After two days of tooling around with BS2 I want to say I wouldn't mind having both of them in my setup. They are as different as two monophonic analog synths could be. BS2 is much better for all those "classic" synth sound (not that it can't get weird though) and Minibrute has totally unique sound. I would give advantage to BS2 for bass duties and synth drums and to Minibrute for leads and arps. Both are awesome!

Yes Sir, that's kinda how they were intended, the BS2 is a Bass Monster... Those keys feel good too...

I have Arturia GAS for sure but I think the Microbrute is more my Noise flavor...

Funny, I thought the opposite :) Did not like the keys, much prefer Arturia keybed. I used to have Novation Ultranova and its keys were much better than BS2 as well. In general, Minibrute feels much better physically - keys, modulation and bend wheels, knobs, it's just a joy to play with.

Quiet you! No keyboards allowed. Sequencers all the way! Wait! Oh yeah, need keys for the arp :wha?:

When I got my Minibrute, the salesman suggested the BS2. When I said, "Great! I want to check it out!" He replied with, "Sorry, we don't have any in stock ATM." :picard: I would love to have both, but I'm good anyways.

I made a much higher quality recording of that French Connection thing.

What kind of MOAR? I'll post pics of my super cool mini lunchbox modular once I get some velcro. You can actually fit a Doepfer spring in one!

My gnarly noise rig.


That mixer is adorable!!! How is it? I've been considering getting a small mixer, and that one compact and seems to go for fairly cheap.
