Finnegan and Novation Summit

Finnegan seems particularly keen on the Novation Summit today. From Greg Cole (@emptyvessel) via Facebook.

Novation Summit patch design consultation with Finnegan.
I’m not sure what he’s so concerned about, should have used the Bandpass filter? Too much FM between Osc 3 & 1? Too much reverb (no such thing)? Not enough saturation?
🙀

We at CatSynth are confident that Finnegan will make this patch sing beautifully.

Was fortunate enough to get to watch my parents cat over the past week 🙂 she’s a real sweetheart, but she’s quite critical of my mixes. It’s Been wonderful getting to look after so many pet pals recently 🙂 and willows really grown to love cats. She now whines anytime I don’t let her meet a new cat. She doesn’t really understand that some cats might be afraid of a 70lb dog and she just wants to be friends with them all 🙂

What is the importance of collaborating in your creative process? ✨⠀

That is indeed an interesting question. I feel much of my creativity is solitary, and I do enjoy that. But I also collaborate in myriad ways. This was true even during the depths of the pandemic when I recorded an album with remote collaborators. And I do miss my band and duo performances.
