    I wondered if this might ‘Tangerine Dream’ in one box …and you just answered my question. Brilliant !👏

    Came for an insight into the SH-4D, stayed for the mesmerising performance. I love how you stuck with the panpipe-esque main instrument for the whole piece rather than "showboating" with a bunch of different patches.
    You are a masterclass in staying on the right side of "just because I can, doesn't mean I should" school of thought. I honestly want to say that I felt a touch of Vangelis in the cool, calm simplicity in the way your arrangement gently and naturally evolved, peaked and winded down. I'll be coming back to this for another listen, to be sure!

    You were in the zone Alba! I’m so glad I came across your channel! I have modular, Kronos, nautilus, Integra 7, tons, but I think the SH4d is THE coolest synth to come around in a long time! With the S1 it is real inspiration. I can’t believe all the ideas UA-cam has provided me! You may have seen the gentleman that took a Sony Walkman and ran it through the Crave, I took that idea and ran it through the Roland E4 into the S1, it’s a brand new concept of me so I haven’t got to SH4D yet. Let’s just say it’s an interesting idea! I especially liked your use of ambient sequencing! It’s really early here so I can’t go play and wake everyone up, but I’m going to play with these ideas today! Thank you Alba!

    You know what? I have never tried the sh4d by itself! Awesome job! I always have it controlled with midi learn or something with the bluebox and blackbox. With the Drumlouge that combo with the microcosm and the lore works best for me. Wonderful job! I guess I need to pay more attention to what it can do on its own!

    That was a great performance! Thank you for that. Have you used the SH-4d at all with a DAW? Or just as a standalone device? I'm on the fence, thinking that the sound quality seems good but not sure how much sound design possibility there is or how easily it fits in to a DAW workflow. Any insights..?

    • @AlbaEcstasy
      @AlbaEcstasy  11 місяців тому +1

      Thank you! No, I am only using (my instruments) it as standalone. But the DAW integration is good and you can record all tracks separatelly via USB. CC-ing the parameters, externally, also will work.

    • @AlbaEcstasy
      @AlbaEcstasy  11 місяців тому +2

      You can do a lot more with the MC-707 (I don’t have it)(but I have the Jupiter Xm wich has the same engine). The sound of SH-4d reminds me of the SH-32, a bit gritty, but it mixes well with the ZEN-Core. But I like more the SH-4d vs the MC-707 just because its look: A LOT OF KNOBS! 😅
