Lemondrop - Portable Granular Synth That Could by 1010music

[@GerenM63]

I really enjoy your video! I've had mine a couple of days now. A couple notes: You can change the key and scale of the "keyboard" by tapping the right arrow when you have the keyboard on the screen. It knows 23 different scale types with the most recent firmware. Also, if you feed it a signal from a monosynth, using the granular engine(s), you can use it to play chords up to four notes.

[@axis_8]

Thank you! Someone else told me about the availability of different scales as well, I missed that part... Thanks for sharing the knowledge! 👍

Very interesting synth! Thanks for your enthusiastic presentation!

Thanks!

[@AmbientHermitage]

Thank you for this presentation!😃🙏 I've had mine for a while now, but discovered things in your video I didn't know. The Lemondrop is more complex than I anticipated and that's nice. I make a lot of samples with voice or instruments having lots of fun with it.

Thank you! Glad to be of service! 🌞

"it is easy to hide it from your loved ones" love it, that really helped me : ) great video, this is exactly what i want out of a device, just to augment sounds rather than as an instrument so much itself - there is enough sound in the world i figure, but what can we do with it. greetings from lofoten, keep up the good work sir

[@axis_8]

I got such a good vibe when reading your comment. Thanks, man! Greetings from the southeast.

also checkout the Blokas Midihub, an amazing little box that also doesn't look like any money has been spent on it : )

Great video. Much information. 1010 should have paid you for that. By the way I got a lemondrop also...

The Lemondrop is a lot of fun (and I use it with Volca FMs and a Behringer Crave).

It is so versatile, a real multitool! Thx for sharin, btw! And I just love the small footprint.

" What's wrong with all the synths and gadgets you've already bought then ? "......" Cos it's yellow and i haven't got a yellow one yet ! " ....." Besides being a small plastic thing it was really cheap " Now all i need to do is paint the Arturia MatrixBrute yellow to match it and job's a good 'un. Can't wait to fire it up - it arrived today and i realized the genius behind 1010music gear design - you can have loads of these little boxes and they look like children's toys - but that;s where the similarity ends ! Thanks for the review Axis of Wold.

As you know, to the dismay of string enthusiasts, LHC failed to detect any evidence of supersymmetry in a vital experiment some years ago, but as an amateur pundit of SUSY I find some confirmation of that dreamlike coveted property of nature in your two jokes, the former is super, the latter is more mundane.

Dude I've had the red box Fireball for a couple of months now and l think it's one of the best synths I've ever used. Such a well thought out interface, touch screen, 2 knobs and 4 buttons but it works so well... BTW you can change the scale of the grid from major to any of dozens... hut the left or right key (can't remember which) when you're on the grid and you can select root note and scale. Peace.

[@axis_8]

Thanks for your input! Ahh, I missed that about changing the scales. So nice that it is possible!

[@girlinagale]

Wry sense of humour. Subbed.

[@robfordomjones]

Hi great video! How are you connecting the SQ1 ?

[@axis_8]

Thanks! I just use the midi out on SQ-1. And midi in on LD. The midi channel is channel 1 (ie the default on LD,, you can change it, if you like), and it just works.

[@danishdaycare]

Hi. Could you help me out? I'm not able to modulate the start position with anything, say a random lfo when play mode is "Moving". It just plays the sample from where the start point is set, not random with the lfo. Adressed this in the forum but no answer...maybe it's not possible, perhaps a bug or my unit is broken... Great if you could check if you're able to do this or any other lemondrop user/owner. Cheers. And post the result here, please.

[@axis_8]

Hi, I'll check it, and report back to you. 🌞

[@RDHamel]

The manual says you can live audio through the granular engine. Are you saying that’s wrong? Would that not be how you would use it with other gear such as modular? A granular delay?

[@axis_8]

Hi, quite the contrary, using the granular engines for external audio is one of the key selling points, imho. What I said is that in order for the granular engines to process any external audio LD must at the same time receive midi. Without midi coming in, no granular synthesis. It such a great way to use the LD!🌞

[@FuZZbaLLbee]

How many grains can it play per engine?

[@axis_8]

Hi, it has 16 grains per oscillator for a total of 128. Sample memory per oscillator is 30 seconds. Be aware that LD has extensive modulation capabilities and the density of the grains can be modulated in many ways, enriching its creative potential.
