The second of my deep dive videos into the Make Noise Maths (and Behringer Abacus) is going to focus on pitch generation (Generative sequencing & Arpeggios) and manipulation to add accents through Vibrato & Portamento. Who needs a sequencer when you have Maths?
The diagrams in the video are available on Google docs: bit.ly/maths202

I’m just getting into modular after years of standalone synthesizers. Thank you kindly for putting these videos out there, it makes the transition much easier and less daunting

@omnidivergence9846 2 года назад

Using Maths as a master controller for sequencing accents is genius. So much fun!

@letsgetyucky 2 года назад

The Arpeggiator tip alone has brought me hours of joy and discovery. Thanks for the awesome tutorial series! I’ve tried to understand and recreate these concepts in VCV Rack using purpose build modules but that never really clicked with me in a practical sense. The fact that your videos start from first principles and use the fundamental basics makes it so much easier to understand and to replicate with whatever it is you have on hand.

@SoundVoltage 2 года назад

Wow, cool, I'm glad you're finding them useful! I still use the arpeggiator technique all the time!

Your understanding of Maths, the way you explain things so succinctly, and the fact it's all freely available... You're definitely one of the Gods of Eurorack! Thank you so much for everything, this lesson especially absolutely blew me away with how much it's possible to get done with just one Maths in your rack! A must-watch series for anyone even remotely interested in modular synthesis!

awesome video, this series is really helping me understand maths more and make it more manageable. thank you so much!!

@SoundVoltage 2 года назад

Thanks! Maths is such a multi-purpose beast, it can be hard to really get a handle on - I'm glad these videos are helping.

@kirkyoung4147 2 года назад

dare I say best patch vids on youtube? Absolutely love the content and I learned a lot!

@SoundVoltage 2 года назад

Wow! Thank you so much. A lot of effort goes into them, so I'm really happy that people find them valuable!

@piotrjanowski454 2 года назад

By far the best explanation not only of Maths itself but also modular in genral. Thank You for making these tutorials!

lol this might be the first time in my life I subbed to someone before the video even started playing XD

It makes a big difference in making things more musical, that's for sure! Thanks for watching.

@Hessencemusic 2 года назад

I cannot say enough thank your time and this amazing tutorials. Thank you so much. You are helping us "A LOT" getting deeper in modules like this. May I ask you for making a video about what you consider the most under-rated modules and why we should include them? from someone with your knowledge that would be really helpful. I see that you have a lot of NLC modules.. not too many videos about them and with not the most attractive faceplates, but may be they deserve more ;)

@SoundVoltage 2 года назад

Well thank you so much for the nice words, I'm really glad you are finding them helpful! I have done a couple of videos for NLC (Triple Sloths & Let's Splosh) but they do deserve more attention certainly! The only problem with a video about underrated modules is that other people might find them overrated :) Everyone's experience with Eurorack is so different. But maybe I can figure out something for a video. :) Thanks again!

@The_Digital_Arts_World 2 года назад

Many, many thanks MCPM for putting together a very instructive video on Maths which is a staple module in a Eurorack Modular; but, also a very challenging module to understand and to incorporate into patches (at least for this old guy). In discovered this video via Reddit this morning and wanted to thank-you for the very instructive video. It isn’t often that such work is done in a professional manner complete with downloadable diagrams. You have won me as a follower. I just have one tiny suggestion though (which I am sure are in the diagrams); but a simple list of the modules used in the demos under the description and discussion topic time tables would be of great help as well. Thanks for all your work‼️

@SoundVoltage 2 года назад

Thank you so much! I was torn about listing the modules just because which oscillator I'm using doesn't really make a difference - but I also know that we gearheads love seeing the details. :) Also, that really is an awesome oscillator :) I will add a list to the description and put a slide into the diagrams with the info. Thanks!

@The_Digital_Arts_World 2 года назад

@@SoundVoltage Thank-you!

@The_Digital_Arts_World 2 года назад

@@SoundVoltage Thanks for adding the list of modules. I know some of us realize that things like an oscillator source could be used, or Quantitizers, etc. But, it is great to see what others are using and prefer to use. When you talk about sequencers, "Katy bar the door!". So darned many of them out there and I confess, I have quite a few of them going from simple to complex. The list really helps not only us old foggies; but, those who are building their system. This is a huge help! THANK-YIOU.

@rhampton1914 2 года назад

You got that right....😁😁😁,,, the Least well understood. For sure.... I'm probably going to get one sooner or later...I was debating whether I should get the Befaco version but I really like Make Noise products because I already have a few already... thanks for your video

@SoundVoltage 2 года назад

Rampage is fine, but i didn't like it quite as much, so I gave it to someone. Now I have 2 Maths and I use them all the time.

@jonathanyoung6397 2 года назад

I just got a Maths and it’s very scary but also wonderful, but your video series is phenomenal, so I have liked and subscribed - thank you! One question though please, why do you not use the dedicated unity output for channel one at 7:50? Is there something I’m missing? Thank you again!

@SoundVoltage 2 года назад

Thanks, I'm glad you're finding them useful! The reason I'm not using the unity output is that I need to use the SUMming bus to add together the initial pitch (Ch1) and the vibrato part (Ch4 double-attenuated through Ch3). That unity output would just be the incoming pitch voltage with nothing added to it.

@kostantinosmag2986 Год назад

Nice… :)

@chitlun Год назад

Great vid man... However, I'm s little bemused. I wired up the arpeggiator setting exactly as it is in your digram and there's no V/Oct coming from ch1 so how do you get anything other than. either a continuous note or silence until ch2 does it's thing every 3rd step or so?

@SoundVoltage Год назад

Channel 1 is really just acting as the clock. The rise & fall values affect the timing, and then the EOR output is the trigger for the clock divider. There isn't any v/oct coming out of ch 1. That's all out of Ch 4.

@pawnotdaw4559 2 года назад

I don’t think I’ve ever used Maths as an envelope

@SoundVoltage 2 года назад

Ah! You're the one! :)

@andmoreagain Год назад

this is well done but its all just really explaining different ways to clock a quantizer...

@nigelh2 2 года назад

I really want to learn how to use Maths. Unfortunately, this tutorial goes way too fast (2 to 3 times) for me and there are very few other Maths tutorials, which are also very dificult to follow.

@SoundVoltage 2 года назад

Unfortunately if I went 2-3 times slower, the video would be 2-3 times as long :) I do have all the diagrams available separately if that would help, at bit.ly/maths202

@gremoov7703 Год назад

Hi 👍🏻… have you got an insta ?

@seansnyder7744 Год назад

I'd be hard pressed to spend $290 on a maths just to end up using it as an envelope generator or an LFO :/

@SoundVoltage Год назад

Hopefully videos like this series will show people there are a lot more options than just that.

@seansnyder7744 Год назад

@@SoundVoltage These types of videos are EXACTLY what the community needs imo :) Maths is incredibly powerful, but unfortunately it's far too easy to just end up using it as an attenueverter and envelope. Thanks for the time you put in to making this videos!
