"Aftertouch and response of the mighty Gem S2"
Listen closely to the aftertouch. I'm hearing the higher notes react but not the lower. Anyone know if the G2 actually had polyphonic aftertouch? I guess the patch could have key tracking on the filter enough to not hear the effect.
Update via jupiter8 in the comments: "The GEM S2/S3 does indeed have polyphonic aftertouch"
Update via jupiter8 in the comments: "I found this databse. I edited it somewhat and added a few missing models. I believe there's an Ensoniq model missing and there seems to be some confusion about the Prophet T8 and Yamaha DX1.
Other than that i believe it's complete.
I've heard claims that both only offer internal PolyAT and does'nt transmit it over midi. I've also heard the contrary so i'm not sure what is what. I don't have either synth unfortunately so i can't tell."

The GEM S2/S3 does indeed have polyphonic aftertouch.
ReplyDeleteThanks. It looks like it has a much better response than the Ensoniq synths as well.
