It is often stated that all oscillators sound alike, and that it is really difficult to discern one oscillator from another, be them analog or digital. I have received a lot of flack regarding my statement that the triangle wave on the Minimoog is special.So, as a result, I thought it might be interesting to take three of the most popular analog synthesizers and put their oscillators (and filters) to the test. And you! Can you tell which is which?The first part of the video demonstrates the waveforms of each synth without naming them. See if you can guess.Moog MinimoogARP 2600Korg MS-20State your findings in the comments!

sampleandholds comment about the envelopes on the moog and ARP are well stated.

I guessed right on the first guess. I later guessed wrong because I was listening for the fat bottom end of the MS-20 filter. The minimoog triangle wave is the best sound ever, with the possible exception of the 901 triangle (anyone know who can build me one of those?). Of course it helps that I've played an ARP 2600 and I own a mini. The triangle and the square wave on the D has never been duplicated, not even on the voyager!Brent R

you could easily tell which clips where from the ms-20 since they're much much dirtier. i find it easier to tell which one's which from listening to the sound of the envelopes rather than the waveforms. for example, the minimoog's intial attack 'punch' is very special and easy to point out. the arp is also quite punchy but more oomphy than hammery like on the moog (i hope i make myself clear :P).

fooled!

to me it sounds like A = MoogB = MS20C = Arp2600But that's a bit of a random guess. I'd say that definitely the middle one is the ms-20 though. Am I right??

lol I thaught it was moog korg and then arp because C sounded a bit out of tune :P
tetavo (December 31, 1969 at 6:59 pm)
i wanna say B is minimoog. C is arp. so, A must be the korg.

2:36 sounds like when you boot up a certain Super NES game.
