Strega and 0-CTRL

[@dvdsarescary]

I’m obsessed with the percussive tones coming out of that blend patch 🔥🔥🔥

[@tonysharp1615]

Just wanted to thank you guys for all the wonderful videos. I have a 0 Ctrl and 0 Coast, with a Strega on order. The content of your tutorials is always clear, concise and above all, inspirational. Thank you; they’re very much appreciated.

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

So glad to hear that you are enjoying the videos - and the instruments! Happy patching ⚡️

@@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC Strega arrived this morning; I’ve just spent 4 hours in another dimension.

[@nickhaisch4277]

This might be Tony’s greatest work yet. It opens up a whole new work of sonic possibilities that have always been there but not always accessible. Well done.

[@charlesbernklau6234]

The Strega is so much fun to experiment with, even if you have little or no idea as to what you’re doing! As you learn to predict what the controls do, you may actually have an idea what’s going to happen when you twist a knob or patch something up, but I find it’s more fun just to be surprised by Strega. What an awesome creation you guys made with this one!

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

So glad you are having a good time with it!

Best Strega video I’ve seen! Very excited to be picking one up in coming days.

[@greggdecarlo6014]

You are blazing the new trail which must feel amazing !!!!!!!!

[@Daphoid]

Sold. I ordered a strega/0-ctrl on black friday (patiently awaiting delivery) - but the Strega looks like a Boxing Day target as well. Fantastic.

[@modmodell8897]

Now I finally I‘ve got my Strega. Waited for about 10 months.. next days I‘ll fly away. 😍😍😍 ( Walker, you‘re the best!)

[@EleniEliades_]

Your tutorials and patching ideas are always sO helpful. Just got word that my STREGA is on it's way and will be in my hands a few days from now! Such a wonderfully unique instrument~ Can't wait to play it + patch it into my Ø-CTRL as well as the Ø-COAST...🔥🙉💥🤙

Thank you! Glad to hear it and happy patching!!

Looking forward to this! Pre-ordered a Strega to add to my Make Noise collection :)

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Happy patching!

[@surrealchemist]

I came here because I just ordered a 0-ctrl just because I wanted to get a better idea of how to use it before it arrives. Strangely enough I must have watched this before I bought my Strega because I just gained some new insight into how the Strega works when you explained it.

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Happy patching!!

[@rockstar-technology]

This thing is insane... just massive enveloping sounds from both the oscillator and the delay half. Really well done.

[@AbyssalReverberations]

Dear Make Noise, Please stop making things I can’t afford but desperately want. One day I’ll get my shit together and become a reviewer just so I can beg to put the stuff you make that I can’t afford into my set up. In all seriousness, I love everything you guys are doing with these small form factor semi modular gear. My wife says no modular, these are my work around for that. Can’t wait to see what you come up with next! Love, -Hitachi

[@nsjx]

Yr wife understands the hidden value of limitations ;) This is why I don't plunge into a fully modular. I am waiting for retirement ha ha Have fun w your semi-modules when you sneak them in ;)

[@MitchGurowitz]

At 5:50 I was totally sold. But I already got my Strega at Three Waves in NJ the other day, I’m just here looking for tips (and there isn’t anyone better than Walker to get inspiration from). I know this is an absurdly deep topic, but it would be interesting to understand (layman’s terms) when you make a cool patch, what is happening on an electronic level. (What the signal starts as, and ends as). I know, keep dreaming. Thanks for the great new instrument and cheers to Tony and Kelly.

[@andrewnancarrow]

I’m just discovering these amazing instruments and love what Make Noise has created. With the trio 0-coast/0-ctrl/Strega, I am wondering how Make Noise intended them to be connected for best performance. Obviously with so many patch points, there are infinite ways to route signals But overall, should I run the final output of the Strega into the 0-coast or vice versa? Then the 0-ctrl I imagine can sequence any given parameters from either device?

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Dynamic output from 0-Coast to Strega Ext In is the typical patch when using them together, since 0-Coast is much more limited as a processor.

[@alanc6752]

I dont know about alchemy but its definitely got some magic. Rad synth.

@@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC I hope my local vendor gets this message, He told me "No more until 2nd quarter." I'll ask him again. I got the 0-Coast about 5-6 weeks ago, the 0-Ctrl is next on my list, but... I'm just getting that answer. Did you happen to send any out to Korea?

[@walrtbstudios5430]

Got my 0-CTRL about a month ago. Delighted to note that I have serial #1984- how perfectly Orwellian!

[@seek4truth]

Holly molly!

[@walrtbstudios5430]

Interesting beast, but I still don’t think it’s for me- not least because there are years’ worth of exploration remaining in the 0-Coast/CTRL combo.

Can the 0-CTRL be cascaded with an other 0-CTRL to make longer sequences?

[@richarquis]

I watched AC's initial video with Sonicstate, and heard nothing I liked. This is the first video where it has actually started to sound like something I might want. Seems it really does depend on the person playing it.

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

i have found that it is very difficult to demonstrate in a "universal" way, which is one reason that we took a little break from content for awhile to let others show how they were using it. very much looking forward to hearing it in the wild now that people are starting to receive them! -W

[@richarquis]

@@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC Yeah, agreed. Everyone makes it their own, in their own way. It's just so new that the content is still minimal, and his style is not my style. I need to see and hear it from others before I make a decision to buy it. Here on YT, we've still seen very little of it.

there is definitely something alchemical going on 😹, the strega actually gets *very* warm while running, while the 0-coast and 0-ctrl are ice cold...makes no sense, but fantastic sounds coming out nonetheless...

The Strega comes with its own power cable that can also power a 0-CTRL or 0-Coast at the same time.

curious about the dual power you have there. couldn't find something like that for sale. do you recommend one? would it work equally well for a 0-coast and 0-cntrl? Thanks!!

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

It's a Strega adapter with an included splitter. The 0-Coast/CTRL adapters are not powerful enough to power multiple units.

[@kellymerrill5294]

Just wished they used a better quality delay chip, yet had a distortion circuit so you had more control. The pt2399 is known for its low quality and low price. Yet this thing is $600...hmmm.

[@VictorSteiner]

This was on purpose, watch the release video.

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Strega is oriented around characteristics stemming from the limitations of the chip. There are three of them in the instrument, each with its own unique filtering and feedback paths. There are ways to saturate and distort the circuit at various points in the signal chain - Tony took inspiration for this behavior from the EMS Synthi, a favorite synth of Alessandro's. Alessandro has a particular ear for small hidden characteristics of synthesizer circuits that he can latch onto and use to create wonders. Strega could be seen as an attempt to create an entire instrument made of those little characteristics. All that said, if you do not think the sound and interface and experience of Strega is worth the price to you, then I would recommend against buying one :)
