Re: [wiardgroup] Re: Any Synthi AKS owners here?

2003-07-30 by Doug Pearson

I've never owned an EMS, but I've messed around with them a few times (and 
I got to briefly experience a wall-sized 100 in a German studio earlier 
this month!), so I'm not really speaking from experience.  But before I 
bought a Wiard system, an EMS was at the top of my synthesizer want list, 
and upon receiving the Wiard, it pretty much dropped off.  I realize that 
they're hardly identical, but I can get extremely close to nearly all of 
the EMS sounds I hear on recordings with it (well, I haven't tried them 
*all*, but you know what I mean...).  But I would be very curious to hear 
from folks who have done side-by-side comparisons (including Grant?).
