This lesson explains subtractive synthesis using Elektron’s Analog Four

If you want a comprehensive guide to how subtractive synthesis works - and how to recreate the sound of a prog-style Minimoog lead patch - then our friend and colleague Scot Solida might be able to help out.

He’s produced a video that takes you through the fundamentals of using an analogue synth using Elektron’s Analog Four and the company’s Overbridge software. Check it out above.
