Cover Story: Analog Supermodels
MP3 examples of the synths reviewed in our Cover Story for August
Korg Electribe A: The factory Patterns, which can rewritten by the user, make good use of the instrument’s limited resources.
Korg MS2000: Thanks to the miracle of physical modeling, the MS2000 sounds warmer and fatter than some real analog synths I’ve played.
Red Sound Elevata: The 12 dB-per-octave filter sounds a bit thin and anemic.
Roland JP-8080: Descended from the JP-8000 keyboard synth and first introduced in 1998, the standalone module focuses firmly on emulating an analog synthesizer by means of physical modeling, and it does that very well.
Roland SH-32: Although many of the timbres are appropriate for throbbing, in-your-face dance music, others are fine for styles that are more traditional.
Yamaha AN200: The AN200’s analog-modeled architecture is simple and straightforward, and its sound is warm and fat.
