"Second shot at making something with the Solar 42. This thing has incredible range. Wild noise and beautiful sounds. Here's one on the beautiful end."

1. Swell - Solar 42

Love that there's a 5-step sequence on this. Love anything in 5. I found this neat quirk of the Solar 42 where if you touch the nut that secures some of the patch points with a cable that's already plugged in, it causes the pitch on all the oscillators to detune together in this really nice way. Super cool.

2. Solar 42 - Grasslands

Here's one that's more laid back, peaceful and expansive. Love the white noise generators on this thing. The loop and hold functionality on voices 4 and 5 are really handy, too. I used those to make the repeating siren noises about halfway through.

3. Scamper - Solar 42

Here's something a little hectic and dissonant. Still learning to mix and balance the all the voices together.

4. Solar 42 Improv In G

Second shot at making something with the Solar 42. This thing has incredible range. Wild noise and beautiful sounds. Here's one on the beautiful end.

Getting to know the Solar 42 from @ELTAmusic. This thing is amazing. Looking forward to getting a better handle on it.
