Studio Electronics SE3X | First Look | Thomann

[@djquantize]

Sounds like Moog and Juno had a baby and the 2600 was in the closet wearing a spiderman outfit.

[@flashgordon4558]

Nice comparison 😂

[@J-Hz]

lol i wouldn't be surprised, since the original SE1 was a moog "clone" and they also made one with Roland

[@kiickinballistics]

@@J-Hz yep the original (which is exactly the same as this btw lol) had the plug-in cartridges, MOOG, SEM...and one other I can't recall.

[@StudioElectronics]

Love this! Just discovered it. Starts cooking with gas around 9:20. Thanks Maestros! And one more edit-I think. You guys are tremendous-thoughtful, informative and entertaining repartee (& earnestness) throughout. "...of course black, I like blue..." Suppressed chuckles at end understood.

[@WARDISWARD]

Namz of the tabletop rack stand please

[@Projacked1]

Honestly, I think SE can do SO much more with basic synthesis. But, it does sound very good....if that's enough for me? How flexible is it?

[@Phil-1]

Well I like it.

[@FastRCToys]

Are you from Studio Electronics ?

[@Phil-1]

@@FastRCToys No! Are you?

@@FastRCToys I like it.

[@DayflightTrok]

What is so interesting on this device for the extreme high price and device volume? The Behringer 2600 do the similar for 699€?

[@aqueous5099]

Ha, good one, really. I use the SE to bring life to the 2600.

[@77advanced]

Oh guys you just ruined demo of one of the best sounding modern analogue synh ..

[@Sicolirics]

Cuando vayais a hacer una demo de un producto molestaros en hacerla bien, esto es una chapuza

[@ReasonedWhistle]

Studio Electronics is my favorite synth brand :) they are amazing!

[@rodriguepellaud]

why the price is so high in Europe ?

[@FastRCToys]

I think the price is high everywhere, even on Mars...

[@rodriguepellaud]

~1000$ more in Europe

[@digitalduch1111]

@@rodriguepellaudImport-Tax in the EU 😉

[@rodriguepellaud]

@@digitalduch1111 I bypassed the taxes

[@sunnyschramm9650]

serious? just the room-sound and not a mix out of the mics and line-signal from the synth? WOW xD

[@ThomannSynthesizers]

It is in fact a mix of line signal and mic but we gotta admit, the final mix turned out to be more on the wet side :D

[@tanoi242]

lousy demo on a wonderful machine

[@MrArpSolina]

I don't care about this quite uninteresting SE-3X, but this Triad-Orbit synth stand under the SE-3X is amazing! I have been looking for such a stand for years! (can't find it on your site unfortunately)

[@kiickinballistics]

Is that you Bob? "Mr ArpSolina, Mr Bob ArpSolina."

[@lsliewhite]

In my opinion the se-3x is the best monosynth ever. Look into it!

[@jriceblue]

Hah! Perhaps you jest, but I have two of those in my studio and I am constantly using them. They are actually pretty great for synths (and drum machines). Not perfect, but for the price, they are excellent. I can't find the *exact* stand I'm using on Amz, but I see something labeled--horribly--a "DESIGNA Metal Mesh Ventilated Adjustable Laptop Stands Computer Notebook Holder Stand Riser" which is basically the same thing.

[@rodriguepellaud]

maybe the guy should learn how to use a synth before doing demos

[@Unison_Detune]

Videos with sound recorded via mics is really a bit shit, especially for synths. You would have expected better from Thomann.

[@maquettemusic1623]

It doesn't actually do anything new for $2199, more of the old same.

[@mrotaveria]

+1

[@kiickinballistics]

Exactly. It's the same synth they made back in 1995! Seriously :) (look up Studio Electronics SE1)

[@FastRCToys]

Is this a joke ? 🤢🤢🤢🤢

[@kiickinballistics]

It must be a joke LOL. SE-3X...c'mon they are pulling our legs.

[@motorhead9356]

Sounds amazing, very similar to my 25$ Ableton plugin :>

[@ThomannSynthesizers]

As with most things nowadays, we (luckily) hit the point of diminishing returns really quickly. From there it‘s just about getting those last 5%

[@motorhead9356]

@@ThomannSynthesizers yes, don't get me wrong I actually have a lot of hardware synths and enjoy the way I can interact with them but VST world got so much better in the last years.

[@acefstripe]

@@motorhead9356 I have had two Studio Electronics Boomstars and they are excellent analog synths. admittedly, you want understand unless you play live not thru KZbin compression, etc..

[@belmo2587]

Misleading comment. Anyone who knows computer software at all knows it's ran by hardware called a computer and you have to upgrade your hardware (computer) every few years to be able to *properly* run the software. Especially as they are able to make software so much more powerful year after year. I've seen many people spend $1500 to $3500 evey 3 to 5 years to be able to stay current and properly run the software. Then you have the cost of the software which almost always has monthly rent built into it. Then you have to pay extra for all the plug-ins. Then all you're doing is sitting staring at a screen clicking a mouse. I would much rather play an instrument.

[@kiickinballistics]

@@belmo2587 you hit the nail on the head. Agreed.

[@kiickinballistics]

2699 Euro! No thanks. I had the original Studio Electronics SE1 back in the mid 90's and this is the SAME SYNTH, looks and architecture...and that was too expensive also.

[@StudioElectronics]

That’s how we got off the ground. Best, MSR

[@lesliewhite7027]

Worth EVERY penny!

[@protectorproteje1021]

jajaja ay mas de musica Reflecion

[@suga4all]

I like the sound and the versatility. But honestly, its waaayyy overpriced. You get the same for a fraction of the money from the same company. Just watch out for the SE-02 (distributed by Roland). If you want paraphony, have a look at Behringers Poly D.

[@kiickinballistics]

It's a 1995 Studio Electronics SE1 they dug out of the basement.
