Please note this is just a short intro to the Analogue Solutions Tereshkova. The demos barely scratch the surface. I've spent very little time with it so far, but already I've gotten some crazy sounds! It's similar to their Vostok unit, but instead of VU meter and pin matrix, there's 1 extra LFO and 2 extra VCA's. Yes, MIDI pitch bend does go to CV and I was able to make pitch bend 2 semitones. No, oscillator 3 is not digital.

The overall tone is generally aggressive, although it can definitely be tamed if you watch your levels. It's obviously not as comprehensive as a full-blown modular, but I really love the suitcase vibe, and it's compact which is important because space is a factor in my studio. You know what else is awesome about it? It has loopable envelopes, onboard 8-step sequencer, 2 adapters to 1/4 inch, and a sweet X-Y joystick that feels substantial. Overall build quality is pretty good, everything seems solid. But even though it's supposedly a "suitcase", it's clearly not meant to be transported without outside protection. I should get a proper case for it. More posts to follow.
