Bowen's Pro One Vrs.2.2
Posted: Thu Feb 22, 2007 2:38 pm
Bowen's synths as we all know are the kind. This little gem comes very close to real analog, but lacks that Oberheim / Moog fatness w/ portamento when doing monophonic leads, but is somewhat hidden in the lower registers as it sounds pretty fat. But if any of you has a real monophonic beast, you know what I'm talkin' bout.
Just take Shroomz / Sharc's VM-42 Valve mixer and place the two mono synths ( assuming you have one ) and run them in the front, as they are mono inputs. I'd advise cranking the drive here also. But on your analog you can double up on the Oscillators, matching them to the Pro One's, or add different frequencies to really get a full sound. This actually sounds better than mixing my 2 x SE-1x's, as the sonic results are both different, thereby giving you one collassal mono beast.
I have had extreme pleasure listening to the dripping fat coming off of these through the VM-42.
If you don't have an analog, but want to have the old and the new, get a used Studio Electronics SE-1, or SE-1x as they sell for cheap, and they have the Oberheim / Moog filter. This will crush your enemies, eliminating their desire to perform.
I use the older SE-1, and have the SE-1x in reserve. They are basically the same durable well built FAT BASTARDS. The SE-1 can be had 4 300 USD usually.
