Synth & Music Enthusiasts Discord Server - waveform.social
Since this community is going away and at least one other person sounded
interested in a Discord server, I’ve gone ahead and created one:
https://discord.gg/CsGN9zzC [https://discord.gg/CsGN9zzC] I’ve created channels
for synthesizers and music production so far, but I’m very open to adding other
channels depending on interest. If this doesn’t get any traction in the next
week or so it will probably be abandoned, so please drop in soon if you’re at
all interested. (I’m “Thoughtquake” on Discord.)
I created a server. I haven’t done much setup yet, but if anyone wants to join:

DiscordI’m not opposed to whatever someone else wants to set up, I just mentioned Discord because it seemed like a low-effort solution. The upside to a corporation running it is that DDOS prevention and such are someone else’s problem.
Just a thought - we could start a Discord server. It’s not really the same kind of medium, but could still have channels for different topics (music production, synthesizers, etc.) and much easier to maintain I think.
It was nice while it lasted, thanks for all the effort you put in!
So, where are you going next? There are at least a few sizeable synth forums out there, and it might be nice if most of us migrated to the same place. I’ve been back on Reddit a bit, but not sure I want to continue that.
Deepmind was the first synth I returned to the store for a refund - did not care for that workflow at all. At the time it was a compelling feature set for the price, but there are so many more options now.
I hear a lot of good things about Pigments, but it’s a tough sell when Vital does most of the same things for free.
Arturia is doing a sale on their software synths. I’m resisting the temptation to add to my collection, but I figure someone here might be interested.
Sounds annoying indeed. I don’t have any firsthand experience with pedals, but I see Strymon Bigsky recommended a lot.
Just in case you aren’t already aware, installing the drivers for your audio interface and making sure you’re using ASIO can make a huge difference for latency. With everything set up right, it’s low enough that I don’t notice anydifference between listening to synths directly via their headphone jack vs through my DAW.
