As a musician, I've recently started working with analog synthesizers. Digital synths tend to be very alienating devices, at least for me - you don't really program them, you just select a preset that sounds kind of like what you want. Software synths even more so. Then I picked up an Arturia Microbrute, and the visceral thrill of twisting knobs to get the sounds really turned me on! There are no presets. Want to repeat something? Figure out how you did it before, or put an overlay on the keyboard and mark it with ink to get the knob positions. And because knob-twisting is such a part of it, I find myself altering the sounds in realtime. As a guitarist, that sort of intimate tonal control is much more familiar to me.
