Sound
Uno LX Protozoa returns the lush and cinematic synth sounds, faithful energetic, healthy at the bottom. You can create moving and dynamic leads, produce classic sounding sonorous sequences, low pulses, punchy basses, and tense pads.
Matt from The Unfinished describes this collection as “This collection gives you a little bit of everything, from Tangerine Dream and Vangelis to Olafur Arnalds and Johann Johannsson, with a hint of Stranger Things and Sasha along the way. Great for adding a touch of classic synthesis to your composing work, but equally at home in the realms of ambient, techno and synthwave.”
You receive a focused collection of sounds, as expect from the producing company at high quality. Those presets are fully working on their own, you should go ahead and change them and experiment with the synth. Also, add third-party effects later to shape the sound. With the included patches you receive an exceptional rich palette of tone and sound. This prepares you when you score to picture and need that unique analog taste and vibe, that has been recently over the last years worked very well with many TV shows.
TAL-U-NO-LX is a comprehensive emulation of the famous Juno 60 with a new engine and GUI.
User interface & Usability
The patch collection is using the great UI from the synth.
