Heyho group, i was today testdriving the Ion in comparison also a NordLead 2x. I thought after playing the Ion, that the NL2x sounds warmer, fatter, more analog...or was my ears playing me a trick? Or is it just that the Ion presets simply sucks? (yes of course i tweaked them also...still the NL2x sounded better to me).

Yes the many of the ION's presets suck. But, as an owner of the ION and the Nord Lead 2 rack (not x), the ION does sound a little bright, brittle, and digital. The waves are sometimes too perfect. I tell you what really sounds analog, my Korg MonoPoly, Prophet 600 and Moog Rogue. There just is no substitute, for real analog. The ION is great for all the control, in the Mod Matrix, and the many filter types. The ION is good for it's unique sound, but it is digital and does have aliasing. Still, for $650 US, it's pretty damn strong. Peace, Jimbo

Here are some 100 % ION songs, most sounds self-programmed: Sleepers Awake: I built a slow, nasal string patch and did a pass with it. Then I took that pass and reversed it and layered it underneath the forward pass. The forward pass gets reverb and the reverse gets delay. Flame Vision: Named in honor of my town, Los Angeles, currently on fire. The beginning uses a frequency modulation sound I made with lots of ION distortion thrown in. Next, a kind of voiced string pad that gives way to some sequenced stuff with a few leads on top of it. Available at Soundclick: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/3/osmosisplastiquemusic.htm Or at AMPFEA: http://www.ampfea.org/files.php?com=i_view&type=2&t=1628 http://www.ampfea.org/files.php?com=i_view&type=2&t=1627 May the ION allow you to acheive new sonic worlds.

Thanks Dave, very flattering, no label, just working on getting enough stuff together for an album. These two pieces are still rough sketches, though I want to resist the temptation to over-produce. The www.ampfea.org <http://www.ampfea.org/> site is a cool place to check out other electronic artist's work. I have gotten some helpful feedback there. All the best, Jimbo

Cool...As far as over-producing, it's good to know that someone out there still understands that "less" is sometimes "more"...Keep it up... -Dave ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// --- In Andromeda_A6-ION@yahoogroups.com, "Jim Cowgill" <jimbodeluxe@e...> wrote: > Thanks Dave, very flattering, no label, just working on getting enough > stuff together for an album.
