  • Make Noise and Alessandro Cortini have been teasing their collaboration over the past few weeks, and it's finally here: the Strega. As you might expect from such a pairing, it's an experimental unit (learn more on Reverb: bit.ly/3d47Up5). Watch along as Cortini dives into three different applications and shows off the myriad of sounds and capabilities of Strega (shop Strega on Reverb: bit.ly/3d05rfy).

    The nature example blew my mind. Imagine doing that with some headphones while tripping :)

    I know it may not be everybody's cup of tea, but part of the fun for me, was figuring out what the symbols represent, how they effect the sound, without knowing exactly what they mean.
    And not always knowing exactly what to expect, keeps it interesting, to experiment with.
    Patching without cables, is a nice live performance touch too.
    I'm finding it fun, to run my FM drum machines through it.
    I'm enjoying mine quite a bit.

    Scrimped and saved, and just ordered my Strega tonight! Thank you, Alessandro! What an amazing little machine...I can’t wait to get my hands on it! It’s gonna pair nicely with my 0 Coast, and I have a feeling it’s going to be featured in a lot of my upcoming music/soundscapes!

    man... that opening sequence on its own... sounds amazing however i have my doubts. i think if i used the thing it would just sound like chaotic garbage. i think its mr cortinis extreme knowledge of the field and his beautiful language of music. so characteristic, deep and beautiful.

    5:19 the backround music that play when the detective has a lead on a missing person hidden in a shipping container of the dock. A swat team meticulously sweeps the surounding area leading up to the shipping container. The lead field SWAT captain giving sign language for the move in on the storage container checking for an IED on the lock, crack the lock open the container and it almost empty except theres a small wooden handmade box. The box is examined, opened and all that in it is a sample of the missing girls hair. The lead detectives is also told this over the radio of evidence found but no body. In disappointment the detective throws the radio at the wall.
    The detective is played by mark Wahlberg in the Movie, The Wisper Man.
