Ultimate Vintage String Synth Comparison

The Ultimate String Synth Comparison. I’ve got my hands on some of the best stringers ever and decided to give you a little side by side comparison. I played three different excerpts with seven different string synths - ”Basic strings”, ”Full strings” and ”Dark strings”. You can easily compare the sound character of each synth. The first two excerpts are pretty straightfoward, but the ”dark strings” involved a little bit more sound design to see if the synths can be pushed to produce more mellow kind of pad sounds straight out of the instrument. The samples are not complete dry but they all have the same amount of delay and reverb. The instruments are (in the order of the audio track) as follows: -Korg Delta -Korg Trident (mk1) -Korg Lambda -Roland RS-505 Paraphonic -Arp Solina SE-II by Eminent -Roland RS-09 Organ/Strings -Waldorf Streichfett Unfortunately I couldn’t include the Yamaha SK-20 here because I sold it before recording these. It has quite a unique sound
