Thanks for finding that Unifono.
Nick (at 22:49): I don’t think i’ve come across a synthesizer where so much synthesis is so near the front panel.
I like Nick’s pace when he does reviews. Sometimes he’ll dig deep, and other times he’ll mention stuff briefly and move on. There’s a lot to cover here, and so the 30 minutes here was a quite a bit of the later. But where he does dig in, like doing that super thick patch near the middle, was very nice,
RE: Using the Hydrasynth as a controller.
Knobgoblin – Did you see this recently released video from Perfect Circuit? Since they sell both the Hydrasynth and Black Corporation’s Deckard’s Dream – they put the two together and just like you suggest they’re using the Hydrasynth as a PA controller.
I really like the spooky Halloweenish patch on the Deckard’s Dream, played starting at 2:30 on the video.
This video would also be a good test to duplicate to see how much you could do with the Hydrasynth by itself?
I think i know what you mean, but you are listening from a wrong angle
That can be said about any synth I think. Even an analog synth can sound bright and thin. We can turn down the filter if its too bright or use an EQ.
I think it has real character.
Great vid by Nick as usual. I love that envelope looping he does from around 20:00.
Hmm but you think the Peak/Summit sound thin and tinny too, which couldn’t be further from the truth. What are you listening on?
Listening to Nick’s video now. He’s really digging into the oscillators - without effects. And because he’s Nick yes he does try out PWM. 
The raw oscillator sound should give a reasonable indication if it can do the sort of “analog” that you’re looking for or not.
Damn. I just watched the sonic state video. To be honest I already knew that I was going to have to buy this synth, but now it would seem there’s no turning back for me.
The filters sound great to me. They really do. There are a lot of options, and it seems there are a few that have a whole lot of character. I really like what I’ve heard so far.
I noticed that it seems all of the mutators have wet/dry controls. This impressed me, I think it’s a really nice touch. I’m always looking for subtlety with synthesis, so I really appreciate that detail. Essentially it means you can have all this movement and morphing going on, but blended with the more static, initial waveform. That’s really intriguing to me.
The more I learn about this instrument, the more I get the sense that it was designed with my tastes and my sound design workflow in mind.
I absolutely have to buy this. Great work ASM 
Huh. Neat. Or is it annoying?
Oh well you’re listening on nice speakers and cans. Maybe it’s just the utube quality, things always sound much different on there versus live.
I get the same. Some tv’s and USB chargers also drive me crazy with high frequency noises
After watching the sonicstate video I actually really like the layout, looks fun and fast and sounds awesome. I’m wondering what’s inside? The very last part of the video was pure animal crossing.
Oh man, we are soulmates. Me too. I hate that sound. I ordered a Soma Ether to explore this hidden sonic Galaxy though…
I find the Interface quite confusing. I don’t get the mutator function or the wavescanning. Nick and also Loopop very quickly go over these. Guess its a very deep Synth. I missed a Posting probably, is the Manual already online?
Oooookay, now it sounds very good indeed. Is Nick just using a better audio interface than everyone else? 
I see this as an operation on oscillators, before the filter does it job.
PWM, FM, AM, all these would be mutators in ASM language.
I rather like it. Just miss some kind of replicant somewhere.
I shouldn’t have watched Nick Batt’s video. I knew I would regret it.
Even the filters sounded rather ok… So many possibilities! Well done ASM!
Yet I don’t need another synth in my life.
Actually, this synth sounds like it could replace my prophet 08 and nord lead, and than add some 
I am thinking, bass mono analog synth , digitakt , analog four and hydrasynth could be a nice little but powerfull set up 
i like to play instruments, but i think the hydrasynth could be the first synth i would actually be happy playing using keys. Looks like it is very expressive. I like the sound of synths, but i always thought they are unexpressive when you play them, more or less. They are never like guitar or acisstic piano, which i like to bang on for fun, but never record them, because i like the sound of synths better. This synth could be it for me, in the terms of playability more than anything else. I think synths are generally lacking that factor of “touching” the sound physically.
And thats the beginning of GAS…
Hm i understood the prefilter Modulator/mutator Option for one Osc. But can i use one Mutator for one Osc or for all three? And Nick mentioned Something Like that mutators can mutate a mutator?
I need to find the Manual…
Oh. Yes indeed, I might have heard something about ring mod between oscillators. Good point.
Not only that also something about stacking wavetables …without demonstrating how to do that.
PWM is nifty implemented, but somehow i didnt caught the differences between the different modes.
