U-He Zebra2 needs no introduction. For years, it has wiped the floor with competing softsynths. It was one of the first of its kind: a fully hybridized semi-modular workstation the likes of which no one had ever seen before, and was also one of the first to popularize wavetable synthesis, sporting a highly sophisticated wavescanning oscillator with unprecedented power and flexibility. In every way, shape and form, it represents the high standard of excellence by which its peers are measured.
Of course, I won’t argue that its sterling reputation is earned by way of its superior routing capability, but it also has a unique character all it own. Zebra2 sounds like no other; it has a fullness, a richness in detail no other instrument possesses. In the years to come, when its successors enjoy their time in the sun, Zebra2 will be remembered as one of “the classics” in very much the same way that vintage hardware synths are honored and sought after to this day.
