Man, it took me a couple of hours to figure out how to pronounce Amalgam, and I still didn't get it right... But anyway, this module is such a beauty, it doesn't matter how you call it :)
Amalgam from Valley, a crazy, deep, divers, stereo signal multiplier, combiner, masher, with 17 different modes like crossfading, ring modulation, signal switching, and more. It has so many cool features that allow you to build whole patches around this module, and add many different colors and timbres to your sound.
In this video, I go through all of its features and through all of its different modes, building a few patches from scratch, and falling in love with it. By the way, you'll get extra points if you can count all the times I say "oh yeah" in this video :)
