Re: [AH] It doesn't sound like a SH-101

I want nothing more than for this clone to be perfect, or even close,
so I can leave my real SH-101 wired up in my studio and get a cheap
behringer to take out live where a dingus might spill beer on it or
sweat my drip off of my disgusting face right into it, etc. This
doesn't sound like an SH-101, though. It sounds closer to something
like a Minibrute - way more aggressively voiced. This is an
unfortunate trend among pretty much all modern synths in the need to
appeal to the cool guy/edgelord/edm/industrial/etc. crowd. You can
always distort a clean, euphonic synthesizer through an infinite
number of options in the recording process, but you can't un-distort
something that's designed to sound like a honking, overdriven turkey
by design.
