    If there was a pitch mode that enabled you to separate the pitch from the play speed of the sample (like the roland elastic audio v synth approach) this thing would have a stronger case for the price point in my eyes. More granular options is always great though. DF always bringing the demo magic as the synth god that he is lol.

    • @sweetwater
      @sweetwater  2 роки тому +2

      Hi Fire Sail Studios. The external Eurorack oscillator was set to a fixed pitch. So all four of the processed notes you were hearing are examples of the Lemondrop's ability to change the pitch of either the internal or external samples, which is awesome. Thanks for watching! -_Daniel_

    Hi. You say that you can send a modular synth in the external input, but, in the site, it says max 2Vrms. In confused and I wouldn't want to break the Nanobox Lemondrop with a input level that's too high. 2Vrms is equivalent to what V level peak to peak when we're talking of a sine wave?

    Granular synthesis is the sheeeeit. I feel like it is the last "new" or "futuristic" sound that will ever be invented.
    Who knows though. Maybe there are still new futuristic sounds to be invented or discovered and it is only my failure of our imaginations that no one has thought of it.
    Regardless, I love it. Gorgeous, chaotic, textural, and futuristic!

      Hi Ben. You'd probably have to put the mic through a preamp first and then adapt it down to an 1/8" TS cable. But you should know that the input signal gets buffered by several seconds so that it can be manipulated forward and backward in time. -_Daniel_

But I do know for sure that MIDI CCs can be freely assigned to *any* of the parameters that have three Modulation Sources, and that the CC#s can be any number from 1-127.

    I would have picked up the Lemondrop, anyway (at roughly $400.00, who wouldn't?!), but this demo definitely sealed the deal.
    Thanx again!

      A lot of people are saying it is too expensive, but though it is a bit out of reach for me without saving up, what else sounds like this at the price range without relying on VSTs?
      It is quite cool. I'd jump on it if it was $100 less, but as it is I'll keep it in mind for a day where I feel a little flush.

      Granular synths are good at creating new sounds out of ones that already exist, which is good for experimental ambient. Mono synths are ideal for leads. You can try to play, what sounds like a, guitar solo with a violin if you want but it's best just to use a guitar.
