Chroma Console Performance W/ Mother 32 + Minilogue + Digitakt


video upload by Hologram Electronics

"In this short jam, we've got the Korg Minilogue and Moog Mother 32 routed into the Digitakt II's external inputs. Those two instruments, alongside all the samples and patterns on the Digitakt, are getting sent to Chroma Console to glue it all together.

Extra patch notes below:

1. At the upper end of Sweeten's Amount knob, you'll start to get some really nice soft saturation, perfect for getting that "already mastered" type of analog sound. Adjusting Sensitivity (secondary control of Tilt knob) allows you to dial in just the right amount of saturation for your mix.

2. Done this before in other demos, but it's really useful; if you turn Drift up on the Pitch effect and put the rate knob at 50%, your signal isn't getting pitch shifted, but you'll still get some random/subtle pitch modulation that's very tape-like. Makes the synth sounds like the oscillators are on the verge of drifting out of sync in a cool way.

3. Delay on a whole mix can be cool, so we used Cascade here. Syncs perfectly to MIDI tempo and just adds some nice rhythmic syncopation to the whole thing.

4. Cassette adds more saturation, compression, and tape-like modulation. It's dialed in pretty low here, but the Cassette effect in this form helps add that slightly-uneven result to sound processing that analog gear is often so revered for."
