I’m new to synthesizers. I’ve played with a microkorg for 15 years! but never had an interest how anything worked until now. This week I learned how to use the microkorg, I figured out how to make some bell/gong timbres, and now I’m trying to model a string, which is difficult! Not a string ensemble but like a single violin. It’s been fun

I recently started recording full takes instead of sequencing/sampling, and it was very humbling to learn how much I need to improve as a player.

If you find the right teacher and are willing to do the practice, lessons will go a long way.
