Godsdamn it, Pittsburgh Modular, if you could stop making badass synths that I feel like I can't live without for a while, that'd be great!
(This is in reference to the new Voltage Lab 2, as well as last year's Taiga, to a lesser degree.)
Especially since they're not cheap 😅
(No shade intended, I KNOW they're actually very cheap for what all they can do, but the raw cost is eye-watering to a indie artist who doesn't make $10's of thousands a year from music making.)
@LadyMarth01 as an opsix owner, it's SO CHEAP! I looked into grabbing it 6 weeks ago when I went back to DAW-based production but I couldn't find any info on the deal (I didn't look very hard LOL, I had plenty of other stuff to keep me busy in the switch over) but today, as I was tumbling down a series of rabbit holes, a link to the deal just kinda popped up and so I said to heck with it and grabbed it.
@LadyMarth01 I'll keep the opsix physical version tho, as programming it is such a pleasure that I don't think a mouse/keyboard-based editing experience could ever hold a candle to it
Okay, in a convoluted series of rabbit holing events, I ended up buying the #opsix native plug-in thanks to my infatuation with this synth 😅😭
Hey, it was just $50 since I own the actual opsix and I figured the convenience of having it as a plug-in was worth that, easy, especially since I can program the patches on the EXCELLENT hardware interface and then port them easily to the plug-in.
I don't count this as buying new gear so much as it's just paying a convenience fee to extend the capabilities of gear I already have.
So my pledge to not buy new gear this year is still (technically) intact!
(I also didn't buy Synplant 2 after demoing it for a couple weeks. It's very cool but it just didn't feel vital enough to break my pledge. Maybe next year.)
@poiseunderchaos ooh there's a few things Arturia makes that I'd snap up in a second if I could...
(Keep telling myself I don't NEED both a MicroFreak and MiniFreak... And the PolyBrute is still my dream analog polysynth, doubly so now that it's got a 12-voice version...)
