This is exactly what I want a synth to sound like

"It sounds distinctly haunted, like broken dreams, fading memories, or whatever that girl listens to when she's studying"
This, here, is the content I'm subbed for.

Thank you for this presentation. However some notes. That knob which you call detune is originally chorus control. It has switcher in ccw position. Chorus itself has one bbd delay line with constant clock modulation, and knob controls the depth of modulation. The switcher of this knob switches both delay line and direct channel throuh 2 LPFs because delay line can propely work in the limited frequency band. That's why the timres sound a little bit doll in this mode. So to hear original sounding you must not only set the knob chorus in its minimum position but also switch it off with the click in ccw position. I see that you never switch it off.

When you pull up to the 80’s synth party, and everyone’s got a DX-7.
You pull out your Maestro, and everyone crowds around you.

Now I wanna see a whole Sovietwave piece done exclusively with USSR instruments.

You definitely need to get hold of some Soviet guitars. They're so cool and just as aesthetically pleasing.

Звучит прелестно. Звуки закрадываются в душу. Это прекрасно.

Hainbach covers a forgotten synth, he smiles, he loves. The price goes up 500% We love him for it regardless.

Some countries add instant flavour to stuff: if your food is Italian, you know it's gonna be good. Same thing for German beer, Japanese cartoons, American invasions, you get my point. So whenever I read the word Soviet next to Synthesizer, I know it's gonna be juicy, and I'm never disappointed! I'm actually planning on having the panel on my Roland Gaia substituted with one that has cyrillic writing, I can read it so it's not a problem, also it will look cool as shit! Great video, stay safe.

I loved that there's not too many options. I'm a firm believer that restrictions breed creativity. And I feel paralyzed with too many options.
It's all about making the most with the tools at hand. Creative problem solving

It has a Bladerunner vibe, haunting, noisy, depressing, futuristic and retro at the same time.

[Lukan]

Он звучит будто из советских мультфильмов, которые я смотрел. Он звучит так холодно, но стоит тебе пустить его в душу, как он становится теплым, и пусть музыка написана в миноре, ты все равно чувствуешь себя счастливым.
It sounds like from Soviet cartoons that I watched. It sounds so cold, but as soon as you let it into your soul, it becomes warm, even if the music is written in a minor key, you still feel happy.

You played the first sounds and I was already in love

[DJ-Ophidian]

This whole machine sounds like it's playing back from a VHS.

[Theinvalidmusic]

Now watch as this synth's price absolutely explodes on Reverb in spite of Hainbach's cautioning

[tomikokki]

Polivoks filter is just one of the most awesome filters ever made. <3 This was so nice demo and I absolutely love the sound of the whole unit.

[solomanhaunt]

I love how it sounds like a degraded tape recording all by itself! Beautiful synth

Countdown to Arturia adding MA3CTPO V in V Collection 12.

MIDI-mod is a thing, i had it made for me by a local master here in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. He also changed couple of presets to have a long (fixed) attack for more ambient stuff.

Why is that Soviet and Italian synths and drum machines have so much more character than the usual fare? I mean, not only in sound, but it design and aesthetics. Makes them so attractive to me.
