In his latest loopop video, host Ziv Eliraz takes an in-depth look at the new Pittsburgh Modular Taiga, a 3-oscillator semi-modular paraphonic synthesizer that can be used standalone, or as a 60HP panel in a larger Eurorack system.
Eliraz describes Taiga as what Bob Moog & Don Buchla might have created, if they had collaborated on a synth in the 70s.

Ooooo, it’s wavy hands day!
I like the design and concept!
It’s a step in the right direction, but about $200 out of the Fun Zone.
So great to see a synth doing something other than trying to be a relic of the past! This is the first synth in a long time that I feel can deliver something new to the sonic palette.
It’s a ‘Moochla’?
Or Buchloog.
Nicest new analog synth I’ve seen/heard in a while, regardless of price, and the price seems very fair. Nice job.
yes, this is good – keep the analog designs moving forward into more innovations
