The Synths of Tame Impala

US 3 prized picks from Kevin Parker's music      16/07/25

The Synths of Tame Impala have become a glorious staple of his music, with soft, rich tones melodically immersed in the warm melting pot of his sound. In this video, Reverb take a look at 3 of his most prized synths; the Roland Juno-106, the Sequential Pro-One and the Roland JV-1080 - the sound they make, and how your can recreate them without the gear. You'll get some sound design tips along the way... but remember, the less you know the better...
