I’m back to say thanks so much for talking the workflow through so excellently. And sharing the patch is so helpful and allowed me to jump right in but understand how it worked. I’ve really enjoyed modifying the samples and messing with synched random LFOs. Your sample choices are classic and perfect and the demo is clearly informed by understanding of the genre. Respect to you and thanks again!

Omg new update breathes so much life into it

@paxson2000 Год назад

Yo, thank you for this awesome patch idea!! Feels very intentional, I come up with cool patches but usually in more of a happy accident type way. You are a true master of the Freak!!

@BoombapBodega Год назад

Dope video! The Microfreak update looks amazing. Great information on this video. New sub!

@grandmasterjo1 Год назад

This is almost magical. The best I’ve seen what the MF ver 5 can do and it does so much Will follow the tutorial and hope to get desired results Thanks again 👍👍

@KiR_3d 7 месяцев назад

Wow! Really neat tricks! I've didn't thought about having a bass using the self-resonance on the filter! Once I'll have a time I'll re-work my own drum loops and make drum sets for Microfreak! It's the instant jamming machine now!

About to purchase the microfreak. This little synth does sooo much!

I regret buying it in January, the midi control center app is not intuitive to use. I went back to using my minilab mk2 bc i bought the microfreak to help me produce songs

I have just load up the first two bars of the Amen Break. Its so much fun

@d..d6201 Год назад

It definitely is! What I do on top of that is demixing the breakbeat into kick, snare and cymbals as shown here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eJf9Jptq7VY.html and then chopping it into single shot drum hits. That gives me the flexibility to completely re-sequence the whole thing and still have the original sound and feel of the breabeat.

@neonblack211 26 дней назад

and in the matix editor on the xcree, I cant get thenoption of keyarp>cycling envelop. Cyclin envelope is always on top

@OCEANSINSPACE Год назад

sick man! Just updated. Gotta figure out how to put samples in, the manager right?

@d..d6201 Год назад

You need to use the MIDI control center. You can import samples there and then drag and drop them to any of the slots on the MicroFreak, you can even overwrite the factory samples if needed.

@radiochad5702 11 месяцев назад

Hello ! Great tutorials but there is something I can't understand :D How do you put CyclEnv as a destination ? I can only add rise fall hold or amound by turning their respective knobs, but I can't figure out how to put the "general" CycleEnv in the dest o_O

@radiochad5702 11 месяцев назад

I just figured it out lol for those wondering you have to position the blinking dot in the matrix on CyclEnv>Pitch and then learn it by pressing ASSIGN1 and turning the Matrix knob and do it again with ASSIGN2.

@oddsurfboards 5 месяцев назад

what sort of arcane magic is this? so glad i just purchased one. not sure i could ever follow this. could you export as a project / profile - i forget what they are called

@d..d6201 5 месяцев назад

I can do this, it will still be hard to reproduce since you need to load the samples that I used into the same slot as me. The patches on the MiniFreak are stored independently from the samples.

@OpiateClubInc Год назад

MicroFreak has drum samples ?? I have an monologue, in monologue i can sequence some combinations of noise wave and sawtooth to emulate a drum loop, but sooo synthetic. The MicroFreak is polyphonic and has drum samples? I NEED THIS!

@d..d6201 Год назад

The MicroFreak is 4-voice paraphonic, only one analogue filter. The ability to play and manipulate samples was just added few weeks ago with a firmware update.

@radiochad5702 11 месяцев назад

Ok I still have a question tho :D I really worked on that and can get the loop working on C3 which is in the middle of the keyboard for me (not like you) but also if I push another key it will mix the drum samples with the other sounds I have in the samples table, so indeed when I use the LFO it gives me very unpleasant results. I really can't find out the reason since I did exactly everything you said I THINK. The only thing I could see is if the 2 CyclEnv dest are different like -100 on pitch and -66.6 on something else, otherwise I don't know ^^

@d..d6201 11 месяцев назад

Did you set the mod-matrix assignment of keyboard to sample selection to 100 percent?

@danielasebsen787 3 месяца назад

Brilliant

@oddsurfboards 5 месяцев назад

its taken me two hours to manage to get key/arp settings for assign1 & 2 but can only seem to play one sample. could you go into more detail of how this section operates please

@d..d6201 5 месяцев назад

To make things easier, you can download this patch and the bank of samples from my GitHub page: github.com/dmr-songquito/MicroFreak-Patches/blob/main/Drumbreakz.mfpz github.com/dmr-songquito/MicroFreak-Patches/blob/main/BreakbeatsSeparatedDrumHits.mfsbz

@oddsurfboards 5 месяцев назад

Would it be possible to split the keyboard with any engine? Say have an octave for a preset and another for the vocoder? I used the circuit tracks to trigger and this would if possible be awesome

@d..d6201 5 месяцев назад

What you can do is to assign the Key / Arp in the mod matrix to the Type knob. You'll get different engines across different zones on the keyboard. But it is kind of hard to adjust the right modulation amount to get a precise split, it's kind of trial and error.

@neonblack211 26 дней назад

when I set the keyu/arp pitchmatrix to -100 my samples still get pitched chromatically?? what am I mising??

@bodie-5295 Год назад

I really want to play breakbeats on the MF, but I can't figure out how you put the samples onto the keys. The website linked shows a bunch of code that I don't really know how to turn into audio and then to put it on the MF.

@damiendelga Год назад

Your video is fascinating, but I can't get your result at all, even after several tries. How do you assign a sample to C3 (around 5:00)? I can't do it at all, even though I've loaded my samples. In fact, I'm having trouble using the Assign keys on the matrix because in Key/Arp I only have "Type" or "Vcopar1" "Vcopar2" "Vcopar3". I'm going round in circles... Could you help me? Thanks a lot

@d..d6201 Год назад

You need to press shift + type to get to the sample assignment mode. Then, the sample you select with the type knob will be the one mapped to C3. In my case, it is the first kick drum sample, I loaded all the other drum hits into to following slots, so they will be mapped to the keys above. Once the sample selection is on, you can also use it as an assignable slot in the mod matrix (called sample). Pressing shift + type again brings you back to the normal mode, where you can select different oscillator types. The sample selection will stay the same.

I have the vocoder edition but it's such a headache to get audio out of the external soeaker and the sampler doesnt appear while scrolling the type knob after updating to 5.0 I hate this synth i litterally never use it its such a headache to configure Especially because im using a audio interface and a aux speaker :/
