In one sentence: Streganov is a tuned multilayer tape synth canvas.

The raw samples took quite a journey before they went into the Tempera canvas. It started different drone samples from MakeNoise Strega which I loaded into the TastyChips GR1 grain sampler to stretch them. After going trough the EricaSynth Zen Delay and the Meris LVX I recorded them to a loop tape. In the second stage I used the ErrorInstruments Mello Man tape instrument to play back and pitch the recordings quite heavily. More in search for textures then for propper tuning. Finally the sounds went trough the T-Rex Replicator tape delay (more tape! :) and a GameChanger Spring Reverb and got recorded into the Tempera.

All the samples are more or less propperly tuned inside Temperas sample settings, so it's meant to be played with keys. The different Emitters acts as layers with different characteristics. One is more rhythmic, two is like a sub drone layer, three has a wavey character and three is a initial impact sound with it's own AD envelope. There are Macro controls for each of the Emitters on the second Macro page. Apart from that I suggest you play with the volume controls of the Emitters to hear what each Emitter does.

First upload :) Hope you like it!
