A (Volca) Modular in the Garden

Published on May 29, 2019 Wein Glas

"We had fine weather so it was about time to test the battery powered Korg Volca Modular in the Garden. This time I patched more usual sounds, some might say: musically or even danceable.

But if you watch until the end, you might have the chance to listen to some Weinglas trademark sounds ;-)"

"Waited for almost a year and received the EL2 end of March 2019. Barely used it. It basically stayed in the box. The EL2 is limited to30 units!

At first glance, the EL2 features a classical, subtractive signal flow. A closer look then reveals some cool oddities like unconventional filter slopes, extensively equipped modulators, a band echo simulation and a spring reverb. The EL2 features a completely discrete circuit design. Its sound is creamy and fat at the same time. Thanks to NOS components, the instrument has a nice vintage vibe. Compared to its predecessor, the EL2 offers some very useful additions. – Especially its three oscillators have been extended considerably."
