I’ve cycled though some amazing mono/polysynths that I’d have loved to have kept for their individual quirks and character. The Matriarch and the Sub 37 spring to mind. However, the Pro 3 took their place and has been retained. That’s telling. While I don’t pretend it’s a matriarch replacement in character and use, the Pro 3 is perfectly designed. It’s like a Swiss Army knife and is feature rich yet easy to use. More than any other synth. (Including the Prophet 5 (I have the 10 BTW) it’s all of Dave Smith’s knowledge distilled into one synth. It’s fantastic.

I’ve owned way too many synths in my time, Starting with Korg dw8000 in 1986. I have traded or sold so many and currently I’m owner of Waldorf iridium, Korg prologue 16 and….PRO 3. The most infectious synth I’ve ever owned. It has multiple personalities. I owned a prophet x and a prophet 08 and I never bonded with either. There something in the overall tone that never grabbed me. Not so with pro 3. You can get so many sounds out of it and the sequencer is so easy and so flexible. A pretty substantial feat to say the least. It’s a huge huge value for the money! I can honestly say I’ll never part with it. I don’t think I’ve ever felt synth heaven before. Always something missing. My three synths are SYNTH HEAVEN.

Some of those are redundant now so I need to find some time to clean up. I guess I'm a bit of a hoarder because it pains me to sell some of these. One I will never part with is a Roland SH-3A. I haven't had a chance to do so yet but want to compare the Roland SH-3A to the PRO 3. They are both mono but approach the creation of sounds in quite a different way.

A fair review. I really want one. One thing re: oscillator panning though - in order to individually pan oscillators, you need to have stereo filters for them to run into. Considering there are 3 different filters in the Pro 3, doubling each of them would probably significantly add to the cost and complexity. "Pan" (of the whole sound) is a mod destination though.

A feature i'd love to see in these digitally controlled mono synths sequencer/arp section is the ability to randomize full patterns, note lengths and/or note velocity as well as unusual pattern legnths to create constantly evolving patterns. But then be able to use these patterns as a modulation source via the matrix. Like the Virus TI2 arp section. The happy accidents that come out of that are unreal and soooooo much better than manually programming each step.

Also, love the quick workflow for sculpting sounds and performing manual modulations.

Currently using a Microbrute and a Blofeld, mostly, with an Atmegatron plugged into the Microbrute as an extra oscillator, and a Korg KP3 added for effects. Also a Digitakt for drums. Sometimes a Microkorg XL. The Pro 3 would replace the Microbrute and Atmegatron, and allow me to move the KP3 to the Digitakt where it'd be more useful. Don't really need the Microkorg any more either. Some songs with this setup are on my channel. I'd suggest "Easy Does It" to see the overall setup (dawless mode, a bit old) or "Four Chords Explored" for something more recent I made as a proof of concept for multitracking a monosynth.

@@ToyKeeper I like anyones thinking that the Pro 3 can be the main studio focus. If you dont mind me saying in your situation I'd sell everything except the Digitakt. Buy the Pro 3, then if you like Elektron, buy Elektron Model:Samples, then get Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol A25 25-Key Smart Keyboard Controller to sit next to the Pro 3. The A25 would connect to the Model:Samples as you create leads and pad samples off the Pro 3 to run with the A25/Model:Samples setup.

... I'm confused. Why would I want to downgrade from Digitakt to Model:Samples, and downgrade from my existing keys to an entry-level 2-octave midi controller? I tried the Elektron workflow for a while, and it was nice for some things, but I found it mostly just got in the way for songs longer than a pattern or two... so I switched to Reaper. That's why I'm considering a nice monosynth now, since I can arrange audio clips instead of being limited to just midi. I might also consider selling the Digitakt eventually, since I no longer need its midi sequencing features and I have three other drum machines. Anyway, not planning to sell the Blofeld module. It's way too useful, and does exactly the things a Pro 3 can't. A multi-timbral digital poly is a good companion for an analog mono.
@_User3334 жыл бұрын
@@ToyKeeper I wouldnt call it a downgrade it would be a tidy-up and keeping only essential devices assuming you have limited space ie you are considering it as "primary or only synth" thats why I asked if you already have a setup or not. My idea on the sampler is that your only synth will be the Pro 3 which you would create samples of leads and pads in Reaper and load them on the sampler playable via the A25, simulating a second instance of the Pro 3. When you go DAWless you have your preferred drum machine running in sync with the Pro 3 and the A25/sampler you play the leads and pads.

Nice review thx! No real time note recording is the only thing preventing me from buying. Work flow killer. Hopefully in a firmware update.

The sounds are amazing. Can someone briefly explain to me the difference between the Pro3 vs the Prophet 6?
@googlingthevoid Жыл бұрын
Pro 3: monosynth, deep modulation Prophet 6: polysynth, knob per function

😳 That’s quite the price hike for a piano hinge and a couple of pieces of wood.

Looking back i wonder if that wasn't due the lumber shortages starting to kick off and the price of wood skyrocketing

Is the filter cutoff knob response really lagging like it looks in this video? It looks to be really really slow to respond.

@happylittlesynth3 жыл бұрын
This might be just silly user error, but when assigning the tri lfo to cutoff, and having cutoff at zero, it doesnt fully open the filter to 100% and back down again...even with depth at 100%....am i doing something wrong here? (tried googling but didnt find any answer)

Very different idea..I used to have one, but a Waldorf KB37 with your own modules is more interesting and powerful. But I have a pro 2 because it’s an internally routed modular.
