VONGON REPLAY Polyphonic Synth & Arpeggiator | Can I write a synth-pop track with it?!

Man, I just love gear that makes you approach writing differently. That reminds you how fun it can be to find new sounds and feels, explore new ways of composing. And today, the new Vongon Electronics REPLAY is doing that for me - a super fun, approachable, compact polyphonic synth and arpeggiator.

This likely won’t be the most “synth purist” or most impressive demonstration of the REPLAY - BUT I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to just dive into the deep end and see what I could come up with.
By starting with synth, I immediately began thinking in LAYERS. Chordal foundation, bass layer, some frilly arpeggiated layers, and then complementary snappy guitar layers. In some ways this is really freeing because I stress less about the melodies and simply think about what the next layer will be. I’m not a keys player (could you tell!?) so I left the staccato melody to the guitars and kept the synth fairly elementary. BUT - it works! …well, at least I dig it.
Check out the new REPLAY at Little Box if you’re looking for a new tool to take you in different sonic directions. It’s super fun, compact and very approachable. Oh - and it’ll literally fit on your pedalboard if you want it to ✌🏻

So cool!

[@AmbientEndeavors]

it's fun ! for us "guitarist turned synth hack" it's quite approachable, but a really venerable polyphonic synth in its own right. And I love the aesthetic vibe Vongon captured.

[@persywho5863]

nice Andrew. might be my next purchase from the shop

[@AmbientEndeavors]

love it man! I've been trying to find a compact synth that is versatile and robust, while still approachable and convenient for the studio here and this one checks a lot of those boxes.

[@wheresallthezombies]

I love these “cheap” sounding keyboard sounds. They’re so cool

[@DelScully]

cheap sounding? Where? Also its like 900 usd lol

[@LoVeAmBiEnT]

$900 tho. Hydrasynth explorer for $599. Call it a day. There’s vintage analog synth patches for it. They can easily be had. If you don’t like to dig deep and edit sounds This thing is just way too much and it’s still virtual analog. I love Vongon, but they’re asking twice the price of what it should be worth. In my opinion.

[@LoVeAmBiEnT]

Dreadbox nymphes and a Keystep $550. Just curious, where did they get the price tag from? I would say for $500 and it would be perfect. On a positive note I always love your videos. Great music always wonderful sounds

Have to agree. This is for folks who have money to burn
