Are synthesizers the GOAT instrument?

[Scustin Bieburr]

You can program the keys to sound how you want. If you really wanted to, you can make a song with drums, guitar, and or course classic piano if you want.

They have their place, nothing beats live instruments imo

Synthesizers are live instruments.

Synthesizer, microwave me
Give me a drug so I can make seven babies
Pump my breasts up, can you suck the fat up
Please make my life appear
Like ain't no such thin' as bad luck
My, nose ain't right
Like I need a new one
Just take your pick, a yellow red
A black or a blue one
Virtual reality, virtual, bullshyt!
Synthesizer preachers can reach you up in the pulpit
Who a bytch?
Give me my gat so I can smoke this nikka
Tell his mamma not to cry
Because they can clone him quicker
Than it took his daddy to make him
nikkas bitin' verbatim
Thought provokin' records radio never played dem
Instant, quick grits, new, improved
Hurry hurry, rush rush, world on the move
Marijuana illegal but cigarettes cool
I might look! Kinda funny but I ain't no fool
Now if you wanna synthesize I empathize
Now if you wanna synthesize I empathize
But if you synthesize I will understand
Your synthesizer maaan

This… and it depends on who’s playing them. Prince, George Clinton and Trent Reznor can still make them feel live.

 

[Scustin Bieburr]

Yea,

Nah he wrong for walking out i wanted to hear more. That was tuff

They kind of are. As a keyboard player, I prefer Hammond organ. Both are really versatile, but the flexibility is unmatched with a synth. You can get some crazy sounds out of them.

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Depends

As far as functionally.. yeah they are.

As actual instruments.. just depends on the person and how they use it

 

[DJ Paul's Arm]

This is one of the greatest examples of all time on why the synthesizer is one of the GOAT instruments.
