UNO Synth Pro Review, Tutorial (+intro download)
Added 2021-04-29 05:35:56 +0000 UTCHi!
It seems like IK Multimedia is out to prove a synth can be priced at "Behringer territory" and still pack a punch - the desktop UNO Synth Pro costs $400 and yet has three analog oscillators, two analog filters and an analog drive, alongside digital effects and digital control, including the ability to save presets (the keyboard version costs more but has the same exact internals, just a full size keyboard and mod/pitch wheels)
At that price, something's gotta give though - and in this case, the tradeoff is direct hands-on control. That said, UNO Synth Pro pulls off a few interesting user interface shortcuts that make navigating it fairly quick.
There are a few bugs and quirks, hopefully, they'll address these but regardless, the end result sounds pretty good in my opinion. I recorded all 128 presets and sequences at the end of the video - so you can judge for yourself!
Have a great day!

Via the body of work on your channel all those weird machines seem a lot less frightening for beginners — like myself.
