1 sounds cleaner to me, so I think it's Dune 2, and 2 is Zebra.

Because Dune 2 sounds cleaner than Zebra2? Interesting.. Anyone else sharing this opinion?garryknight wrote:1 sounds cleaner to me, so I think it's Dune 2, and 2 is Zebra.
No band limits, aliasing is the noise of freedom!

I'd say that Dune 1 & 2 both sound pretty clean. In the sense of hardly non-linear or distorted/saturated. Don't know if that makes sense, but that's how it always seemed to me.

It's what I think some people call a 'plastic' sound. Makes it ideal for electronica. To me, Zebra sounds less... kind of... shiny, somehow. We need a new dictionary of sound-related adjectives.

Guillotin got it right first, DUNE 2 is 1 and Zebra2 is number 2.

Well, my Zebra 2 has never sounded so bad. Would really help if you didn't mangle the hell out of that patch.syntheticillusion wrote:Guillotin got it right first, DUNE 2 is 1 and Zebra2 is number 2.
Again, not a fair test.

They both sound equally uninteresting in this example.

At least 1 is a cleaner patch. 2 was drenched in reverb or God knows what else and it just sounds horrible. It's a muddy mess.spaceman wrote:They both sound equally uninteresting in this example.

It's a bit like Gearslutz here sometimes

Test aside, Zebra2 and DUNE2 are dramatically different synths.
Overall, I would personally pick them both for their differences, not similarities.
