In his latest video, synthesist and composer Matt Johnson (Jamiroquai) shares his take on the new Melbourne Instruments Delia synthesizer.

Delia builds on the motorized control panel and voice architecture of Melbourne Instruments’ Nina. Delia introduces a 49-key velocity and aftertouch sensitive keyboard, new multi-mode analog filters, high pass and low pass resonance control, 3-stage overdrive, and more modulation possibilities.

Johnson offers an overview of the Delia, along with lots of sound and performance demos. He also offers his take on the Delia, saying that the motorized controls are ‘absolutely wonderful’, that the synth is built like a tank, and that, “from a sound design point of view, it’s just a dream”.
