Behringer Neutron Tutorial ( FM Generative - Quantum Realm Patch ) 

congrats....never bored with a neutron

@@dillipphunbar7924 very true

Nice it is definitely a bit creepy. Someone told me they would listen to it while walking at night haha. Neutron is quite a deep synth.

Thank You. Glad it was understandable

The meris is a great sounding pedal. I would like to make a spaceship sound track one day!

@@avrilcadabra Absolutely. The pitch control on the Meris Mercury 7 pedal is where it really shines. Definitely make a space ship sound track using the Mercury7, and feed it into the fx chain. Sync the Neutron to another synth, like the Microfreak. I will be watching. Love from New Hampshire USA! 🎛 🔈 🔉 🔊

Thanks . Definitely a good synth for mad creations. Tonne of videos like this on the channel if you want to see more with the Neutron.

I could not find any videos either especially not of polychain. Which works quite well. Got 26 cables to use now too!

Me too! Have not had much time yet

Only the synths talk here Ronald.

Cheers let us know if you run into any problems

Also the thumbnails, looks very awesome and inviting

I dont think it would be anything defective. I have 2 neutrons and they are both a little different. Since learning this I try to avoid making tutorials that require very precise knob positions. I had done a previous FM tutorial that was more straight forward than this one. Basically osc2 out into osc1 in. Set osc mix to 1. Osc2 range to 3 leds. Put them both on Sine shape. And move oscillator 2 until you hear the bell tone. Its normal for the patch in tutorials to not sound right until the patchbay is done. If this doesn't help ill follow the tutorial on my other neutron and see if i run into any problems recreating it

@@avrilcadabra Thank you so much for your help! Last night I read dozens of others echoing your comment about the units being different. I'll go through to the end of the patch and I think I can get the sound. The only issue I kept facing after I went back to the patch was a high noise floor with the VCA turned up so high, otherwise I could hear the FM sounds, just buried beneath a white noise floor. I read from others that this could simply be interference with other power supplies which would make sense. My studio has power supplies everywhere and I've already had grounding issues with a guitar amp. All of this makes sense and would explain the noise floor on the VCA. Still, I'm gonna go back to this later today. Thanks again! Just reaching out to me has been incredibly helpful.

@Jacob V. Burg, have you managet identify the issue? I seem to have the same problem, and I have the power supplies and audio lines pretty separate, so no interfence in here. In my case, I can hear sounds only when I have the filte high up? Could this be from the inside potentiometer that might be tuned a little darker?

@@treizerotrei I wish I could help you but I never figured it out. I don't notice other issues with my unit but I've put it through paces and back in the last two years. It has been so long since doing this patch tho that I haven't had the chance to encounter it again. Sorry if that isn't helpful!

They had a naming contest for a new semi modular that would be similar to the neutron. Think Atmos won. Looking forward to hearing more about it. Agree. Wish they did more original stuff but most people ask them for obscure clones

@@avrilcadabra Similar to the Neutron sounds good but different would be better I think. I wish they'd upgrade their clunky sequencer and add some decent reverb. A 3 oscillator ladder filter mono plus an inbuilt Arturia-like sequencer and a patchbay with more mults and individual control of the oscs. Not too much to ask?

Have heard of others having this issue. If you post a video in Facebook neutron group people will tell you for sure. If so will need to return and swap it for another one

Let's us now how it goes

Yeah who needs presets. More neutrons!

@@avrilcadabra That's my thinkin 😜

I don't see why not. Though I have never done it that way. It is definitely fun patching them together in polychain unison or sequencing them separately. My next video (couple of days) has vcf out of 1 going into the other then modulating them both to have the sound move about the stereo field. I like doing that sort of thing. I think anything stereo is great with 2 neutrons

FM modulation between your polyphonic voices might sound pretty wild! I've got a Neutron and a Crave wired up to each other into one big 3-osc monosynth and the FM timbres coming out of that are ginormous.

They are all calibrated a bit different being analogue, after I got a second one I tried to make sure the tutorials going forward were more tolerable to variations in neutrons. It will most likely be the big tuning knobs on this patch (even the temperature will affect it)

@@avrilcadabra thanks for the answer. Yeah I thought it could be something like that. I did get them close at times. Also I don’t think I took into account that the patch is kinda cyclic, going through forms/frequencies etc. Thanks for doing this vid btw.

Thanks! There is a flow chart diagram on page 21 of the manual that includes an attenuator section, it shows LFO uni goes to attenuator2 then attenuator 2 goes to 3 destinations, pw1, pw2 and att1. Pretty easy to miss even if you have read the manual. Maybe it is for the worse as it's probably the one of the biggest complaints I see about the neutron that the lfo is affecting the sound. But it will always be mod depth, att2 and or att1 is open.

it is just the neutron, you can see the unused midi plug next to the volume knob, there is an LED to the left of the midi port that lights up if it receives midi from 5 pin din or usb.

always a good thing to do!

It's sound, but who am I to judge.

@@avrilcadabra Check out Subotnick's "Silver Apples of the Moon" from 1968. This kind of music has a respected history. Bonus points for checking out the 3 CD set "Ohm: The Early Gurus of Electronic Music", which has examples going back to the 1920s. You're doing great.
