I can't seem to find lists of presets of either synth online anywhere. I remember many of the presets (from both the 01w and X5) providing plenty of material of this nature. I am looking at these modules ONLY for atmospheric and ambient content.hypnotic pads, evolving textures, alien landscapes, rich new-agey strings, heavenly combinations of sounds, etc. I've heard a few demos and they sound pretty similar, but I am not sure which one to get. I've been looking at the 05r/w and the X5dr. I have, however, been feeling a bit nostalgic for some of those otherworldly Ai2 pads and textures and want to buy a small Korg 1/2 rack for my home studio. I parted ways (with both) many years back for various reasons. Plus just scrolling through the presets can inspire you to create things with those sounds (also, a lot of rack synths are going to have Pianos, and Strings, and more realistic acoustic sounds than you're going to get out of a lot of hardware synths more designed to do things like just analog subtractive, etc.I owned (very briefly) an 01Wfd many years ago. I'd see them simply as extra gear you can pick up cheap, and won't cause any issues with space already in the desk you're going to use, and when you want those kinds of sounds, you've got them. Plug them in, they're there when you want to use presets, and get to sounds unique to those devices and still use your VSTs and any outboard monsters you want to. Here's what I would do: Fill up the rack with rackmount synths - maybe a Furman Power supply, and then an audio interface or line mixer. So I agree with the others, it is menu dive-y.īut, at the same time, you have 10 million presets to choose from :-) But for the basics that CC messages can handle, you can at least do that. You can of course set up controllers to control them - and pretty much have to if you want any significant control - but also you can't really "program" or "sound design" from a controller unless you get into SysEx messages or there's a software editor you can use. Had a rackmount Audio Interface with enough MIDI ports for all of them too. I built a MIDI lab with Omnirax (Presto) desks and we had a Fantom, Motif, TX802, and then each had a single unique synth - Emu Proteus, Korg M3R, and so on. In fact, if the LCD screens go bad, or the battery that stores presets dies, you can still use the synth via MIDI! If you're a preset player, or make patches and save them as presets, and don't do a whole lot of fiddling while playing live, other than maybe on one synth, then a rack full of synths is genius.
