Korg MS-20
Sadly mine is in pieces right now but when I get it back together its gonna be amazing....I hope.

it will be, I used to regularly record at a studio with an MS20 in the control room and we used the filters, envelopes and LFO for all sorts of shit even though that band didn't use any synths in its music. It was su much fun patching those vintage Korg effects into the console and giving bass or guitar the 'synth' treatment!

I used to have three Mini Moogs in the studio. One was hooked up just for distorting and filters.

Its an MS 20... (mini) whats not to love?
yes. an original ms 20 would be choice but i love my ms 20 mini.bass layering is great with it. the growl u can dial in with it is so rad. i also use it for alot of leads for my retro electronic tracks. i use this thing lot of different jobs.

Nice classic, modular synth
This one is a classic. Loving the fact that you can modulate for hours, and that every extra cable or knob twist gives that tiny bit extra. However, I must admit that I rarely ever use this in production sessions. The low end sounds pretty nice, but generally, I feel like you would rely on post processing too heavily in order to get the sound you desire.

A deep, powerful, and slightly noisy synthesizer.
An extremely aggressive sounding synthesizer that doubles as a complex signal processor. It can do so much but always seems to sound up front and in focus, so it's flexibility isn't as deep as it may seem on paper. The original MS-20 was my first analog synthesizer.


Worth it for tracking oscillators and filters from analog external in. Plus the rest.
(Used to own, but not an option)

GOOD!
THE LEGEND!!! For myself - its very soooooby sound from...

Not the biggest fan
Its cool but i haven't spent enough time playing around with this synth. Maybe in the near future

Blends well
Fits with so many tracks..it is one of my favorite synths.

Filthy Analog
This is a great synth, very dirty, lotta options lotta routes to go to get a lot of character, and can produce some fat low ends. What I like to do the most with this synth though is run midi into it with a arp sequence and route it into it a analog delay with short time, the results for me are ussually a really dark gritty cinematic sounding arp great for build ups, or gluing a groove all together.
