How is the A4? Do you like it?

All Iā€™m after is my small modular case filled and my octatrack, trying to keep it minimal but the AR and RYTM either side is just gorgeous :heart_eyes:

A lot for many reasons. I do techno and itā€™s cool to see you can push it it such territories

I love using it also to control my modular (on top of the Verbos duo Multistage & Sequence Selector) + Elektron sequencer !

This is one of the main reason I got the OT. Iā€™ll feed send two outputs of my soundcard to it so I can loop, resampling and slice sequence what I want :slight_smile:

Colour photos. Gotta show off those red buttons :slight_smile:

It sounds cool

I saw a lot of people selling the A4 infact there are so many second hand on ebay and reverb and I understood that a lot of people donā€™ t like the sound- this is why I was asking

I have a DN and I love it but I have never been convinced of the A4

True ! Will post that as soon as I get the two cases stacked :slight_smile:

Donā€™t get me wrong, it needs EQ afterā€¦ It doesnā€™t as round and warm as - for example - an OB6 but thatā€™s the point, he has his own unique signature.
The power of that unit is - to me - his modulations that can be plocked. I mean you can do very cool and crazy stuff you wonā€™t be able to do with other synths.
I have a verbos which is very round, warm, phat so the A4 has a good place in the mix.

A4 and DN share a lot of DNA, just one of them is analog and the other does FM. Iā€™d say the A4 has more modulation options, but the DNs FM has a bit more versatility in tone generation. The A4 also goes a bit more into ā€˜crazy territoryā€™ with its neighbour osc and CV modulation capabilities.

Iā€™ve got the A4MK2, i love the black one so badly :sweat_smile:. May i change it ??! Lol
I kept the AR MKI , not that much improvement to the MK2.

@Hexislab
ARMKII has much more improvements over ARMki, than Analog Four Mkii has over Analog Four Mkiā€¦
