Synthesizers are more fun than instruments.

Is a synthesizer not an instrument?

I like the tactile feeling of a guitar. I'm not even that good. I just like exploring and noodling around, mostly with ambient type stuff. It's kind of therapeutic. I'm sure you could do the same with synths (get washed in ambient noises), but I'd be turning off all the beats and loops.. How much would a synth experience would it really be at that point?

The Truth Nuke is that synths are no less instruments than anything else.

Guitar is an organic instrument waiting to be explored and understood. Synths are a bit more of a machine

a synth is an electronic sound sampler that you can both program or play around with
think of a mellotron, which is a proto-synthethizer: it's a keyboard instrument, but each key makes the sound of anything you pre-program it to make; woodwinds, strings, a full orchestra...
still, you can play around with it just like you would on any keyboard instrument
you can also just plug an electric guitar on a synth or any number of pedals, and it's still a guitar

Synthesizer is also an instrument.

Synths are fun though. I can't make a good sound for shit but I love putting on that sw brass and fucking around on the keyboard. Wrote more songs on the thing after discovering synth vsts than I ever did on guitar.

You can create any sound with 1000s of variations with a synth. A guitar will always just be a guitar.

I'm guitar brained. I enjoy electronic music and hearing novel sounds but at the end of the day I'm just attached to the sound of the guitar forever and always come back to it.

This.

Shit thread is shit. Also, what is fun is purely subjective.

real instruments are more cool to show off but all the cool things left for us to discover music are electronic
