Glad you like the synth. The whole team here put a lot of effort into it.

[@danjelvantijnintellijel756]

Thanks for taking the time to show some of the basic sounds! It is always helpful to hear the different filter mode sweeps and raw tones in isolation like this.
Two points of clarification I wanted to make:
1. The middle SUB position is an analog OR of SUB -1 and SUB -2 which effectively gives a -2SUB with narrow pulse. This is the same as SUB mode three on an SH-101
2. That switch in the VCO A PWM section selects whether the Pulse waveform is EDGE or CENTER based. This has an impact on how pulse sounds when layered with other waveforms since it changes the phase relationship.
I liked the FM+Folder action towards the end and also the pedal inserted before the filter. Lot's to keep exploring and experimenting with!

More modular stuff with @mylarmelodies please! We love this guy.

[@GrootsieTheDog]

I've been wanting this for every synthesizer video - meticulously sweep the filters with resonance to really get a sense of the character of a synth . Should be a main requirement for every synthesizer review from here on out

[@thedarkestrainbow]

This is one of the best sounding modern synths I have heard. They really smacked it out of the park with this. It’s so darn juicy and textured. Rich. Great job on the review as always.

[@AceGarpTruckingCo]

Thanks for this; this and your other Cascadia video are the best things on the internet about it. Particularly love the attention paid to the drive section, as drive is definitely my Thing

[@rodnee2340]

It's nice to put a face to that velvet voice. Luckily melodies.

[@zipnone1996]

sounds great! cool to see some raw sounds

[@cryptocombustion9322]

One of the most incredible things I've ever seen. Buying one now.

[@vinylarchaeologist]

Filter sweeps, yay! This is like going back to the early days of Modular TH-cam ❤

[@Gear4musicSynthsTech]

Ha, sadly not filmed in 480p with a pocket camera though!

[@vinylarchaeologist]

@@Gear4musicSynthsTech Plus, lots of awkward pauses and a sequence that gets annoying after 6 seconds 😅

[@ecthroi]

really great walkthough. is there a part two? there should be.

[@enmach1]

Thanks for presenting the in-depth take, would have liked to see more about Envelope B and Expression, but supposedly mine is arriving tomorrow and I'll have a go at these myself!

[@Gear4musicSynthsTech]

Ah, have fun!

[@SurfaceDweller]

Funky!

[@delta-9969]

I'm mostly excited by the utility row for some reason. I must be getting old

[@eubique]

I haven't watched this yet but I know it's going to be very, very dangerous.

[@objectpdfmov]

I’m gonna need to hear some buchla bongos

[@Seekthetruth3000]

Is the sound coming out of this synth monophonic or stereo? Thanks.

[@Bananskuden]

Is there an output from the folder? Say, if I wanted to filter the folded signal, how would I do that?

[@Gear4musicSynthsTech]

Yes! It's right at the top. In fact we do just that in our new Krell patch video: th-cam.com/video/Fs2vNIgyyqY/w-d-xo.html

[@Bananskuden]

@@Gear4musicSynthsTech Thanks, I see it.

[@thedarkestrainbow]

I’d love to see a keyboard version of this.

[@lidopigeon257]

How does it compare sound-wise to the Atlantis?

[@Gear4musicSynthsTech]

From Mylar: "Probably the simplest way of putting it is with the right drive settings and levels, Cascadia can sound very Atlantis-y, but Cascadia is capable of much cleaner and also much more driven sounds! Obviously all the extra tools and sound shapers on Cascadia push it far beyond Atlantis' capabilities. I do

[@lidopigeon257]

@@Gear4musicSynthsTech Thank you. I was wondering whether it would be a worthy upgrade to my beloved Atlantis. It is very tempting

[@JS-vk7ek]

If only the lighting guy could have created yet another shadow source to really mess with the concentration space

[@aikighost]

very cool synth but way too expensive, considering what you can get for that money these days.

[@MrCshmn]

HA. Try building this in eurorack modules and see how much it costs.

[@aikighost]

@@MrCshmn top tip, buy non eurorack synths 🤣

[@MrCshmn]

@@aikighost I already have. I’ll pick one of these up soon. 👍🏻

[@cinemalulli]

Nice but costs far too much for what it does

[@markus6409]

Sure?
What would it cost in modules?

[@cinemalulli]

​@@markus6409 You get by with a few doepfer modules for the various modulations, a couple of arp-style oscillators and a roland filter. I'm not saying that it's a bad synthesiser, on the contrary, it's really beautiful and certainly sounds good... but more than two thousand euros is really a lot

[@MrCshmn]

@@markus6409 Exactly. Add all this to your cart in modules and case and come back to us.

[@Slurkz]

Thanks for the review! I'm not impressed by this device. For $2100 you'd expect something more enticing.

[@Gear4musicSynthsTech]

It's not for everyone, that's clear! Thanks for checking out the video anyhow.

[@Slurkz]

@@Gear4musicSynthsTechThanks for your reply. I think I was in a bit of a grumpy mood earlier.
And I have to admit, in your later (Krell patch) video covering the Cascadia enticement was definitely happening ☺️.
