if im looking to build a hardware cloud in the future(far future) should i just get enough vcos to make 16 oscs? or is the cloud generator worth it?

Get the original Cloud module. I used to have one that was very similar and it's very different to multiple vcos. It just has such a unique sound. I;m sure you can find schematics for one if you want to make one your self who knows

Now that there are some proper reviews and demos of the Bass Station II, I'm leaning towards that. It sounds so good *_*

Even the simple Initial saw patch sounds freakin' cool. And the distortion sounds awesome.


...oh and it does Acid sounds really well apparently. Acid sounds are my musical fetish.

Dunno what it's from but the patch is called strictly bass which is what it was called on the synth so that might help

Update: I may have to preorder the Bass Station 2. I'm also gonna need an audio/midi interface because of the analogue component of it.

Yeah, the interface is probably one of the only music related thing I won't have to leave town to find.

I've seen a few different kids of audio interfaces around Toowoomba.

However there are only 2 synths available in this town.
A Yamaha which you have to order and Microkorg.

I don't have the budget for it right now, but once I get a job I might put some money towards it.


I might use the mic and do vocals one day
