Fun! Of course, so much is patch dependent, but I really enjoyed hearing the 01/w and the M1. I know nothing about it, but that 01/W looks huge! You've got a great collection of Korg synths and it's always great to hear the Polysix. Thanks for sharing. Cheers to you both. :)

@@zoltan_dudas I agree. I think the prologue had a rocky launch with some tuning issues that caused it to be looked down on early and it never recovered. Otherwise I think it would have a lot more recognition than it does.

I listened to these blind to avoid being influenced by my perception of the synths. Here's my ranking from best to worst: 4: I guessed the Prologue! Easily the brassiest sounding filter of the bunch. 7: Immediately recognized the patch, could only be a M1. Love a good rainstick! 6: I didn't know the synth (Trinity) but I wrote "Vulgar Display of Digital Power" 3: Totally wrong about this one, I thought it was a Virtual Analog 😂 5: I knew it was an analog filter, but I guessed the Polysix. Good filter character, not my favorite of the settings. 1: Clearly the OPSix. 2: I'm sure there's some great patches in the 01/W, but this one was easily my least favorite. Kind of the worst of both worlds (digital and virtual analog). Very brittle. Listening to it back now though I still think it's a great sound, it just doesn't stack up against the rest! This was a lot of fun! Thank you for the video!

My favourite poly synth came third in this shoot out lol. The Prologue is my bread and butter poly synth yet without bias the 01/W Pro X was the best in this demo followed by the M1 for me. The Prologue came in third. I'm sure that I can do all these pads on the Prologue though. Great video. I really enjoyed the demo

Great video! Thank you to both of you. I’m a connoisseur of synths that are good for pads and Korg is my favorite. I personally lean towards motion pads from the Trinity and TR-rack (which you showed). I also love the Wavestation, 01/W, and Z1 for their many possibilities. I’ve enjoyed the M1 and Triton VSTs from the Legacy Collection which are loaded with great pad patches as well. I’m not sure where I got the patch from, but I have M1’s Universe patch (kind of converted of course) loaded on my Trinity V3 synth and it sounds amazing in a slightly different way.

Rated solely by the presented sounds, (without keeping the synth"s possibilities in mind), No 1: 01/W pro X, No,:2: Prologue & Polysix. It even seems like Prologue's basic sound is more premium than Polysix's.

Thanks for the input! I think the internal effects on the prologue give it an immediate boost over the Polysix. Those effects were present on the patch here so it might be an advantage in this comparison. I appreciate you listening!

@@mwmusic29! I'm sorry for you that the prologue had troubles. I've never made it to deal well with issues like those. That's why I mostly ordered two identic pieced to make sure that errors that always occur with new gear aren't limited to just a single piece. Mostly one gets sent back. Particularly nice lighting in the video. Trinity shimmers ice blue. In terms of sound for the Prologure, there's no need to hide from the PS-6 (like it's company-internal called). Both sound great. I guess I coudn't decide. I too own a PS-6 & beside YAMAHA's FM test ballon GS2, that also has a (much better) Ens effect, nothing sounds as vintage as those two in my setup.

"Poly" is the name and pads and stabs are my game. 🤨 If I can't play a pad then the guitarist can't play in "E" and the drummer can't play the snare. The bass player? Who cares.
