Budget Synths that are Difficult to Outgrow
Channel: minimal.camera
Date: 2022-07-24

This video comes from two prompts: 1) people asking the general question 'what's the first synth I should buy?', and 2) looking back at my budget gear purchases, and evaluating which ones have stood the test of time. All of the gear in this video I have used extensively, and all of it continues to be useful even as my studio evolves into the more expensive mid-tier synths and grooveboxes. If you are looking for hardware on a tight budget that will grow with you, I hope you'll find some useful advice here.
