Sorbian Storytelling: Theremin Tale #4

Published on Dec 21, 2016 Carolina Eyck

"Some people don't know, but besides being German, I'm also half Sorb. The Sorbs are a Slavic minority in East Germany, to which belongs a part of my family.

Today I'm proud to share with you a bit of my own roots, telling a Sorbian tale. It was first written down by Michał Hórnik in 1858 and it's rather funny. Hope you like it too!"

"New toy (it's that time of year!) festooned with knobs so ideal opportunity to show how Sequetron macros can simplify some command sequences. In this example, the Noise Level knob and Glide Type button are used to switch the sub-37 keyboard between multiple synths, allowing concurrent looping & live playing.
