At the beginning of 2024 I started building a small modular rig in a NiftyCase with the express aim of not making a an analogue Reese machine! Unfortunately that's exactly what I've made and this a is a little test patch with it.

In this quick test we've got the Instruo Saich quad oscillator going into the Bubblesound Sem20 Dual filter which emulates an Oberheim filter combined with MS-20 resonance and also provides/creates stereo filtering. . 

The Instruo Saich module is almost perfectly designed to make big thick analogue Reese basses. It has 4 saw waves that can be individually detuned/unisoned/harmonised and the first oscillator can also act as a sub-oscillator as a square wave at two different pulse setting or a modifiable pulse wave with PWM. Then you can mix between these voices as well and add FM as well so and it's full of harmonics!

Saich Reese Test 02

This is a little test with the Instruo Saich oscillator going through both the Bubblesound SeM20 Dual filter and the (new to me!) Future Sound Systems FIL4 Timbral Sculptor, which is an absolute beast of a filter. Since I made this it has now become my primary filter. This is just a little taste tbh.

Double Filter Madness

I'm a London-based producer dabbling in DnB, techno and hybrids. I try to do as much of my own sound design as possible. My main tools are Ableton, MS-20 Mini, TB-3, Prophet Rev2, Monologue and a bunch of Korg Volcas. On the soft side I'm loving Massive X, Massive, Serum and trying to learn MaxforLive.
