Spent Saturday at Knobcon 2015! Saw so many instruments I'd only read about. My favorite part was the "Demo Derby"– a room with a handful of "curated systems" where anybody could come in and play with them. I spent a lot of time there as it was my first time playing commercial modular synths!

I loved the WMD system and the Bastl system, but was probably most intrigued by the Verbos System (a "performance system" I believe: http://www.analoguehaven.com/verboselectronics/performancesystem/ although it didn't have a sequencer). It sounded absolutely fantastic and I discovered the usefulness of envelope generators that spit out a trigger when they are done (you can loop them!!). That's what I was exploring when I recorded this little track direct to my edirol recorder.

I certainly can't afford any of this gear anytime soon, but it sure is inspiring to make some sounds with this stuff. The next envelope generators I build will most certainly include "done" triggers so they can be looped. So cool.
