Vintage Synth Explorer

Quasimidi • Sirius

Actually most knobs are dedicated to patch editing. It has a welcome new feature, a modern vocoder! There are also 8 control knobs for setting various mixer-type settings (level, pan, fx send). That's right, it has effects on board! It's got a great sound too! Choose from basic categories like 'bass sounds', 'dirty bass', 'pad sounds', 808 & 909 kits and much more! There's plenty of memory (96 user patches) to store your own creations. The filter and envelopes are flexible and sound very good.

Also taken from the Rave-O-Lution is the incredible pattern-based seven track sequencer with part mutes and tap-tempo! A truly useful dance music production synth capable for demanding studio use and creative live performance control with excellent sounds and a funky new vocoder! An ideal all in-one-synth for any DJ or dance musician! It has been used by KMFDM/MDFMK founder Sascha Konietzko.

I bought my Sirius in the summer of last year (2008). The guy i got it from looked after it well:) however he said he could never figure it out. I spent a few hours and managed to program a new soundset aimed towards minimal house. I have programmed anything from subby basses to sizzling pads and the lead sounds are in a league of there own. I Actually managed to get a kick drum out of this machine that was fat and polished without any eq or compression. Thats a 1st for most synths. The sounds sit in the mix better than any vst plugin or even many synths double the price. The sound is just plain amazing. Its only dated if you program dated sounds, but its the bass and bloops that make this a real keeper in my studio.
I find it very easy to program.

This synth rocks. The intuitive user interface is a very strong feature.

I've got a Sirius for sale. Absolutely mint condition, less than 10 hrs use (due to lack of time for my hobby). Contact me: gspot_tkb@hotmail.com
