Its always the metal fans that get into synths hahah (not every synth guy is a metal guy but almost every metal guy will show interests in synths). Before getting to know synthwave, darksynth and such i also listened to metal quite a bit. Electronic music can be even more badass, raw and brutal than metal if done correctly. Its mind boggling when a song with no lyrics, only electronic sounds makes me feel more emotions than an expirienced singer vigorously speaking a language i understand. You know a real master made the song if you feel it, makes you appreciate their work. I reccomend that you listen to tainted empire by perturbator, great song, really metal. One of the best from that great, agressive and a little bit edgy album.

I'll Modulargrid.com set up what you would want, save up on a modular case, whatever it may be, and then invest on the modules itself. Patients, afterwards you can just buy other modules. Expensive when you think about it on the short run, but less if you start small and look at it on the long run.

The thing I love about modular, other than the sheer amount of customization it offers, is that it’s so incredibly easy to make interesting sounds, whether it be crispy FM lead synths, Gurgly growling acid basses, soft airy pads, or something completely random and unstructured that serves no real musical purpose. And simple and seemingly insignificant actions can lead to entirely different sonic spaces. Turning a single knob, pressing a single button, flipping a single switch, making a single new connection, loading a single file, everything has the potential to take you to places you never thought possible. Places you never knew even existed. Places you never knew you would like. Places that nothing else can really come close to. And there’s no real limit to the places it can take you. Plus if a module breaks it doesn’t kill the whole thing.

Something important not mentioned in the video: that system behind Andrew is BONKERS, and you don't need anything near that big to make great stuff and have a lot of fun. Don't be scared by the crazy size! I have a little 84 hp case (about a 25th the size of Andrew's) and it can do all kinds of fun stuff. Going even smaller like 60 or even 40 hp is also totally reasonable, it just requires a little more planning of which modules you'll choose so you can build something cool in the space. Knobs has a few videos about making smaller, more focused systems like this... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-03HWSF1Mf28.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cgL4v2NfmhM.html

Just don’t want people to get the wrong idea that his entire board of units is 1 single thing you buy.

This was probably the best introductory video on this topic I've seen. Reducing things to the idea that this is electricity, not sound, and that it's all just up and down = the right way to do it. These things are often taken for granted. Something I usually add for people is the fact that pretty much all modules do the same thing -- manipulations of the up and the down. The most obvious, intended use of a module (ie. what's on the label) seems to work against people learning to use them creatively.

Really great video as always, very fun to watch with your clever and creative editing, as well as very well explained both through talking as well as visual demonstrations. And I also want to quickly point out how much I love that short and sweet jump into the science of it at 1:46 about how sound is produced in general and then interpreted by us. The slow and harsh noise build up as the science behind it gets a bit heavier is a very nice comedic touch. That short moment in the video shows that you really do enjoy learning about many things and really want to know not just why things are, but also how they are made in the first place, in this case with sound. Again, awesome video :)

1:40 I watched this part 4 times and took notes. That's a killer explanation. I'm still thinking about the idea of a "pattern of energy".

I think I would've liked to hear more how changing the wave shape changed the sound, especially when the triggering and inverting/offsetting stuff was happening, but otherwise, a very helpful intro. Thanks Andrew. :)

I’ve never been so fascinated by the control of sound waves like this. Not only that but the fact that I was able to understand what you were explaining is also very fascinating and shocking. Thank you to exposing me to this and making it easy to understand :)

Thanks for the video, your knowledge of the subject is incredible and to say your synth is impressive is an understatement! I saw a video by Emily Hopkins, who runs her harps through guitar effects, and she built a Modular synth and did a video on it and I knew I had found my next musical project.

Appreciate this even though i'm not looking to start with modular, but rather was looking for some basic knowledge about how a regular synth is constructed. This provided great insights to how a regular synth is constructed and how the voltage is working its way through the circuits. Valuable information in order to know what really happens when i turn a knob on a synth and get a better view of it in my head. Thank you!

I honestly keep coming back to this video, even much further into my modular/eurorack journey. It’s crazy watching this as a complete newb and being super confused and coming back a year plus later and thinking the video is relatively basic. That’s not shade either, that’s me realizing the Andrew and other folks like him have taught me a lot! Anyhow, Andrew, have you ever considered having either a video series or another channel just creating various patches? Some of your techniques are so gorgeous sounding, especially the digital rain type sounds you make. I’d personally love to see how you made that happen! I have some ideas but I still have a lot to learn myself. Thanks either way man!

I didnt really understand how modular worked untill this video because i had no idea what all the wires and holes were for, but now i see that its not just for changing the sound produced, but you can also use it to change the way a different function behaves.

This one video will be one that I will be rewatching on set dates just to remember what it is I'm looking for in life. Period. Pure greatness! Life calls so I will watch the rest later. From the beginning of course. Love

@The0Stroy 4 года назад
@J Son I mean - what constitutes for you that someone can be called "producer"? He is one because he produces music. Same as Jazza is graphic artist. That they are also youtubers, and creates stuff mostly for their channels - doesn't change anything. It's like saying that Bob Ross was "TV persona" not "painter", lol.

Skullbonk you can make it yourself, then it is not as expensive. But then you spend the rest of your life soldering new modules for your modular.... :D that’s what I do nowadays. ;)
