UNPLANNED DOWNTIME: 12th Oct 23:45
New Synth Day:: Novation Mininova
Spotted this in the pre-owned section on GuitarGuitar - gave it a punt, arrived next day despite not paying extra for next day delivery.
My first proper venture into synths - I know very little about them, but smaller ones like the MicroKorg and Arturia Microbrute have always fascinated me.
There's plenty of sounds I won't use, but you can arpeggiate and adjust things like filter, resonance and drive on EVERYTHING. You can even add or remove steps from the arpeggio, and apply real-time effects to the notes using a row of handy buttons.
I've not braved actual menus or editing yet but there's already so much you can do using the dials that you almost don't need to. It's quite intuitive and user friendly which is a blessing for a luddite like me.
Might try it through some pedals tonight.

Those small analog synths are just too appealing.
