Thx!

I'm working on some other demos, with less resonance, looking for smooth and more musical sounds...
Stay tuned chaps...

Wow, I've never been interested in the Delta until now!

I've always liked those "two synths in one" vintage synths like the Prophet-10, JX-10 or Yamaha CS15. The CS-15 was one of the coolest synths I've owned, but it was kind of limited soundwise so I sold it, it wasn't getting as much use as it deserved, and a friend needed a 2VCO monosynth for the band he was in, so.

Yeah I like the "double synths" too, excepted for that JX10 I tried at last 2 weeks ago: Poor flat sound...
Did youy ever try a Maxikorg? Mine gave me the idea to "double" the Delta too!
Here some pics of the definitive state, after 3 more layers of varnish and Upper Attack broken slider repair.
The baby weights 19,4 kg and the father is happy.

Did you ever try one?

Yes, I tend to base my verdicts on first-hand experience.

Which is exactly why I don´t like it.

Oh OK I understand now... Just matter of personal taste I presume...
Well, it's right that in this first demo I tried to "push" the filters, sothat you could clearly hear the distinctive sound from each of the 4 sources...
I'll try to post soon Pads, Bass, Lead and FX demos that will show the musical ability of that powerfull and very expressive instrument.

Yes, absolutely. I could never really warm up to the sound of the MS20 although quite a few bands I like(d) use(d) one... DAF, Liaisons Dangereuses, Einstürzende Neubauten, Der Plan...

Some other sounds... I searched lead sounds, then tried them on chords, and on basses.

4 other "lead sounds" later...

Very nice work, beautifully engineered too. It looks great.
I will listen to the clips when I have more time.
I havnt played a Delta for a long time but when I did I liked it, had a charming sound.
