Hey guys!!
I´m planning to buy 2 new synths in the next few weeks, one of them the A-6 Andromeda.
I´ve tried the A-6 some years ago in a music store, and I remember it sounded just great!!
Untill then, do any of you have any links to sites where I can hear some sound snippets (demoes) of the A-6?? Some preset sounds maybe? I´m just curious of how it sounds, and how I look at it today!
I´ve tried the homepage of Alesis, but can´t seem to find any demoes of it there!?
Any help would be really nice!!
Big time

Don't look forward to it too much because I'll be stealing it from your house in a matter of days
Just a few plays on this and I came out of it going "WOW!!!!!" Alesis did it again with this one.

Tis synth is amazing, I heard a demo one day on which a guy recreated the Laser Harp sound (Elka Synthex).
A copy @99%

...Once upon a time... Alesis used to have demos on their web.
Now, like it happened with ION, its seems at least to me that they don't put demos anymore. (

)
I can still find their old interactive demo here:

Well, better than nothing...
P.
(the flash file should be played in a 540 x 380 window, if you open it fullscreen it gets quite crappy...)

I wouldn't judge a synth by it's presets. Never. And in this particular case it doesn't do the synth any justice at all!
There are some neat demos as well as a good review on
www.bluesynths.com. You'll have to register there, but believe me, it's a great site...

it is definitely worth registering on bluesynths.com
You can also try searching for the Andromeda on the
Vintage Synth Explorer forum.
There have been many great demos demonstrating specific parts of it.

This is one radical looking customised Andromeda
That 'Bluesynths' site is fantastic

That is really ugly... if I would re-style it, I would make it look like an old vintage synth..

Yeah, so do I, but IF I would pimp it, I wouldn't pimp it like that
