Sup Forums, what synth should I buy?
Any brand, preferably Korg or Roland.
Used if needed.
Something poly and analog that I can use to record directly into my DAW, also lots of wave shaping would be nice. ty bb

new minilogue
Christian Thomas
The MS20 is mono.
Get the Minilogue if you don't want to spend over a thousand. I think the best poly analog synth for a reasonable price is the Prophet 08 but it's pretty expensive for most.

roland juno is a good choice. But if you're not playing live, you can just get a soft synth. It'll be cheaper and perfectly functional.

I had a MS20 mini and it's fantastic for dirty, noisy monosynth sounds (this thing can really growl and squeal, the filters are fantastic) and the patchbay is great for experimentation but you'll get far more mileage out of the Minilogue even if it is essentially more basic with its modulation. Plus you want a poly so the Minilogue is where it's at.
I've got a Prophet 08 myself and I would recommend it 100 times but as the other guy said, it's expensive. If you can't afford one you could try getting a Tetra module which is like half a Prophet (4 voices) but with added sub oscillators.

What kind if synth should I get for chill ambient styles of playing?
I want something that'll give me those glassy sine notes heard on Kid A's title track.
Gavin Wilson
According to the King of Gear website, a Prophet 5 was used on Kid A (the track) so the closest you would get hardware-wise would be a Prophet 08 (which the band use for the track live) or a Creamware Pro 12 which is a analog modelling Prophet 5 clone. It's no longer in production so check eBay.

I was given an Arp Odyssey. I have no clue how to use it. Can someone point me in the right direction? So far I've hooked it up to an amp through a guitar cable but that's it. I know literally nothing about synths
Jacob Brooks
Actually it seems that Thom uses the Prophet 08 for the vocodered vocals on Kid A live so now I'm not so sure.
