Bro, that was insane!!! Thank you so much, not only for the beautiful music and the great overview of Morphagene, but also for the introduction to this incredible instrument. I came here because I thought about getting a Morphagene. Now I think about getting a Sape! xD

Thanks, man! Glad you enjoyed it! If you come to Indonesia one day, I can make one for you!
Thank you, a wonderful tutorial on how you use the Morphagene with an acoustic instrument, yes I agree with you, the Sape is a beautiful sounding instrument!

Cheers, Cam for the kind words! I hope you find this tutorial useful! :)
I would really like to what the stereo inputs are coming from to get the acoustic signal into the morphagene and also where the outputs are going. A lot of videos dont mention the whole cable path and what gear you are using, and this would be essential for beginners since its not always obvious. Also what type of cable or connector, TRS, TS, headphone cable, 1/4 inch 3.5 etc...

Thanks for the input, maybe I'll explain that in the next video. :)
Yo this was freaking gorgeous! I’m about to be getting a morphagene real soon but I hadn’t really thought of using live instruments with it yet. Thank you very much for this video.

No worries, man! Glad you like the video. Yeah Morphagene is ace!
great video. this damn thing is responsible getting into modular. so i have a system now without a morphagene in it. i just can't get one. its a fucking curse. I need this thing sooooo bad. arguably the greatest piece of gear i've ever heard in my 30 years gear experience. sitting here in studio watching beautiful videos about it its kinda sad :-( i swear, once i get it, i would never ever give it away.......ever!

It's really great piece of instrument. Let me know how your journey with it!
Beautiful stuff. The Morphagene is such an amazing piece of kit. Can you tell me how you get the instrument into it? I see you have a couple of stackables in the Morphahene's inputs, I assume your Sape has a standard instrument out, so what are you using to go from it to the patch cables?

Couldn't agree more! Sure, here is my chain: from my standard instrument out, the Sape goes to a preamp (this could be anything, but I use the Valeton Acoustic pedal and use Morphagene's auto levelling the purple one - see 2:41), then I multiple the out use the converter from 1/8 to 1/4 and goes stereo into Morphagene. Hope it's clear enough.
You honestly deserve so many more subs with content like this. I wound up with a clouds in my rack and waved goodbye to the prospect of a morphagene, to avoid too many granular functions... Now I find myself reconsidering how many is too many. Have you experimented with using some kind of footswitch to trigger the recording to keep your hands free to play? I imagine just using a clocked pulse every phrase to build upon the layers.

Hi, thanks and sorry for the late reply! Yeah that's the idea. It could be more easier if it was a pedal form. But yeah still looking find a foot switch. Do you have any suggestion?
@ @ritualelectronics Have Pointeuse in a 1U format, but I'm not aware of any of 3U modules at the moment. Something could possibly be rigged up using MI Ears, but I'm not that familiar with all of the functionality. It can generate a gate signal from an input, so maybe even a Piezo on the floor which you can tap next to for a trigger would suffice.
Where can I buy a sape'? I'm in love. I use mostly acoustic guitar and vocals in my Morphagene and I love the results. I love what you are doing here. Beautiful sounds. I use open tunings almost exclusively. I wish I had the money to get a fancy guitar with drones and a harp on it... but I have modules to buy. So, even if I could buy a sape' I probably wouldn't, but man, what a wonderful sound.

Thank you for your kind words! Nowadays the Sape is only available from a luthier in Indonesia and Malaysia, especially in Kalimantan (known internationally as "Borneo") island. Most of the musicians have made it by themselves or it is custom order. Glad you like the sound of it.
can you help me understand how you get the audio from the instrument into the morph? Is it going into the computer first and back out through your interface or a module? Where is the reverb along the chain?

Then the chain from Morphagene goes to WMD Performance Mixer where I have my aux 1 (stereo send) to Endorphines Milky Way. Then the rest of the audio goes to my audio interface. Let me know if you have other questions!
hey man im gonna get my morphagene in 2 or 3 days!! i couldn't be happier. the only thing is there is only 2 videos about how to update the firmware. eventho the morphagene has a sd card slot, you need to play a wav file on it for updating the firmware. i hate that kind of firmware installation so much. my braids and edges didn't work after that kind of procedure. do you know where i need to plug the out and input to update the firmware. i mean in those videos i see 2 patch cable left and right. those are going into my interface i imagine. but where to plug them rightfully?i can even find the corect way on the manual:-( would be great hearing from you.
