The number of steps on each track is independent, meaning it’s really easy to get some evolving/polyrhythm sounds e.g.Send LFO to cutoff and parameter of your choice with only one patch cable… and this LFO can be ‘p-locked’ to have different depths and speeds. since both mod channels are already pre-routed, you basically have a built-in mult.using AD envelope in loop mode, both mod channels, and 2nd VCO you can have six LFOs.

the patchbay is tons of fun I also ordered a few stacker cables from TipTop and a Synx (mixer/ attuenuator or splitter) to expand my options.This is my first analog synth so I don’t have much to compare it to but I am enjoying it so far. Sounds better to my ears than the first gen brutes.įound a 2S for $300 locally a few weeks ago and although I was keen on not buying anymore gear for awhile the lure of getting to know a semi-modular synth was just too great Ps, it’s a cracking sequencer/synth combination. My musical theory lets me down so I couldn’t tell you if it’s playing the correct notes for a maj scale without working out every note. That all sounds as clear as mud and tbh I’ve not played around with scales much. A plays the original pattern whilst A# seems to be back to the major scale? B deffo changes too.

If I switch back to chromatic whilst transposed to D# it plays the original sequence in D#… E just plays the original sequence in E… F and F# yield slightly different results so I’m guessing keeping in scale in the same way C and C# do. D# is identical to D in that it plays the sequence in D.

However the behaviour is different depending where I transpose to… C# works but plays a slightly different set of notes yet going to D yields the same sequence as when in chromatic scale but just shifted up to a D. If I then transpose up to an F the pattern follows with the same note changes. Simple answer is yes I think? If I start a sequence in chromatic scale with a root note of c then switch to say major scale, the notes in the pattern change to reflect the scale change.
