Device Failure Imminent? Sometimes Things Are Flakey.

Ever had trouble with your gear? Sometimes it's yourself just doing it the wrong way, but on occasion something is really broken or at least needs restart. I should be more relaxed when those things happen.

Anyways, not much time this week since we went to SUPERBOOTH26 smile So expect (even) less polish than usual. There is plenty room for arrangement and sparkles.

Very fun and with those deep bass sounds this is a great dose of ear candy. Its definitely a journey, but there's all kinds of melodic and sound design moments in there that could definitely expand to multiple subsequent tracks, there's so many great happy feel good sounds in here heart I hope you enjoyed superbooth!

Thanks. The Bass is done with a Pro-1. Once I got a nice sounding patch I recorded is as main/middle sound and adjusted it a bit for doubling left/right. It's my first hardware synth and the one I am most comfortable with, when it comes to making patches - I didn't even take a picture of the settings this time.

And yes, I very much enjoyed it. Apart from seeing the (now grown up) kids, I got the chance to play with a Moog Voyager, Jupiter-4 and a Matrix 12 for the first time, thanks to the Synthesizer Studio Berlin / Synthesizer Museum. Also got my hands on some of the new gear the big and smaller vendors presented. Though not every vendor I would have liked, I simply was to exhausted at the end of the day so I skipped some that were my bucket list (like U-HE or the modular themed Bungalowdorf). It's 3 days for a reason, and I only had one (great) day to spent. I even got a selfie with Florian Pilz from Bad Gear smile
