Next up is the Orgon Enigiser. At first glance it seems like a fairly nondescript module, but it has a 15 mode analog filter.

are there any affordable synths?

There's really nothing wrong with the entry level Minilogue, Microbrute, etc.

They honestly sound a lot better than some of the weird vintage shit that I've used.

A lot of this stuff you can drool over but it's kind of a let down to actually own it.

lots of love for the ciat-lonbarde Deerhorn Organ too, each unit has two brass screws where the antenna attach. you can hook up wire or whatever and run it off to where ever in your studio etc. you want to be able to play any of its three "theremin"

Yesterday I was playing around with additive synthesis for the first time on my Kawai K3. Got some pretty interesting sounds out, but it was mostly guesswork. The only annoying thing is I can only store one user created waveform at a time.

>>74331646
Waldorf Rocket maybe. It has a small form factor. Watch some demos.

iirc there's a reproduction in a slimmer casing and some added features, probably much cheaper than an original

I have one of these, #427 IIRC. The Sonica, designed by Frank Eventoff. It's a really simple little synth, in fact it barely qualifies as a true synth, but it does produce a nice square wave, and the internals are made by Sergé.

The neck is set up with touch sensitive pads in a standard do re me format, full or half steps delineated by thicker or thinner lines between each pad. It's got a frequency sweep knob, a half step button, a tone button, and a note bend button.

It's fun to play, but a little limited. Still, it's my most obscure synth instrument.

>>74332782

yeah all the TT's are pieces of shit imho

if you want CR78 sounds, just get CR68 for half the price and sample it

>>74333313
I socketed all of the variables to make it easy to swap different values in/out. Top of the board are the pulse rollz, 2x rows of 3,4,5,6 groupings. cap value effects the speed of a roll group, smaller values fast beats. Was experimenting here with slower beats using all polys, those get pretty big in the 1 to 10uf range. electrolytic are fine too and only practical way to try out 100uf values for super slow beats and mountain subbass response from the filters.
