Yet again another superb groove 3 tutorial, its hard to find anything to critique on this, fast pasted yes but packed with information you can always watch again or pause the video, if i could make 1 complaint, i would have liked more sound design tutorials, giving more complexity.

Some really useful information that are not immediately obvious when just playing with the Synthi V, and some simple but useful examples of sound design.

Takes you from beginner to intermediate user in one series. Comprehensive and steady teaching, brings out many of SynthiV's quirks and characteristics. The rest is up to you to discover!

The Synthi was not a "synthetic normal instrument". The series explains how the Synthi works very well, but it concludes with an almost absurd demonstration of what it can do. I have owned two Synthi AKS synths in the distant past, and I have found the Arturia Synthi V to offer a very reasonable approximation to the sound of the original. However, the end treatment of this video series was just plain stupid. Nobody who had a real Synthi would use it to construct a "bass" patch, and nobody would use it to do a lead like the one built in this series. The real Synthi evolved into a machine that would allow the composer to produce sounds that weren't "common". If you look at the most notable applications of the Synthi or VCS3 in music, none are of the tonal, consistent variety you see with, for example, a MiniMoog. This series would have been more informative if it showen how the Synthi was actually used, and provided some guidance on how a novice could use it to make the incredible sounds it is so capable of.
