New Pedals: Flower Pedals Hosta

Earlier this year we came to the (in hindsight, rather obvious) realization that synths are more or less 90% just effects. If you take out the oscillators (and whatever's needed to trigger them), all you are left with is signal manipulation. In subtractive synths (i.e. 95% of the synths on…Click on the title for more
