Amsterdam-based musician & producer SOUL SUPREME recently created a wonderful preset pack for Melbourne Instruments' DELIA Poly Synth featuring 50 new sounds spanning jazz, fusion, soul and hip hop inspired sounds. In this video Soul Supreme demos some of his own favourite presets from the pack, giving you a real taste of how these new presets perform sonically, as well as insights into how Delia's Morph, Mod & Pitch Wheels and Modulation Matrix has been incorporated into the sound design.

ABOUT SOUL SUPREME:
There’s a sense of duality in the work of Soul Supreme: jazz-minded, hip-hop-schooled. His acclaimed 45 records with reinterpretations of classic material by A Tribe Called Quest, J Dilla, Madvillain, Mos Def, and Grandmaster Flash show how he carefully studies and dissects music to flip things upside down for something entirely new. Serving as tributes to both the sampled originals as well as the golden-era productions-a spirit also heard in his original compositions.

DELIA by MELBOURNE INSTRUMENTS
DELIA introduces a 49-key velocity and aftertouch sensitive keyboard, new multi-mode analog filters, high pass & low pass resonance control, 3-stage overdrive and endless modulation possibilities.
MULTI-MODE FILTER:
DELIA’s true analog low pass filter is the heart and soul of the sound engine - warm, full and sweet or fearfully aggressive. It is complemented with a high-pass modelled ladder filter which can be linked for bandpass and notch operation. With 12 and 24dB slopes and separate high/low pass resonance control there is huge scope when shaping sounds.
DELIA’s filters have an analog and a digital section per voice. The analog filter is the classic discrete transistor ladder filter offering a choice of 24dB or 12dB per octave operation. Prior to this filter is an analog variable overdrive circuit that can push the filter from normal operation to complete distorted collapse of the transistor ladder, adding richness, aggression and body to your sound.
The High Pass filter is a digital transistor-level mathematical model of a 24dB ladder filter, based on the gold-standard Ebers-Moll transistor equations. This gives an almost perfect match to the response of the analog circuit, including the overdrive response, resonance and natural filter frequency variations.
MORPH EVERY PARAMETER:
DELIA’s A/B Morph function lets you explore and sweep through timbres like no other. The A/B Morph sound is an actively calculated change in parameters between the A and B patches including the entire modulation matrix. This provides the ability to instantly create a new preset based on the Morph position that is neither the A or B patch, but instead a totally new sound. Morph is also a ‘MOD destination’, giving you even more creative control via Aftertouch, Mod Wheel and Expression.
TOTAL RECALL:
The motorised journey doesn’t end at Patch Recall and Morph. DELIA’s ‘MOD MODE’ automates the Modulation Matrix setup. As you move between the 20 MOD sources, every knob changes position to display the active modulation amount. There’s need to tweak the panel every time you switch sources or destinations, no matter how many modulations or slots are active.
PHRASE LOOPING & SEQUENCER:
DELIA’s built in Sequencer offers two modes of operation. In STEP SEQUENCER mode, DELIA allows bi-timbral operation up to 16 steps with control of note-values, step count, hold and MIDI assignment. PHRASE LOOPER mode can loop & layer up to 2000 notes, with no additional time or overdub limits. Just like in Step Mode, bi-timbral operation allows you to control two layers independently, and combined with DELIA’s A/B Morph, you have four assignable timbres at your fingertips. Craft ideas using simple keyboard splits, or lose yourself in evolving stacked layers and sweeping morphs across vastly different sounds.
