Traum
This Sunday, I have uploaded this song on Youtube titled “Traum”. It’s an atmospheric, ambient type of track. One synthesizer that is being used on this piece of music is the Vermona Synthesizer 1982. A synth that was built in the former DDR. It is a 2-VCO monophonic analog synthesizer with some basic analog edit parameters. It has preset VCF(filter) and VCA(amplitude) settings, but you can also set these manually. I love an extended release with some nice reverb settings. As you might have guessed, this old German does not have internal effects, but in combination with some old FX units or using the internal FX in whatever DAW that you are working in, it can sound really nice. I am okay that it includes no MIDI (just play and try to add some beautiful textures to your music and live in the moment, yeah yeah). There is a Czech company out there that has made a MIDI interface for those who are interested..
Auf Wiedersehen.
