Thanks for the feedback
I bought one, just waiting to get it.
It's a v deep machine
The scary thing is just the fact with creating patches etc
It's all new to me as used to working with samples or drum machines.
So the workflow may be a little slower.
I was hoping to get some decent patches I can tweak then develop my own stuff as time goes on.
It will fit nice along my trusty Juno 60.
If you have a Juno 60, understanding that synth will go a long way to understanding the Tempest, granted the Tempest can be more complex but you have to understand the basic functions of any synth to get the most out of it.
So knowing what envelopes do, what filters and oscillators and lfo's do etc etc are the building blocks of Tempest patches, except the Tempest has layers of these functions stacked upon one another.
The real key to understanding the Tempest is to learn what a voice is, what it does, what it can consist of and what its limitations are. This might be a little overwhelming to understand before you get the Tempest, but once you get it things will become clearer.
If you have any questions drop them, theres going to be a few, i'm pretty sure everyone has a couple to ask i know i definteltly did.
Take the time to learn the instrument and it will reward your efforts tenfold i promise.
Good luck on your journey mate!
