IK Multimedia UNO Synth PRO X Synthesizer In-depth Review + Tutorial

Host Ziv Eliraz, in his latest loopop video, takes an in-depth look at the new IK Multimedia UNO Synth PRO X synthesizer.

The UNO Synth PRO X takes IK’s UNO synthesizer concept to a new level. The portable synth features a dual-filter, 3-oscillator paraphonic design, 256 presets, a 64-step sequencer and more.

Other key features include true-analog overdrive; 10 effects; three simultaneous slots: modulation, delay and reverb; external input and more.

Eliraz calls the UNO Synth PRO X “a very characterful-sounding monophonic and paraphonic synth”, with a broad timbral range.
