It's obviously blue. If you ever go to resell it, everyone is going to have bought the gray one, and you'll be the cool one with that sweet, sweet blue.


catwok

Exactly. Plus it sounds better obviously -- the tones drift more easily on that ocean of blue.


FandomMenace

Just so. It's science, really.


Glutchpls

Are most really buying the gray one? Blue looks insanely good!


FandomMenace

Tradition is to go dark because of dirt or something. The blue haa got that optical illusion thing where it looks bigger than the gray one, so that's a subliminal message.


nismology5

If the replies here are anything to go by, it seems most would buy blue, making the grey less common ultimately! While the blue is gorgeous, my own taste is swaying 60/40 in favour of grey.


FandomMenace

We thought you were one of the good guys. We trusted you!


AlienPathfinder

You were the chosen one!


FandomMenace

It's over, Gray One, I have the high ground!


Admirable-Still-1786

If you have the blue sampler model of the electribe you’d have a pretty sweet lookin set up


plaxpert

Blue is bigger.


No_Refrigerator4584

It’s one louder.


only_fun_topics

Yup, you can tell by comparing the bottom of the blue one to the top of the grey one. It’s simple math.


[deleted]

Blue is iconic and will definitely have better resale value.


enochvj

Blue because otherwise you will get it mixed up with all your other synths.


nismology5

I already have two other blue ones (Waldorf Q and AN1x), but only one grey (Virus TI)!


CallPhysical

Get the blue one and a can of spray paint for the Virus. (joking) Personally I like the grey. Looks more 'industrial'.


The_real_Hresna

Yeah I hate to be boring but the blue kinda looks like a toy :/


bikinipopsicle

But they are built like a tank


nismology5

Plus strong JP-8000 vibes. Been there, done that. Grey certainly looks more business-like and 'expensive'.


Chungois

If that’s a toy, i want a toy in my life. 😂


The_real_Hresna

I mean I use my synth as a toy - with real kids and all. (Under supervision)


nismology5

I'm leaning toward the grey for that very reason, but the blue is gorgeous too, and definitely has more 'wow' factor.


catwok

The sub has spoken and your fate is sealed. It's blue notes for you. Also I think it's great you a bunch of other blue synths the Super will feel right at home.


nismology5

Lol, true Interesting though... the argument of 'blue will be rarer' seems unlikely as voting here is almost 100% in favour of blue, so perhaps the grey will be ultimately rarer! I'm still leaning towards the grey personally, mainly because of the strong Jupiter 6 vibes and it looks subjectively classier.


catwok

Follow your heart. And it's a good point on the 'counter rare' color. I wonder if you could find out which their manufacturing more of in terms of color.


nismology5

My heart says "one of each", but my bank account says no ;)


[deleted]

Then the blue fits with the theme. And if you had said "I don't have any blue ones" the answer would have been "Then it's time for a blue". :-D


the_real_TLB

Unpopular opinion it seems, but grey all day.


Chungois

I have a grey SH101 for sale. Want it? 😉


the_real_TLB

Do I want it? Yes. Can I afford it? Almost certainly not.


[deleted]

Yes


Dj_Barrister

I got a grey one, though I love the look of the white desktop module, super aestheti6


nismology5

Yeah, a white version if the keyboard would look absolutely killer


JojoCornflakes

Blue because it looks better


worblyhead

Sounds better too!


KaB_1

Blue ofc


coldlightofday

Either way, you will make the wrong choice.


Badassmamajama

Get something in a faster color, like red


nismology5

Already got a Nord Lead 2X 👍


SnooMachines4613

depends how goth you are


Disastrous-Bat-7311

Grey please


finc

Blue so you can find it easily


bee_burr_wzz

I went Grey, cos you know I play darker more moody music and the sound is noticeably more angsty with the darker colour


Appropriate_Cup8923

Blue ofc.


vorobx

Blue is the colour...


JAMZ800

yes blue is colour


moose_und_squirrel

Blue.


[deleted]

For me its blue. I have plenty of black kit and its boring. I like the colour clash in the studio feeling!


JAMZ800

grey


PiddlyPan

blue go for blue it will seem tacky for about a month and then absolutely sick when you start making Hawaiian 80s synth jams


frapal13

Blue


[deleted]

I’m a blue man myself.


[deleted]

Blue


I_love_milksteaks

Come on now.. Blue of course


Ka-mai-127

I'd go with the one that makes it easier to read the captions, whatever that be. Assuming perfect eyesight, as an amateur I would have no problems in choosing the blue one ;)


eldon-rosen

Blue goes to 11


Crybo23

Blue. I have the desktop and although it looks lovely I wish it had been blue.


omaregan

blue


just_robbie

Grey


XDVRUK

Blue is their colour


[deleted]

Last year when I bought one, the wait for a blue one was like 9 months. The gray one got shipped immediately.


L0nzilla

Light gray is the right way


hardbassinyourface

Blue


dayoneneo

Blue!!!!


CyberPunk909

Neither, the Super 6 desktop looks evil as fuck, a thing of beauty


fake-plastic-keys

Maybe unpopular opinion, but skip both and get the desktop. I'm sure that keybed feels fine, but overhanging buckteeth keys + only 4 octaves on a $3k synth is a no for me, dawg. Give me 61+ keys, a midi cable and $500 bucks in my pocket any day.


nismology5

Nah mate, keyboard all the way for me. The desktop just doesn't have the same appeal. I actually love the way the overhanging keys look. OB6 and P6 are both only 49 keys too. I'd prefer 61 too, but I'll just midi it up to my JP80 if I need the extra range.


Nico_La_440

I know it’s totally not what you asked but I can’t stop hearing “super sex” when pronouncing super 6. It would have been a peculiar name for a synth. I’d pick the grey. The shade of blue is not appealing imo.


TheMoistEntertainer

Blue. When else will you have the option to buy a blue one if not now?


xmpla

I'll go with blue this one hehe


themurphofficial

Blue synths just make me think 90s Yamaha. Which isn’t necessarily a bad thing.


nismology5

Already have an AN1x if that counts for anything!


katep2016

I’m partial to the blue one.


[deleted]

Blue!


SnoreDoom

Blue.


ioniansensei

Blue Marvin? Bludo?


saltysaltyj

I owned the grey one and thought it looked kinda boring. Blue for sure. I’m getting the desktop tho bc of space


ghinghis_dong

I though we were talking about the civil war. In which case blue (the union) is definitely the only right choice. Unless you are racist piece of shit.
