[@aoterou]

I guess weaver Beats was right… welcome back Scott I guess? I hope you don’t have to quit KZbin …. Yet again

[@glyndarby1715]

Woohoo you didn’t quit, looking forward to watching it mate 👍. Cheers Glyn.

[@Echochamber79]

Nice to see you back Scott! We all love what you do! you are a good man!

[@thomashammond]

Thank you for your positive come back!

[@revp01]

Glad to see you back, Scott. I appreciate your approach and your channel.

[@supersoundset]

Thank God you didn't quit! I'm so happy!! Thanks so much! Wishing you the best of the best!

[@ScottsSynthStuff]

Thank you so much!

[@devinbelangermusic]

Welcome back! Stoked you made this re-cap, gonna use it to catch up on Namm while cooking :)

[@CWoodOne]

So great to see you back! Looking forward to the next video!

[@clarkkincheloe412]

A big welcome back from all us non-trolls. You won't need to keep a rigid schedule of releases, just your quality observations and opinions whenever you want to put them out there is fine.

[@riquester1971]

Agree wholeheartedly. I was really bummed to hear all that happened before, but glad Scott is back!

[@emq667]

So glad you didn’t let the haters win, and very proud of this community for showing support. The appreciative majority are often too quiet. Thanks for coming back!

[@michel8126]

Happy you didn’t quit. Welcome back and greetings from Belgium. Can’t wait to see your impressions about the future Behringer BX1

[@hillblocksview]

Yes, sell the Opsix for the Multipoly sounds like a smart move, "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times..." Synth Samurai is a good guy and so are you Scott, welcome back!

[@davidreidy5750]

Thanks for not quitting,I dig your vids!🗽🛸

[@Bridg3_Baby]

hello Scott, glad to see you back online with a new video let me add a few details or things I don't ''fully agree'' with you : - first of all, as an Italian, I felt the need to mention the Viscount Legend One, a stage style keyboard, very interesting for that kind of users, announced just before Namm 2025 ( as a competitor between Nord Electro/Stage, Yamaha YC/CK, Roland new V-Stage ), since it didn't make it to your list - about the Roland V-Stage, it seems that the 3 engines ( v-piano, tone-wheel, and EP supernatural pianos ) have new programmable possibilities that are not yet possible for Fantom users ( I don't think they will update Fantom to this, to keep the two products separate, since Fantom is more synth related ) - about the Kord Multi/Poly, the version with 37 keyboard has a new keyboard, not the same as the previous models ( modwave, wavestate, opsix ), but I i have seen videos showing that the internal components reach near the full use with not so big 4 layer patches, so i would consider the vst than the hardware version ( in order to expand these ''limits'' using the internal components of your pc, and not the internal ones of the hardware version ) - regarding Korg Kronos ''3'', i totally agree with you, for what they offer as an upgrade compared to a full new model, who cares

[@Th3rdFloor]

Glad your still here,,,the community has got your back!!!

[@ph4g3official]

You’re back. Yay!

[@bigmac4948]

Thanks for coming back Scott. You're contribution to community is invaluable.

[@ryanjavens]

I am SO glad you are back Scott. Love your videos!

[@JeffPalmer83]

An element of the Kronos 3 announcement that is pretty cool is that they are bringing the updates and new sounds to original Kronos 1/X/2 users. Pretty rare to see updates for a once-discontinued 14-year-old flagship.

[@ilovecatsandsynths9702]

Glad you’re back! Some interesting stuff out of NAMM, especially from Behringer.

[@cpfaivre]

Good to see you back! You took a mental heath break that we all need every now and then. I enjoy your channel!

[@Whatisthis94]

Hey man. Love your stuff. I got back in synths after 40 years to intro them to my kids. Your honest perspective has been a goldmine. Keep it up my friend!

[@GODInTheWax444]

We luv ya Scott. Keep doing your thing! You are definitely appreciated bro! Stay breezy

[@DX_Bayls]

I am very glad that you are back Scott!!! Thank you!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@MosEisleySpacePort1138]

Yay! You’re back! 🎉Glad you didn’t quit. Your videos are great!

[@user-yn6zo4wp5b]

Good morning! Welcome back! Thank you

[@jmcoffin1]

Great to see you back! I loved your take on all these announcements, especially the Kronos 3 “nothing burger“ from Korg.

[@n3ver3nd1ng]

Never commented on this channel, but great that you are back! Very usefull content and you are such excellent and natural host/ presenter!

[@ChrisSchnyder]

[@Klaas-g3t]

[@rayjones-x7l]

excellent glad your back Scott

[@synth4ever]

Hey Scott, good to see you back! Thanks for all you do, keep up the great work!

[@RuudJeursen]

Great Scott, Iḿ glad to see you back online! 🙂

[@timb.4825]

Thanks Scott. Your review of NAMM 25 cuts through the sales hype and informs us with deep knowledge and experience from your own gear and time invested. It keeps me up to date with the new gear as i sit here in the heat in Australia. And yes i see Donner stuff on Amazon and i think they have some interesting new approaches to synth gear .. as you say, a brand to keep an eye on.. all the best. Thanks for your efforts.

[@echobenav8]

Thank you for making and sharing this. Appreciate you coming back! Just getting back into music after decades off (DX7 and JX-8P) and enjoy learning about all the new tech and gear from you.

[@tacitvrn]

So glad you decided to return. Your videos have taught me so much.

[@saysthetedd]

Any publicity is good publicity. Wasn't aware of you until the "drama". Now you have a new subscriber!

[@edmasters4454]

Good to have you back!

[@titovalasques]

Yay!! You’re back!! Good on you! ❤

[@MFitz12]

The lower front-facing controls on the Korg 700 were so they could be easily reached and seen by the player who placed the instrument *on top of* an organ. These were originally marketed as essentially accessories for organ players. The layout makes sense if you are sitting at your B-3 with the Korg on top. The Yamaha DX-1 was produced by hand to the tune of 140 total units and IIRC in 1983 you could pick one up (or perhaps Yamaha would build one for you if you were important enough) for about $14,000.00 (DX-7 was $1,999.99). Besides two DX-7 engines it had a 73-key weighted hammer action keybed with PAT, was easier to program from the front panel and it was perfectly sized to fit on top of your CP-70 electric grand piano (which of course you also had) - assuming you were strong enough to lift it up there. The MIDI spec was just as bad as the DX-7. Few surviving instruments still have fully functional PAT and if it ain't workin' you can't fix it. Parts are obsolete.

[@georgklein9911]

So great that you are back! Thanks for your videos!!!

[@vitaobassbr]

Nice come back! Love your content!

[@mrdali67]

The Kronos 3 is for existing users mostly that is concerned about their existing Kronos as there is no other way of getting a Kronos 2 repaired than to scalp another Kronos 2 if the Mobo or cpu fails, you can't get replacement hardware anymore. So it's reduced to an expensive but effective door stopper just like the Prophet-X

[@markusfuller]

I’m pleased you decided to stay Scott. I always look forward to watching your videos. keep up the good work.

[@terrycast]

The V-Stage is for people who don't want to deal with the complexities of a full-fledged workstation, but they still want high-quality sounds and enough flexibility for stage use without getting bogged down in endless menus. There is a lot of players like that, thus the popularity of the Nord Stage and other "stage" keyboards. These keyboards don't have the best feature/price ratio, but that's not the point.

[@jarnleikr]

Missed your videos, really glad you're back! 😀

[@fxdaly]

Glad you’re back, Scott

[@thehimer3903]

glad you are back!!!

[@vitale6633]

Excellent and Honest Summary Scott - I learned a great deal in a mere 24min. Your Synth room is awesome.

[@renetvedtpedersen5048]

Nice to see you back. I’m having so much fun playing synth, and have gotten much motivation from you. The Asm Hydrasynth I have at home is much because of you and your inspiration. Wish you continued good luck, and I’m looking forward to the future of your channel. Greetings from Norway.

[@aaronauclair]

Yay!!! New videos! Thanks Scott! Really appreciate you doing these.

[@richardcarr3172]

Happy to see this video in my feed

[@JensHolgerHopp]

You're back! Great! All the best to you

[@synthsei]

Glad to have you back Scott! I enjoy your honest reviews of gear and how you freely express your opinion about potential purchases. They are based on sound logical thinking and ideas. And even after seeing a lot of the gear at NAMM myself, you gave me some new information and insight on a few items that I wasn't fully aware of before. Please continue to keep up the great work!

[@garrettjrussell]

Glad you're back and doing well. To the future!

[@manofsound9098]

Scott, your back! THANK YOU!!! We love you! Glad you listened to your good viewers and subscribers. We are with you.

[@masterjoda75]

Glad to see you back man.

[@riseofthemachine2623]

I'm so pleased to see you back in the game. It is frustrating to see people like you doing so much for the love of synthesizers, only to get berated and chased.

[@soamericandad]

Welcome back guy! I was missing your friendly vibe and I'm glad to see you didn't let the nonsense get you down.

[@thevi_olin]
