Learning to love my Sub 37

Post by IslandGhost » Wed Mar 04, 2020 8:15 am

I have owned a Sub 37 for a few years but never really got to grips with it and I realised it had spend a little too much time hidden under its dust cover whilst I concentrated on my Elektron and DSI synths. I found it easy to produce gritty bass patches but struggled with creating more mellow and ambient sounds.

I really didn't want to sell it, so I decided to bury my head in the manual for a few hours and create a track to explore some aspects of the machine that I had not looked at before (I needed some music for an animation I had created). I was pleased with the results and now have a better understanding of the synth.

I am really glad that I persevered with the Sub 37. :D

Wow.
Some super nice patches :)

So it shows that a little love and a some serious attention can do a lot!
I have only 'just' purchased a subsequent 37 and really can't stop playing.

It sounds so nice and there are so many possibilities.

+1
Some great tones and textures there. Love the fat grittiness. The Sub37 does seem to take some time to get to know. I've had mine for a year or so and am only now getting to really understand its ways.

Lovely work. I'm subscribing!

I think the SUb37 does the obvious gnarly sounds really easily but it can do an awful lot more and great to hear you've delved deeper. I did almost the same thing. I spent loads of time exploring my prophet and kind of glossed over the SUb37 for a bit.
I'm now doing the same deep dive with my matrixbrute.
