Sometimes life is good. Very rarely, it’s even especially generous. As in the case of our Studiologic Sledge 2.0 “XL” synthesizer. The brief history behind it: After completing the Studiologic Sledge BLACK Edition – a panther to be tamed test report, we yearned for such an instrument “with” a panel that can be elevated. A luxurious version of Sledge 2.0 / Sledge BLACK Edition, so to speak.
As by chance, there was such an instrument for sale in Italy. Not from Studiologic themselves, but from a private seller – the pianist Simone Sgarbanti …
The modification was not done by himself, but by Emanuele Raspa. So, what is the Studiologic Sledge 2.0 “XL”? Take a regular Sledge 2.0, cross it with the chassis similar to a Moog Voyager XL … there you go. The result looks excellent …
Emanuele did a great job! The instrument’s ergonomy is now just as good as its sound. That wooden case turns Sledge 2.0 / Sledge BLACK Edition in a true studio synthesizer …
Who knows, maybe Studiologic will offer the Sledge in a similar version one day? People would like it – we’re sure …
