Hi all,
I know there are a couple posts out there on this topic but they don’t cover some questions I have on the topic.
I am wondering if A4 can cover most territory of the minilogue xd. I own the xd and love the sound of it, but I am interested in the a4 as a replacement for multiple reasons.
I don’t like the knob per function on the XD and not knowing where parameters are relative to the selected patch. I would rather have elektrons menus for patch editing. A4 also has a solid overdrive from what I can tell. A4 has better lfo assignments and more specific design with envelopes etc. I am hoping that A4 can create some nice bass lines including some 303 sounds while also having polyphonic chords to be used at the same time. I don’t really want a 303 clone because they take up room and only fills one function in my eyes. Many factors are making me consider A4 and selling my XD. There are also not enough a4 videos out there to demonstrate the a4 to its full extent imo.
My main question is will I regret selling the xd for the a4? Can A4 achieve similar sounds (and hopefully more) as the XD? I don’t care about the instant feeling at this point. I like shaping sounds and editing later.
I can’t have both. I could possibly buy a prologue later in life but I have no room or money to have two analog poly synths rn.
TIA!
