True, but the moment the iPhone came out, they were antiquated, and it’s just so fascinating to me that they took a piece of corporate branding (“pod”) and just dropped it into the name of the thing and everyone was like “ok!” It’s like if everyone called video games “Atari Carts”

The cheapest synth I can think of with a built in sequencer that might do what you’re looking for is the Behringer Crave. This video has sounds it can make, there are plenty of tutorials online. m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlYk...

Can you give me some bands you are inspired by? This will help inform synth choice
