Yeah, I know this is a perennially resurfacing topic but a lot of those comparison threads are pre-mkII and pre-OS 1.30. That’s my excuse for starting a new one.
I’ve had the MD, in some form, for around 10 years now. It’s a great instrument, as everyone knows, but I’m a bit tired of it and I’m not using it as much as I used to. I’ve tried a Digitakt for a few months but it’s taught me that I’m really not that inspired by using samples. I much prefer synthesis. On the MD I only really use the TRX machines and a couple of FM ones… which makes me think that the analog synthesis part of the Rytm might cover me for pretty much all the sounds I tend to use. Most often just kicks, snares, hats and noise.
I’m pretty confident that the Rytm’s kicks are great but how do the snares and hats post-OS 1.30 compare with the MD? Are there any other shortcomings with the Rytm that I need to be aware of?
Thanks in advance.
