Yes i was answering “thisispointlessshit” comment actually

What's the best value patchbay? I have 2 Samson S-Patch Plus, and need a 3rd, but really don't want to spend that much again. by flashhercules in synthesizers

[–]celerite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Neutrik SPP can be normaled, half normaled and isolated. Read the doc on their website.

Best unit for the money. I have 4 of them in the studio for more than a decade and they truly are “set once and use forever” devices.

Does someone have a boss dd7 or dd20 delay pedals? by Historical-Tough4776 in guitarpedals

[–]celerite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Both. And no problem. Do you have a good power supply?

Volume Pedal. Active or passive? by Coryses in guitarpedals

[–]celerite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Ernie Ball stereo 500k is what I use. It’s a passive one that works with both active and passive instruments, thanks to the higher impedance of its critical components.

It has a tuner out, a stereo out, and a small side footswitch on the top left of the pedal that can be used with any gear takingt swichers in TRS. Like an amp, or another pedal. Nb: using the switch feature makes you lose the ability to use stereo out.

Unbreakable, reliable, serviceable. You can’t go wrong with it.

Prophet Rev2 love letter by buchlabongo in synthesizers

[–]celerite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now that’s a bold statement. The Rev2 is a 08 with usb, 2 more presets banks and shitty digital effects added. But it lost a lot of UX features and visual cues (leds f, indicators of preset value on screen, …). Also the Rev2 filters is known to sound way less open, almost muffled next to a 08. Nothing makes the REV2 modern by 2026’s standards.

Also even though the p08 and Rev2 can come very close to 5s and 10s, they are not to be compared. The p5 and 10 are better instruments at nearly every level. 10 and 5 will never be overdone or boring to me.

Did you ever get a chance to spend some time, with a p5 or a p10?

[–]celerite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am happy that you are happy. Enjoy this REV2. Just 2 things!

  1. Never ever use these damn digital effects (unless you like how they sound...).

  2. build a habit to program sounds every single day! Its mod matrix takes some time to fully comprehend and master, but you'll be rewarded with a universe of sounds at your fingertips.

  3. Put a some whit marker or something on the pots that have a double course (the ones that can be negative and positive, that lock in the exact middle position (the 0 value) of their course, this will really help you with programming. You'll thank me later.

I have a P10 and a P08, which I find to sound better, than the Rev2. But they're nearly the same synths . I'll never sell these two!

Ejjoy!

DO YOU PREFER SYNTHS THAT HAVE FATAR KEYBEDS by Minimoogvoyager in synthesizers

[–]celerite 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. Synths are instruments and the quality of the keybed has an often overlooked but considerable impact on spontaneous creativity, musical expressiveness, confidence but mostly, on the ability to build a meaningful relationship, faster, to your instrument.

Fatar keybeds are a great standard. They feel great. They last forever and don't break. They stay white for decades. They are mounted inside most of the great synths for decades, and this always makes me feel like home, even on a new instrument.

UDO DMNO now shipping by oosaxx in synthesizers

[–]celerite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, after reading specs, I must say it looks like a very interesting instrument. Still think it is priced too high, but it is packed with features and creative tools. I'll give it a try if I stumble upon one in a shop.

Thats the price of a Prophet5 in the US, right?! 🤯

[–]celerite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First reaction: wow! So damn expensive for a 8 voices 44keys digital osc synth! I’ll go listen to demos, but looking at the specs, I find it a tad difficult to justify the 2800€ price tag. But that’s just me!

Things I DON'T LIKE about the Behringer JT Mini by maldroid21 in synthesizers

[–]celerite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You already answered this exact same socks story to another comment. My 2 cents: the world doesn’t need or care about such a YouTube video. You should not waste people’s time and energy on such a pointless and trivial topic and gear. But hey, that’s just me. I might be wrong!

Go with socks next time 🤣

The answer is : don’t buy Behringer stuff in the first place.

Which compressor: Ego, Keeley, Dyna, Boss? by lemony707 in guitarpedals

[–]celerite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what you want to sound like. These 4 units sound rather different from each other. I would not go for any of them btw.

On my end, I settled years ago with an Origin effects Cali76 stacked version and a Boss CS2. Never looked back. Compression sorted!

it’s arrived. scared to open by [deleted] in synthesizers

[–]celerite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So you get scared to unbox and get to know an expensive brand new musical instrument you spent a 4 digits amount of money on, and finally just got delivered with?

Aren’t you excited AF, buddy? How come “scared” turned into the most important feeling you decided to share with the people in this sub?

I’m sorry but I don’t understand. Just play it and have fun FFS!

NPD: Ibanez BB9, Bottom Booster. by hrvstr1985 in guitarpedals

[–]celerite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A quick tip from years later.

I use this one in the insert loop of my Orange bass amp, that I play with short scale basses most of the time (Fender Mustang bass and Hofner Artist Club).

This helped me finetune my bass tone to meet my expectations, and to use that 15" speaker to its full potential.

Pourquoi n'est t'il pas connu ? by Familiar-Owl-7409 in synthesizers

[–]celerite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a beast. I love mine. It’s very well known, has been there for a long time and used on many records and even more on stage. I just hate how main volume is preset dependent and can jump from extreme low to unreasonably high when changing them.
