UDO Audio - Super 6 workshop @SchneidersLaden

George from UDO Audio presented their new synthesizer Super 6 in a workshop at SchneidersLaden. Enjoy the exploration of this fine instrument and the excellent jam session.
The Super 6 is a 12-voice polyphonic, binaural hybrid synthesizer. It is flexible, powerful and refined with a gorgeous analog sound character. Rich and evolving textures can easily be created via the Super-Wavetable core. The results are shapeable using the binaural analog signal path and the flexible modulation system. All in all a very interesting synthesizer for all kinds of electronic music.

The plan was...I´m just going to buy all the behringer synths, soon has he touch the keys...nah, just going to save money and buy this perfection.

[@TomSaouz]

That was the same for me !

[@PureAmbientDrone]

She's a beauty for sure!

[@dudeseriously79]

Absolutely.

[@dmomcilovic9185]

This will be worth more money in 15 than all the behringer copies put together

[@b.h.gargantua301]

At the end I kept a single synth from behringer only (td3 maffez mod) as build quality was crappy and knobs/sliders usually too small. However I will give ubxa or b-monopoly another try.

[@adrianbaker9262]

Granted the synth sounds amazing, but this guy is an artist, this is not a demo he’s giving, its a concert. I would buy tickets to see this guy perform. Man and machine in perfect harmony.

[@mathieupe666]

When the Maker/Demo guy actually can play...

[@InderNett4tube]

I got mine today (in fact it was yesterday) and the rest of the day (and evening and night) went like that demonstration: I completely lost myself!

[@juno6]

This synth and company have a bright future!

[@RyanFromUltrasound]

This is the best sounding polysynth I've ever heard.

[@deanbr6ndo70]

No.

[@RyanFromUltrasound]

@@deanbr6ndo70 Well, actually yes - I must not have heard something you're familiar with. What do you think sounds best?

[@deanbr6ndo70]

The System 8, I love the old classic sounds that are usable.udo is nice for ambient textures but it seems to be the same sounds thats being created.its proberbly just me.

[@RyanFromUltrasound]

@@deanbr6ndo70 Yeah the System 8 is rad. I was hunting for a Jupiter 8 for a long time as it's my favorite Roland synth by a wide margin. This demo of the Super 6 is definitely limited in scope, but I'm extremely impressed with the filter quality, fpga versatility, and the binaural effects. I'll have a clearer opinion of the Super 6 when I get my next job and buy one.

[@deanbr6ndo70]

@@RyanFromUltrasound one synth that had caught my attention is the korg opsix, looks pants but sounds incredible.oh and the arturia polybrute.

Refreshing to see an actual live performance. Very cool. And the Super 6 sounds fantastic. The future isn’t defined by features but by what you make with what you have.

[@kabood777]

There is no doubt that this will be a classic.

Over a year old and i still listened to the entire thing thinking how bad i want one of these Super 6 beasts.

Just imagine how you’ll feel on your second birthday ;-) Superb synth.

[@crescendoapre9705]

Fcking brilliant !!! the sound of this synth is just amazing !!! i have no words ... my ears !! the low end has so much presence, not agressive like a banger, fat & yet lush, pristine ... i can't even imagine playing this Super 6 at home ... i start saving now ;-)

[@spazkong]

I'm thinking Bach, Mozart, Chopin, Debussy, Brahms, Beethoven, Schubert, Gershwin. The list could go on forever.

[@ettorefritz]

really enjoying this performance

[@macronencer]

This is THE most delicious-sounding polysynth ever, certainly at its expected price. I have a MatrixBrute and an SH101. I now have to add to my list a Super6 and a C15 (which I recently discovered). My bank balance isn't up to this... oh dear.

[@electricsnut]

I wish people would stop hating on this synth just because they can’t afford it. Just respect it for what it is and the fact it exists. This is the start of another company who will become legend for the new generation just like ARP, Oberheim and Moog.

[@maconins123]

WHO hates on that synth? It’s amazing.

[@Musical.Maze.1]

Fantastic demonstration! Great synth!

[@nathanbell6962]

Someone needs to recognise this guy's talent

[@Ariocarpus2000]

Beautiful demo! At first I thought 'What?! No Reverb?!', but it seems the binaural feature and phasing lead to a very spatious sound that does not specially need a reverb. Very interesting synth, way above my current budget sadly, but one to keep an eye on. It would be the blue livery for me :-). The improvisation of Georges is a pleasure to listen too. I appreciate the choice of no screen, it forces the developers to think carefully the front panel. Four octaves does not seem to limit him achieving amazing highs and lows. Anyway, this synth must be a joy to play and discover.

[@hairyrichardson8921]

PLanned to demonstrate it for 20 minutes but instead went into 40+ minutes of evolving soundscape ... well worth the listen and far better than 20+ minutes of talking :D

Hands down one of (if not the) most luscious sounding synths this year for under 3k. George, you and the team nailed it. And... It supports an MPE controller (Roli) ? Please..... count me in ;)

[@athaphian]

It actually does support MPE. See the sonic state interview, he talks about it! .. also this is the most luscious sounding synth this year for any amount of money.

[@ilpolentonebergamasco7929]

@@athaphian I agree. I really need a polysynth and I'm struggling between rev 2, this and summit

[@X22GJP]

Three years on and I read this…what did you end up getting? I’m eyeing up similar but of course now we have the Super Gemini with its bitimbral lushness. I know a lot is the artist and engineer playing, but these are some of the most inspiring synths I’ve heard in a loooong time.

[@N-trepid1]

Snag that Super Gemini (two Super 6's in one) if you can. MPE, Ribbon, Poly aftertouch, wow. UDO will hit this studio one day--hopefully soon ;)

such a great synth......just hope they can come out with a less expensive desktop. nice that he waited to get it just right before releasing, can tell George takes pride in his work.

[@ageshero]

Beautiful, genuinely wish it was a little more affordable, but epic... very cool.

[@bilonggrisimmeri]

Wow! Timothy Scott's comments here raised some heat. My observation on UDO Super 6 is about how man of mystery George does the same KZbin presentations. When Nick Batt gets his hands on this synth, we will finally discover if it does oscillator sync, ring mod, makes massive bass like a Minimoog and of course PWM. It's great tease marketing, if that's UDO's plan. So far, it seems sort of like a pared down Novation Summit with superior hardware. Maybe a better analogue filter?

[@zookiebudeck3428]

2 digital O's and you expect a massive Moogie Bass Sound…🙄 Don't know why everyone is expecting this sound when a new synth arrives on the planet...🙈 U.D.O. is more Rolandish! George sad this in another interview. You may realize this also on their used names (Company & Synth) and all the other demos. And don’t get me wrong, I like sonicstate and what they do. But I think you have to understand the Super 6 as an instrument what you put under your armpit, arrive on stage and take the audience and yourself on to a journey. Knowing where it started but never know when and where it ends… I think or better hope that the Super 6 is the best combination of both worlds: analogue and digital, where you perform live with instantly produced sounds. Can’t wait to put my hands on it. You can build your sounds on the fly without hours of menue diving. That might be the reason to have a synth without a display. And the sound is IMHO fantastic. You have to give this synth e.g. Jack Duxbury from Andertons. Leave him alone for one hour and see or better hear what he does. Nick from sonicstate is more the tech guy. For me not really necessary for a decision about the Super 6. Read the specs, put your hands on it and you will find out that there are Pitch-Modulation, OscSync, Crossmodulation (FM) and PWM for Osc2 and many many more 😉 And yes, here is George. But not from Bristol, from Germany 😁

[@bilonggrisimmeri]

@@zookiebudeck3428 That's the brilliant thing with KZbin gear reviews, you get many different takes. At this point Super 6 is unfinished, so UDO may think it too soon to have reviews. That said, I'm not convinced this is the synth for me, plus I already have mostly Roland gear. Maybe an FM synth such as Kodamo , Yamaha MODX or even Elektron Digitone. Thanks for commenting and Happy New Year.

[@FrigginMossies]

This is the best sounding synth in ages. I love it. But as I live in Bristol also can I please have a free sample😂. I promise I will cherish it.

[@MBEG89]

Im gonna get the desktop version for sure.

[@all41n14lla]

I'm a guitar player and I want to put synth up against my Two Sunn Model T 150W amps with 4 cabs and crank the stuff'ns out of the amp .. When I achieve orbital velocity theirs no telling where I will go ! .. That organic warmth the amps give and at the edge of distortion .. Oh yeah ..

[@megankniffen]

about 35 minutes in is a great moment(s)

[@dirkkeersmaekers4343]

After 20 minuter,there are still people in the building,it must be a interesting synth:-).

[@syrus3k]

This is sooooo cool. Hi George! :)

[@timmbrockmann959]

Great instrument, I think I´ll buy one. Love the Juno-esque panel. Only critique would be regarding the keys; they overlap the casing and have ugly looking grey bars left and right - they could have been integrated more smoothly into the casing. And 5 octaves would be perfect for a synth like this, with a focus on playability... bit of a shame it only has 4 octaves.

[@andycarrillo48]

You have any recommendations for a synth keyboard...I like to rap and sing so so, so simple melodies is my fit rn. I like vintage sounds. Saw a video of the hydra synth too..... looking for good sounds.

[@hairyrichardson8921]

3:54 ... "probably do about 20 minutes" ~ 41 minutes later , coming back to Earth and unfortunate reality .... I'm just listening to this all again because it was go great - now going to listen with headphones on

[@buddhistsympathizer1136]

Sounds really beautiful - Should be really proud in what he has created here. My only criticism would be the look of the control panel - Some parts with cream backgrounds and others without makes it looks a bit strange IMHO

[@chriskelvin248]

It's remarkably scary how in EVERY video I see of this guy demo'ing his synth, the first keypress gives me the willies. This sucker might just have hit a critical mass of design with its simplicity by dogma, lushness by full implementation of its stereo signal path.
