I think of a range of sounds for each synth along a spectrum, like the electromagnetic field, or radio frequencies. Its implementation of “FM” is really 6 mini synths with all five engines available X 6 separate instantiations (3 “Oscillators” X 2 layers X 6 Kernels). it’s range is broad because it can do so much (those five synth engines). In these kinds of sounds, nothing I have ever owned comes close to the iridium, including any of my VSTs (except maybe Omnisphere).Īs others have said, it is a tool, in the end. I use it for lush, complex, clean, evolving, deep, spacey, which probably won’t surprise anyone. Growly and distorted just aren’t really things I use the Iridium for. I don’t know if somewhere in the engines there are compressors at work, but when I want growly, I go to the MatrixBrute or the Cobalt8. I’d say, “processed” even when using no effects. This thread is funny, though, because the one thing I think the Iridium is not very good at is sounding “bad” (as in “raw” or “grumbly”). This reply is really for others who might be reading this thread.Īs an owner of an Iridium (and many other synths), it can sound so many different ways. Not sure from your post you actually ever really considered it. Sounds like you’ve already decided you will not be buying an Iridium. What do you think, if you don’t really care about the feel, is it worth buying the super expensive IRIDIUM? are there maybe even plugins that sound much better? like I said, it’s actually a synthesizer dream, but if it sounds crapy… maybe a synthesizer as well as an effect should focus on what it does alone, and not all at once. I think that’s because of the analog filter? unfortunately he can only do half as much. I see it completely differently with the waldorf M, it sounds completely different than the IRIDIUM, much stronger in character but still digital. very digital and harsh and not warm at all. Now my question: whenever i listen to videos about the iridium on youtube, i realize that i don’t like the sound at all. I’ve tried a lot of digital hardware and in the end I’ve always come to the conclusion that, in terms of sound, I haven’t bought any enrichment in contrast to plugins and can therefore save a lot of money and it’s better to only buy analogue because that’s something else. in addition, the engine is simply amazing because everything is presented perfectly visually. it has everything you need, granular, simple synthesis, fm, kernel, wavetable and effects. well, first of all you have to say that the IRIDIUM is actually a dream synthesizer.
