This is a more esoteric form of synthesis that would go over a 6 year old's head. I have a hard time wrapping my head around some aspects as a 40-something. Subtractive synthesis is much more straightforward, and gives an understandable reaction for each knob turned. IMO, the Korg Monologue would be a great synth for a kid. It's cheap, especially on then used market (around $200), is pretty close to one knob per function, and has a built-in oscilloscope, so they can see the waveform they're creating/affecting.

Wave Sequencing synths are extremely complicated. Even with it being a newer and better designed one. I mean I'm sure he would have fun with the sounds though.

This is a great deal considering prices could go up soon.

I purchased the WaveState when it first came out. Great synth, but a pain to program.

This is a professional synthesizer, it isn't a toy. I doubt a 6 year old is going to get much out of it and will likely break it, since it isn't meant for 6 year olds abuse.

I also would like to see more synth deals. When you check most of the US majors it looks like price collusion a lot of the time. It's rare that any of them has a better deal than the rest.

There's plenty of cheaper software alternatives. Even free ones. But that's not the point of having a hardware synth. I'm much more creative with a hardware synth in terms of sound design. And a hardware synth is usually more reliable and doesn't take up computing power. But there's nothing wrong with using software synths.

You're right but your computing power definitely takes a hit if you're using so many sounds. Hardwire just has this undeniable fee to it that can't be replicated digitally sometimes.

C'mon, every 6 year old should know how sweep a wavetable. Learn your sub-menus, then you can have some ice cream.

Agreed.

I have had countless synths and workstations.

What I've kept: Bass Station II + Deep Mind 12 (don't use it much -desk space/time)

The rest is iPad or ITB. Some of the iPad synths are ridiculously good (AudioKit's stuff is on another level)
VPS Avenger Synth, SynthMaster and Spire are my favs ITB.
