Bad Gear - Serum in a Box???
There are videos about Xfer SERUM , Korg opsix and Korg wavestate too:
• Bad Gear - SERUM
• Bad Gear - Korg OpSix
• Bad Gear - Korg Wavestate
Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most-hated audio tools. What a time to be alive as a synth enjoyer! Ultra affordable clones of timeless classics, even the most obscure ways of sound generation are available for the price of one soul and samplers are now almost as powerful as they were in 1991.
Meanwhile, all these beautiful instruments have become basically irrelevant for actual music production and were replaced by gaming PCs with pirated copies of SERUM.
Today we are going to talk about moDWave. This family of wavetable synthesizer was introduced in 2021 and seems to be Korg’s attempt to bring the harshness of the aforementioned industry standard plugin to the hardware world. Is it SERUM in a box?

"Samplers are now almost as powerful as they where in 1991." Ooof. What a knockout
-
"The Stratocaster of EDM" you make my Fridays even with the Olympics on the telly fraternal greetz
-
Serum in a box? Don't threaten me with a good time!
-
The videos you choose as backgrounds for your jams are even better than my jams.
-
Synth manufacturers should be fighting to get a bad gear review.
-
Today marks the first appearance of the Hawk Tuah girl meme on Bad Gear....she's finally made it into the hall of flame
-
I will never get tired of you using the opossum clip
-
the amount of work and talent that goes into these videos is immeasurable
-
I love these reviews despite not knowing a thing about what you’re talking about.
-
“Serum in a box” Serum’s already in a box. It’s called my computer.
-
god I love this synth. And not because I made factory patches for it ;-)
-
Thank you for raising the value of my Modwave that I have been trying to sell for 8 weeks now. I am sure the great demos you made will help me move the box to someone who knows what to do with it!
-
Dude!! Props for the DR550! That did not go unnoticed!!!!
-
I'm always sad after bad gear. Cos nothing else I see today will be as enjoyable! But, as i have found, ya can always go back & watch old bad gear episodes! I kinda want a modwave now, too. D'oh! 😂
-
There is something about the sound of these Korg digital synths I hate to admit I love
-
I got lucky and scored a modwave mk1 for really cheap a bit more than a year ago. It sparked my creative journey again and I love it's sound.
-
I got a mk1 modwave used, hacked the keybed off and loaded it with the original massive vst wavetables. I love it. Loaded a ton of analogue wavetables from the web too. Makes for a great cheap VA poly. Up to 32 voice and bitimbral too, running on a raspberry pi. Makes me wonder what's inside a hydrasynth...amiga500? Nokia 3210? ZX81?

"HAWK TUAH GIRLZ" might be an unironically lit band name.
-
0:44 one of the best jams ever.
