HI, I'M LOOKING FOR SOME INFOS ABOUT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MICROWAVE 1, 2 AND XT, FOR TONE AND FEATURES. SOME FRIEND OF MINE HAD THE MICROWAVE 1 AND THE XT, YEARS AGO AND WHAT I RECALL WAS THAT THE MW1 HAD A BETTER TONE, WITH AN ANALOG FILTER BUT HAD SOME DISPLAY ISSUES AS WELL. I SAW THERE IS A 2.0 UPDATE FOR THE MW1 OS BUT I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S THE BEST OS FOR THE MW1 ? I REMEMBER THEY WERE USING THE MW1 ESPECIALY FOR PUNCHY AND FAST BASSES BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THE MW1 IS AS GOOD AS THE XT FOR NOISES AND TEXTURES (EXCEPT THE CONTROLLERS). I READ THE MW2 IS JUST A LIGHTER MW XT, WITH SAME TONE BUT LESS FEATURES.

thanks for your help. what would i do without you on this forum ? lol i saw that there are much less people on these computer/software/synth ...forums than on the vintage amp forums about marshall, vox, fender, hiwatt... there are tons of post and infos on their forums.
yes , that's what i was recalling about microwave synths. the 1 is sounding more analog but less easy to control without knobs and has less features than the 2 and XT.. i read the last microwave 1 OS was better, with more features.
i'm looking for this synth as wavetable synth for FX textures, noises and bleep bleeps, though it can be good for "plastic" basses.
i may have found a very rare small (2 vco's) polyfusion modular synth for sell and i might buy it if the tone is really gooood !! also i'm looking for a multimoog but missed one recently (shit !!)
