    TURN ON CAPTIONS For secret silent explanation! Huge tones from the Pittsburgh Modular Taiga Keyz. These patches were too nice to hide in a talky review/demo so i thought i'd put the sounds up front and centre in the heart of the action.. it's what its all about after all.
    There are 4 tracks in total.. trying out different patching ideas from simple non-patched using the internal semi-modular internal patching to duophonic mode using an additional VCA to split the oscillators into 2 groups - 2 osc going through the filter and 1 osc going through the Low Pass Gate.
    I've used the arp, the sync'd LFO to modulate the waveshapes for a pseudo filtering effect, the mod tool to control the filter cuttoff and I think on one of these I might have been using the random mod tool to add some randomness to the BBD for a lofi chorus effect - if not try it anyway! Once you start you cant help exploring :)

    Terrific usage of subtitles- it really enhances the underlying ideas without interfering with the music. Well done!

    Slick tracks! Neat sounds from Taiga well conceived, adroitly performed. Listing to these on a Saturday night. Your jams do indeed evoke Saturday night vibes. Good stuff. That bassline to the Big & Beefy track... *drool*. 🤤

    • @StarskyCarr

      Yeah. I use the reviews as a way to explore different synths and different ideas. I rarely finish them as a complete track .. just do the fun bits! Its crazy how many people don’t realise the effort that goes into the tracks in the reviews (or don’t even listen to them) .. I know the views on this will be much lower than other stuff, but as I realised there were 4 nice little demos together I thought I’d put them out separately.

    • @ShaunCymruDS8

      The are all impressively different, I almost forgot you where demoing a synth… it does sound good. I’m trying not to focus to much on this … my gas really is being ticked. Hope you get a load of positive feedback and get motivated to finish and release some more on here.

    What modules did you put in the 2 slots?
    Also, that last segment sounded like The Future/Pre-Human League stuff. The more I hear of this gizmo, the more I think I want it, but it’s competing in my GAS headspace with the Mantis.

    • @StarskyCarr
      @StarskyCarr  Місяць тому +2

      There’s a Qbit Mojave - a granular effect. I’ve been playing round with it so wanted to give in an outing. The other is an MFB visual VCA - to do track 2 an extra VCa was useful. (But not 100% necessary) - having the eurorack version I knew it would be handy!
