Genki Instruments Katla #2 | Winterdagen

Here's another patch on the gorgeous @genkiinstruments Katla synthesizer. For this keys patch I made use of Katla's voice rotation, with one of 5 voices tuned an octave higher than the rest, resulting in unpredictable pitch jumps in the melody, which I love. I didn't make use of Katla's oscillators for this patch, in stead the sound is coming from the filter with the resonance fully up, which tracks pitch very nicely when tuned with the simple calibration mode of holding down the two filter mode knobs. I'm a big fan of these singing filter sine waves, which always feel a tiny bit unstable which makes them sound magical. To top it off I'm modulating the panning of the voices, I blended in some of Katla's lovely noise for some warble and I added some of the amazing internal reverb, which reminds me a bit of my Vongon Ultrasheer. I love this sound so much and I've never heard any other synth make it quite like this! You don't see me playing the keys in the video, but I played this patch for hours, instant inspiration really. This melody is came out of that improvisation. Thank you for watching! ps. sine waves generally don't translate all that well on phone/laptop speakers, so speakers/earbuds/headphones advised.
