Bass for Breakfast
Don’t let the odd name and wacky interface fool you – the Bacon and Eggs mono synth is a bass heavy tool with a few handy effects throw in for good measure. Apart from the usual set of sawtooth, square and triangle waveforms, we’ve got some complex filter / LFO combinations and a wicked flanger to draw more harmonics into the mix.
