Critic Reviews

Analogue Systems RS200 & System 8000

soundonsound.com

The Analogue Systems RS8000 is a robust and versatile modular synth, praised for its unique features and excellent build quality. While the RS200 sequencer within offers creative rhythmic possibilities and a standout "Skip In" feature, it's limited by its 8-step sequence per channel and lack of MIDI compatibility. The System 8000's standout design, with a beautifully crafted walnut cabinet, makes it a desirable choice for professional musicians and studios alike. Despite some quirks, such as unquantized CV outputs and unusual trigger configurations, the RS8000 is seen as a smart investment for those who appreciate high-quality analogue systems.
