Sequential Trigon-6 Synth Showcase with Mike Pensini!

video upload by Mannys Music

"For our first time hosting a special guest in the video studio, local keys maestro @MikePensini dropped in to showcase the latest big and bold analogue synth from Sequential; the Trigon-6. A long-time Sequential enthusiast and career player, Mike totally blew us away, cruising through a variety of genres and styles, really pushing the Trigon to be all it can be.

The Trigon 6 is a 61-key, 3 oscillator, 6-voice polyphonic analog synth with a broad sonic palette, from the famed classic timbres of 70s and 80s through to modern cinematic bliss. A professional instrument in every sense, and a fitting testament to the late Dave Smith."

Sequential Take 5 Demo by Mike Pensini

video upload by Mike Pensini

"Kick back, relax, put on your good headphones (or switch on your good monitor speakers) and enjoy a selection of my favourite patches from the amazing Take 5 analog synth from Sequential!

This little powerhouse is a sonic monster - creamy leads, funky, squelchy, screaming leads, powerful basses, Prophet 5 brass and poly sounds, plucks, pads - it does it all so musically and with class - and the keybed feels wonderful to play, really allowing you to get the most out of the instrument.

A big shout out to Ben Willis who shot this demo video and edited it together - absolutely stellar work!"

I love it!!!"
