Thanks a lot! That’s some food for thought for me.

I wish I hadn’t sold it before I bought the Digitakt (well, I had sold it to fund the DT, so… :wink: ).

I sold it 3 times and bought it 4 times. :joy:

The last one, I’m gonna keep it.

I had bought it once, got the second one as a gift :slight_smile:

I really liked it, but I could not find any way to include it in my setup, so I sold it twice.

Cheers,

Nord Lead 4 and A1 can change instantly between 4 patches if you use the 4 midi slots separately (and there’s 4 audio outs).

OB-6 is pretty fast too, but not as fast as the AnalogFour/Keys.

Subsequent37 is the slowest in the entire universe.

Also I’m fairly sure there are some poly synths/apps that can complete the envelope of the previous sound after you make the change. Really nice & I know I’ve encountered it but can’t remember where! Maybe the Micron?

Yep, the Kurzweil K2500 definitely plays out the previous patch envelope + fx when switching sounds. Cool ability.

Se-02 is pretty nippy, 99% it gets it right

1 prog change on every trig (total of 16 trigs on 1 bar loop) at 120 BPM.
All good :slight_smile:

Plus it does it multitimbrally so you get the decays
