I am thrilled to finally show you the amazing Torso S-4, an instrument that is a dream come true for both sound designers and live performers. I have been involved into this project since months and while the firmware is still in beta, I believe it's mature enough to give you a walkthrough of it.
I will try to give you a good sense of what the S-4 can do and I will also build a patch from scratch at the end of this in-depth video!
Enjoy!

Thanks for this - it’s great to finally get a detailed overview of the S-4! It seems like it has some good possibilities, and Torso have demonstrated a positive track record of ongoing improvements with the T-1 (which I really enjoy). That said, between the vague information available last year and the limited initial product specs, I ended up pre-ordering a GR-MEGA instead, but perhaps this is one to keep an eye on when more features are (fully) implemented.

Where's the menu diving on Elektron boxes? You've got a physical button for every menu plus a double press for the second page, and then there's one individual encoder for every on screen parameter. Try navigating some Roland/Korg stuff, that's menu diving! And, btw, the S4 menu structure here resemble A LOT the Elektron one, it's got a better/bigger screen, yes, but the menu concept is (luckily) very similar

Finally let myself watch this (knowing I’d want before hearing a note 😅), wonderful work, Federico! I’m in and excited for the future of the device. Might get in touch to see if they are welcoming further testers to push in strange ways. One idea I had (not just in response to this device but OT, MOOD, this S-4 too) but when a lot of the fun comes from messing with rate, what would be amazing is a sort of end-of-processing tuner. Perhaps the mixer gives a simple reading of the fundamental tone of a given track…being able to line up counterpoint, harmony etc would become so fast. It’s easy and fun to find yourself between notes with these devices, love it, but if there was a tuning ‘compass’ to help with accompaniment…hell yeah. (I do this by matching the rate parameter on OT)

Interestingly, we are getting more and more of these granular machines. GR-1 has already established itself as a success, and the new version is coming out soon (already in pre-order if I am not mistaken), and I just wonder how much it overlaps with S4. Also, it is interesting to see such a hype for hardware granular stuff, since we have so many good software solutions for this (Izotope Iris even, as spectral granular plus tons of other stuff). Tracker by Polyend also offers granular mode, albeit in a different way. In modular world, there is Clouds, Morphagene, Arbhar, Lubadh, and now even granular - based filter like Klavis Grainity. I wonder how much of the S4 is unique and does it warrant the price tag, since it seems to me GR - MEGA much brings more on board albeit for 1k quid heftier pricetag (don't get confused, on Tasty Chips site preorder for GR MEGA is about 600 quid, but that is just a part of it, full price is 1.8 k). It is, indeed, all about how the instrument inspires you and if you like the workflow, I might get this one just to emulate old Tascam 4-5 channel cassette recorder and fill in my nostalgia.

You got interesting results pretty fast tho, that's a good selling point!

I bought a Tasty Chips GR1 and returned it because it did not work properly. I actually had to force them to take it back after they where not willing or able to take care of the problem. They even tried to talk me into selling it on to the next fool at a loss. On paper it still is a dream instrument to me but I have totally lost my faith in the company. It has also made me less trusting towards boutique type companies in general.

Torso have such great designers. And this would sit so nice next to a Digitakt/Digitone/Analog Heat mk.II. So aesthetically pleasing, gotta catch em' all. Try and get your mitts on a Tasty Chips granular processor too sometime, think it would really suit your style. They need some excellent demoes, and you could definitely knock that one out of the part.
@g3cd
@g3cd 3 ай бұрын
Yeah, I was comparing the S-4 to the Tasty Chips GR-1 throughout the video. Problem with the GR-1 is that it doesn't have audio in, recording requires an external audio interface and is very awkward, it has only a single effect that requires deep menu diving, setting the volume for 4 tracks is way more complicated, MIDI implementation sucks and saving a project is virtually impossible as the save menu feels like Windows 95 and tends to loose 2 hours of work. BUT: The granularity of the GR-1 has a better visualizer, it has way more grains and sounds better - more grainy, less washed out - even without delay/reverb etc. Tasty Chips said they'd overworked some functions for their truck-sized new granular synth, so I hope they will burn the old Os after Superbooth and make the GR-1 user interface somewhat acceptable for the first time.

Hey there, great review! I am instantly intrigued and joined the waiting list for the S-4. Let me ask you though: how good is the timestretching engine? From your demo it seems that the timestretcher also pitches the sound up and down? Since selling my old Yamaha RS7000 I have struglled to find a reliable and high quality timestretcher that could create smooth ambient textures out of samples (I'm excluding Paulstretch).

Reading the specs and thinking this would pair really well with a Digitone with the 4 midi tracks.

Cool presentation. Do you think it could be used as a performance mixer like what Ezbot does with the octatrack?

Maybe implementing a midi controller yes, but I think the pace of the s4 is slower and more "meditative' . At least at firmware 1 :)

Very interesting device. Love the minimalistic look, the screen layout, etc. The granular part is wat interests me most, but I think I need to see a few different reviews on this device.

I can only imagine what lorn-esc sounding soundscapes i can create with a few sounds. I have the dirtywave m8, a little roland j-6. Just want to play and travel through the soundwaves... I am so glad i preordered batch 1. And this video only shows a small amount of what it will be able to do.

Feature suggestion, if not already present : allow to change the FX routing order. Opens more creative options.

Is it possibility to route the tracks to a Trough Track used as a master? Maybe doable in a later update.

Will be interesting to see this used in a more deterministic and rhythmic usage case...seems to consolidate a lot of gear into a more performance friendly interface. Had to watch the vid 4 times before I’d fully mapped the S-4 to a creative situation rather than just a feature-set (due to the amount of versatility) and then it just clicked...I get it. I’m getting it :) thanks for the in depth look. Big future for this thing!

This is def a very interesting machine. If this would be open source and let others make unique scripts for it like on Monome Norns, it would be a hit, and make it more future proof and more versatile.

My God! This is truly something special, I have been wanting something like this for a long time and I’m primarily a guitar player. Well done you explain this very well. Question, how would one sample let’s say piano or violin from felt instruments VST? Is this possible?

it has internal memory or 2 line ins so you can sample yourself!

Hey Oora, thanks for the vid mate. 🙏 If you have some spare time I would like to ask you a few questions : -are tracks tied to scenes or whatever they call their "kits", like digis workflows ? I mean for live purpose, it would be great to be able to change track by track to a new scene for smooth transitions. -is it possible to use the timestretch according to a set length/bpm so if many tape tracks play at the same time we could have them play at the same kind of tempo ? Thanks for reading !

Hey! at the moment all tracks are tied to global tempo. The implementation of scenes is not there yet, so can't really tell you about that!
