[@Dognacity]

Ennio Morricone, for example?

[@markaprill6501]

@@Dognacity I thought the the original comment was referring to living legends…sadly Morricone is dead. I never really believed in best composer or greatest guitar player. I don’t think art is a contest, some attain the highest level but they are not alone. I heard a music professor speculating that the Empire March is the most well known song on the planet. So I Guess John Williams is the most famous living composer on Earth. I don’t think anyone is best but….Zimmer, Williams, Morricone …all legends…nobody is going to argue that. There are others too like Phillip Glass and Elfman that are quite successful. I certainly consider Glass legendary. Have a nice day.

[@RNLafferty]

I mean, acoustics-wise, it's probably standard-fair. But definitely not top in the country level, and almost certainly not the world. Think about it! Those computer monitors on their own could compromise the sound. The best sounding rooms are likely mastering stations.

[@enneff]

No doubt it has a great system but with all those flat surfaces there'd be tons of reflections that cause weird resonances. It's a writing room not a listening room.

Das ist Hans Zimmer

[@TurboLoveTrain]

@@CAS_Photography he may be an amazing composer but he over paid for his audio setup. I put A/V equipment on Oprah Winfrey, Michal Dell and George Lucas's private jets. Oprah has a Global 500, Michal Dell has several Global 500's and George Lucas uses a Boeing 727. I was also the guy that got Rockwell Collins to push through the FAA to let people use Cellphones on airplanes--the FAA allowed it because billionaires wanted to use their cell phones to control the TV in their 70 million dollar private jets. Not even kidding. The point is you don't need a 100k to make synth music this good--you need like 700 usd.

[@boodennyy]

@@TurboLoveTrain wow, amen

[@pilluritari]

@@TurboLoveTrain "he over paid for his audio setup" is such a dumb statement. You really don't need any money at all to make good music by using free synths. But the point is that you don't (or do you?) really know the reasoning for all those equipment and how much he even spent his own money on them. Maybe its just his hobby and he wants physically tweak all the knobs and stuff. Or maybe some specific movie project(s) needed some sounds and the fastest way to accomplish it was to get those.

[@TurboLoveTrain]

@@pilluritari How many 70million dollar aircraft have you installed in flight entertainment systems in? None? Got it, so you don't know anything important. He has all that equipment because he can afford it and enjoys using it--it doesn't make music any better than cheaper options.

Bought this yesterday after watching this and the preset runthrough. This is by far the most full, warm, and robust sounding software synth I have heard. I get really good sounds out of many of the VSTs and even digital hardware synths that I own, but this thing... it's otherworldly. I've been trying to get my hands on a Moog Voyager (Electric Blue!) for some time now but haven't had the budget (or the space) for one. This will absolutely satisfy that itch for now, and then some. BRAVO to all who hands on its creation.

Yea. I do not understand what they were thinking. I have a grand piano and am an experienced players but I could almost not press the white keys while playing darker sections. Yes the 61 has much nicer keys. Be real careful when upgrading the firmware. I also got a Kawai Novus NV 5S which just has an incredible S88 keyboard. I also recommend a Faderfox UC4 or MX12 for more knobs if you need those.

For someone who only uploads videos and doesn't show any creativity themselves, you should know that plugins or devices don't prove that you have ideas. the composition is important. Imagine, in the 80s many had the same synthesizers, DX7, Roland D50, the sampler EMU II that the big ones used. and: did they all sound the same? no. Creativity was required. but maybe I misunderstood you. you mean, I shouldn't buy the one that x can afford. I create my visions of my sound. tha'ts what I meant. nice day

[@WatchRayPlay]

@@THAMNOS I mean yes the sounds incorporate lots of modern elements, his work with Guthrie Govan is my favorite- but I guess I refer to his live performances like Live in Prague, as the Hans Zimmer Orchestra. And yes other modern composers in the genre are more straightforward classical, like Harry Gregson Williams.
