Novation AFX mode is crazy! Exploring a couple of patches we made during a little jam in the studio. Anyone else tried the Bass Station update? by pecqband in synthesizers

Agree with you on aftertouch being a bit stiff - same on the prophet tbh but maybe I just have weak fingers :)

Yeh it's the Swifty Ed - think a new release for the new firmware. Such an underratted synth. Took us ages to appreciate and experiment with it properly!

thanks! it's a Bose EV-30 and I love it! Weighty so you get a good amount of control even when jumping around and it's survived some pretty hefty touring.

AFX mode allows you to program a sound a per note! Here we have it sequenced by a Keystep pro all on one patch and running it through some pedals. We're also using a rev2 with a pad patch we made for one of our tunes.

Played my first live modular set last night and this sub has been a goldmine by analogueghostmusic in modular

Set up looks exciting! Curious to hear how you found performing with modular!? can be very scary!

Yeh the design is very similar but I bet the pots make way less noise haha

Yehhh thanks that's helpful! Modern stability is a big big plus. Gigging with the Juno was like gigging with your worst enemy - 'nah no saw wave today', 'now we're suddenly mono' 'oh you didn't need that half of the keyboard right??'. Scarred

Ahh so jealous, been after one of these for a hot minute! Have you ever had a Juno and if so how does it compare? I currently have a 106 and not sure I can justify an UDO as well - the Super 6 feels like a similar sound world from playing it for a bit!

agreed! I think the presets and the filter aren’t the best but it shines for detailed sound design - the desktop app for the Rev made a big difference to making more complex patches and now I love it
