You get to know what some synths are good at, which means a quick hunt through the presets will reveal something that can be tweaked everything needs tweaking.
Other times I have an idea for a sound and just go build it, Modular synths are great for that.
Occasionally a synth will have the right sound, they tend to be the likes of the M1 or the Wavestation or other ROMPLER type synths.
Nearly every synths I have, have knobs and if one has a knob one must play mustn't one
Thanks for the listen and the comment.
