Novation Summit meets Sequential Take 5

Enjoying the binaural stereo modes on the V2.0 update for the Novation Summit! Also making use of that grittier new delay! Make sure to listen w headphones • Lush analog pad courtesy of the wonderful Sequential Take 5 • Video shot by Ben Willis

This is using the "Alternating" Binaural mode on the Novation Summit, so you'll hear the notes change position in the stereo field with each press - pretty cool!

No external FX have been added - everything you hear is coming form the synths.

Summit is such a classic. I dont think people even realize it yet lol. Great as always.

[mglohmeyer]

I love synth brass sounds like that, and the ping pong really enhances it. Perfect example why the Summit is my favorite synth. Beautiful combo with the Take 5!

Inspiring first video of the day! Love the way you closed down the filter on the Take 5 at the end... sweet.

Great performance ! The new Summit FW update is juste dope ! Great channel by the way...

[malcolmjacobson]

Lush sounds! 😎 I need to go and find out about this "binaural" mode on the Summit now. Wonder how it compares to the Udo Super 6 🤔

i have never subscribed so fast to a channel.

I have tried Novation Summit in a music shop and I must say that it sounds almost as an analog synth...not so fat as an Oberheim or a Prophet but not so far and the keyboard has a very nice touch.

It is a pleasure to listen to you. Sorry if my comment is not on the subject of the main motivation of the video. I am an amateur who, after a lifetime of work, can finally devote himself to music played with synt. I hope you don't mind, but I'm using this video of yours to improve myself. I have a take 5 and I put program number 808 like you did and I tried to modify it in order to make it the same as possible. I use the same chords and try to build a solo (hem .. for now I can only get the cats away ...) But I want to improve. I don't have the Novation, but a gorgeous Pro 3 that goes in a Strymon blueSky.
I hope to improve at least a little. for now I listen carefully to the really good ones. Greetings from Italy.

Vangelis, eat your heart out. This was amazing.

[TheFjMartinmusic]

A perfect classic analog sounds...and perfect lead solo!! one question I want to buy one synth, love Summit and look good Take 5, I play ambient music near Vangelis....which one is better Mike Pensini?

[solomonjenkins]

wow the summit...just wow. I never heard it like this....

[ZozillaThaGreat]

Came for the sound, seen and heard a performance from an artist !!
Mike, wondering if i go Take 5 / rev 2 / Teo 5 or peak i have a korg Minilogue Xd that i prefered to a lot of more expensive stuff (raw tones) but limited in some ways, sure the digital osc give it an edge other some name i cited, but modulation and sound not quit the same !!!

[MaverickM]

Fpga + analogue osc. synths are quite underestimated, because in many review videos they sound weak and weird. But this video proves that not the synth but the patch and the player what really counts. The synth itself is a pure gem. I own the peak and I love it. The factory patches are meh, and I am not good enouh to create my own patches (I can do some cool stuff but more or less using trial/error workflow. ) But there are numerous patch sets available for purchase for both peak and the summit. Also novation provides the longest update support I’ve ever seen.

[victorvargas]

Mike, you can play on a single string and it still would sound wonderful!

[ChrisPx]

What is the keyboard right under the Steichfett?

[MarianoPerez]

Whats a good all arounder to learn synthesis on? I mostly like electronic music, everything from trance, to ambient, and the blade runner/dune stuff. I was thinking of the summit.

[dcarmich]

Beautifully relaxing! Are those Jaspers stands you are using?

[PingPong]

Sick lead on the Summit.
Happy with the update so far?

[PingPong]

Did you modify the Simply Sublime patch on the summit? Less attack, delay, etc?
