Syntronik Juno 60 (J60) demo

J60 is one of the better in apps in Syntronik in my opinion. The sound at start of video is a multi patch I made by stacking 4 edited J60 sounds and various fx. Syntronik not perfect by any means but the effects section is prob best on any ios synth at moment

This does sound really nice. I think I’ve been confused by Syntronik all along. I was under the impression that all the instruments and their samples passed through a global set of filters which remain the same for each synth. But I see that is incorrect...? Modeled filters unique to each instrument?

Yes it is confusing because basic architecture of each synth is same they just have an overlay fir each to look pretty. You can use any osc with any of the modelled filters. Eg you could use roland juno osc and run through moog or oberheim filter then through up to 5 effects x 4 layers in a multi patch. The routing in the synths are fixed but there are syncable lfos for pitch, pan, rate, filter and a bunch of modulator effects and a slicer effect

Sounds lush in places. - and actually more versatile than a real Juno!

I used to love my Andromeda for its duel filter set up. I really like having the ability to send different sounds to different filters and then mix them to make the sound - that freedom is basically what we have here - the ability to send sound through varies filters and make a sound that way.

I do this a lot with my sounds in WaveMapper - use the three different OSCs and using the different routing options to sculpt the end sound. This is basically why I like Syntronik so much - you have different OSCs that can be sent through different Filters and use the layering of four of these to sculpt the sound.

Many people may look at the layering as ‘I take four synths and layer, yet think of each synth as an OSC and try layering the same sound with slight variations and different filters and you can make some phat cohesive sounds that gel together better than just 4 sounds layered.

Thank you for the clarity. Makes way more sense now. I’ve watched Doug’s excellent video demos on all the synths, but I’m curious which ones you’ve placed at the top of your list.

Thanks for this info.

ProV (Based on Sequential Circuits Prophet synths), Noir (MultiMoog/MicroMoog/Prodigy), Harpy 260 (ARP 2600) and J8 (Jupiter 8) and Blau (PPG Wave)

I am doing a demo of Blau at moment too

Just to add:

If using multiple instances with slight variations, it’s often better to switch off some of the fx - keeping each instances fx on (many of the presets are very fx heavy), can produce too much of a ‘soggy mess’ of a sound.

Beautiful job! Keep them coming.
