@aciduss Sorry, but these demonstrations are probably intended for people who would use it for music that exploits actual music like melodies, harmonies, counter-point and such. Not for those so-called electronic “musicians” that are unable to compose anything more complex than a primitive pattern repeating over and over again.

@keybdwizrd Sorry i just watched this from the official Mopho site so I was a little disappointed by the demonstration since i would use it much more for music that really exploits modulation, analog sound, filters and such.
@aciduss I play what I play. These videos are demos of *me* playing my synthesizers; you are welcome to make your own. Just my opinion.
No offense but for a synth which is filled with electro like presets, those riffs and sequences you play seem totally inappropriate for promoting the synth. Just my opinion. Cheers.
@skipdimple No onboard effects.
does the unit have on board delay?
this still has a too digital edge to it’s sound , its mainly the enveloppes that make it sound too ‘pinched’ , too hard sounding too , it has more arp signature in its sound than classic prophet , for that price you might better be of with (an also half digital ) roland jx10 or mks70 , those sound much smoother and warmer
@keybdwizrd yeah, i understand. i was very lucky wih my price.. a store had the few first for 50 % off… and besides it was a good price before the sale. so i got mine for 800 $. was lucky, it was the last one
@Soadtt No, but I would like to try one, and believe I’d want one if I did. But $3k is pretty steep, especially considering I already have a few of their soft synths.
hi keywiz.. tried out the new origin yet?
sounds good…but this ugly design is a shame
analog is the best
Very different. This will give you a true analog synth sound at a bargain price. The LP gives you that true Moog sound at an expensive price.
This or the little phatty? Or no comparison?
@d3p3ch3mod3 the mopho is not 8 voice…the prophet 08 is 8 voice, however.
@keybdwizrd look for it, i would love you to do a demo of it!
the micron that is… mopho is just one note at a time all the time.. but its analog so
its 8 voice so you can either hold down 8 keys, or turn on unison and have up to 8 voices per note (that you can detune as much as you want) or in setup mode have multiple patterns or arps going, and drums as long as there aren’t more than 8 going at once unless one has some unison on then if you had a two voice sound the rest of the voices could only add up to 6
@d3p3ch3mod3 ,,,, can you play more notes at a time on the alesis micron?
The knobs are almost a deal breaker for me. DSI seems to use bad rotary encoders even on the higher end stuff (prophet 08). It is frustrating trying to turn down the cutoff quickly only to have it go up instead or just barely respond. However if you want a small, inexpensive, midi controllable 100% analog synth, its worth it.
Haven’t seen one yet, no…
hey keywiz.. did you try out the new TETRA?
Thanks! This synth really does look like it is well-built which is a good thing because construction quality is important. The better it is built, the longer it will last.
Build quality is fine, as is paint job and knobs, which are plastic. Seems like people question build quality on any synth less than $2,000. In the budget price range, manufacturers are trying to balance build cost vs affordability. I haven’t seen any reports of people breaking these things.
