Summary of Contents for Red Witch SYNTHOTRON

  • Page 1 Such hours have I labored…. such blood sweat and tears spilt in the creation of this small, wonderful object that you now hold in your hot little hands. The Synthotron is an all analog (100% pure analog) synthesizer, envelope filter/ sample hold pedal.
  • Page 2 Beautiful. Be warned. Abandon hope of order all ye who enter here. The key when playing the Synthotron is to approach the guitar as a new instrument – it no longer sounds like a guitar – it no longer responds like a guitar – therefore…. It is something else!!!! Try adjusting your pick attack, try using your neck pick up, try backing off your guitars volume, try increasing your guitars volume….
