to me. This is a lovely synth and great video ❤

[@ropewalkingelephant]

It has so much character to the sound and it sounds kinda nostalgic

[@asynchronicity]

Such a chewy, characterful sound ❤

[@deyoungstar]

This sounds incredible! Thank you for the demo!

[@deyoungstar]

Twisted Electrons make my favourites synths!! After buying the MegaFm I sold the Prophet-6, Prophet Rev2 and never looked back. This new synth sounds beautiful! Can’t wait to buy one!!

[@christdolphin69]

now thats an endorsement

[@desktorp]

Forget the synthesizer.. that Cuckoo has no beard.

[@1980VINZ]

This thing is electronically alive........ Fascinating Cuckoo you absolutely needs one !

[@kgbinfo]

Loving the new look Cuckoo! Thanks for all the great superbooth coverage. I’ve got a few things to save up for.

[@MitoDeLaRoque]

looking forward to test it! sounds spectacular!

[@SlaserX]

This sounds beautiful, I love Twisted Electrons though ❤️

[@LudOverdrive]

A Blast Beats synth with analog filters ? I'm in ! Thanks for the preview

[@Farold_Haltermeyer]

[@SpeedyBunnyz]

[@SergioCamachoRico]

[@ianmathews]

I love their SID synth!

[@josephwright5921]

What is it called?

[@ianmathews]

@@josephwright5921 therapSID

[@Bobo]

Helt otroligt!! Dream synth 🥰

[@hillblocksview]

Seems like no matter what Cuckoo picks up to play, he _always_ makes it sound *CUCKOO!* 🤪

[@Tripwelleverday]

I really wish they put oscilloscopes on them it make so much of a difference with fm based synths

[@DanielDay-dv8uw]

Hearing a few omnichord sequences from DD/MM/YYYY in some of this

[@jamielong5877]

In your element there Cuckoo. Also what happened to the beard? You look about 12 now 😁

[@StupidRobotFightingLeague]

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your beautiful beard. Hoping for a quick healing.

[@riorattenrudel3907]

Looks better right now ;)

[@g3cd]

I didn't recognize him without the beard at Superbooth until somebody at Bastl said "Cuckoo is filming right now" 😁

[@Neurotypique]

I couldn't put my finger on what had changed until I read your comment!

[@YesItsReallyKeith]

anyone know what the device in front of the pedals is ? @2:37 thanks

[@christdolphin69]

need this

[@elieorjebin6919]

Hello, the arpegiator is in the modul or in the keyboard ? It sound great with this synth

[@aikighost]

Cuckoo has a real life chin? Who knew? ♥

[@shinokto3972]

i like it

[@Nova-TechnoLAB]

Who is this young beardless man? Did not know Cuckoo had a younger brother

[@jamesbowsher-murray128]

How is this different from megaFM apart from the touch strip?

[@christdolphin69]

looks like analog filters plus that sid style arpggiation or whatever. i'd like to know too

[@GurtTarctor]

Sound blaster chips. 2-layer 4-op + 2-op structure. Multimode analogue filter. Looking forward to seeing more on it.

[@truecuckoo]

The Mega FM is based on the YM2612 chip, perhaps most known from the Sega Megadrive from the late 80's. The Twist FM is based on the YMF-262, also known as the OPL3 chip, most known from the Sound Blaster sound cards from the 90's. The chips are similar in that they're both old FM chips designed by Yamaha, but they have different waveforms and operator capabilities, and can sound pretty different from oneanother in their pure form. The Blast Beats has the same chip. That being said, the added analog filters are EXTREMELY gnarly, and is sort of taking this out of the FM territory. It sounds nothing like the Blast Beats with the same chip.

[@MrThecarrott]

The presets did sound though very MegaFM. Wish mine had a filter though..😜

[@GurtTarctor]

@@truecuckoo Do you know how much polyphony this has?

[@dasczwo]

dude, soundblaster! 386 25mhz. that was the shit. can it do the dr. sbaitso voice chat bot? (yes we hAd that back then)

[@thejustingaw]

There’s just too much face in this video! 🤣

[@riorattenrudel3907]

It seems you are already twisted.

[@MikkelGrumBovin]

40 years younger without the beard ❤

[@manuelsirotti9340]

Cool. Can you decide the bpm ?
