@@SyllixMusic noitced you got into eurorack while keeping them. Hows that working for you, do you use it seperately or do you patch them together with the eurorack often? Thinking about buying mother32 + subh and the possbility to extend them in the future impacts the purchase a tiny bit.
@@producer1762 I most often use them with the eurorack now, I almost never use them separately. It's so cool being able to sync everything in time and run the Moogs through the other effects, not to mention the many patching possibilities.
Great idea doing the sound demo, with subtitles. So many reviewers are mostly bla bla bla and you barely get an idea what a synth can actually do. You nailed it..
I looove this. Thanks man. Thinking about getting a couple (3?!) of these moogs. Was leaning towards a 32 and dfam but not sure now. This looks like a good start potentially.
This is literally great!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the way you're basically starting from scratch and including all the building of the sequences, changing the wrong notes, showing it actually being synced... Far better than most videos where everything has been pretty much set-up beforehand!! I've subscribed and hope to see more of this sort of thing!!! I need a Subharmonicon now!!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It definitely let's me know I'm heading in the right direction. I was worried something like this might be too boring. I'm really happy you enjoyed this and there'll definitely be more coming in the future.
@@SyllixMusic No worries... One question though... Sounds like a reverb is connected, but I can't see anything leaving the patchbay... Is it from the Subharmonicon audio out on the back, straight into the reverb pedal?
Great video! Very nice to see your process in real time. I have a different setup, but still gives me some ideas for combining different voices and sequences.
I'm hoping moog will release Something new in this format...then I can buy the 4u rack and have mother34, dfam, subharmonicum and the 4th unit all stacked on top of eachother......and JUST noodle all my troubles away...love THIS😍🙏👍
I had a Subharmonicon a while back (and this video was one of the reasons I got it actually) but after buying bigger synths I sadly got rid of it as I wasnt using it that much anymore. Now that I have gotten into modular I REALLY regret ever selling that thing. Such a fantastic combo with the Mother-32 aswell!
Great video! Would love to follow this series. Saving up for a Subharmonicon to complete the trifecta, you're videos are very inspiring and only want me to get it more! Keep it up!
My I ask you regurding your workflow? Which pedal and connection are you using? I’m purchaing the Moog Sound Studio 3 in 2-3 weeks and thinking to get the MPC Live 2 as the main controll center + using it’s reverb capabilities. Later then Hologram Microcosm and Eventide Space or Strymon NightSky. What would you suggest? I’m already using several midi interfaces and Apollo audio interface. I would be lovely to hear your opinion. Since I basically need to create similar sound like you but with more drums and melodic house approach. Fantastic, how you decribe every step you do on your Moogs! Looking forward to hear more from you. Best from Berlin ✌
About to pull the trigger on the SH (just sold some other gear) and hoping that the Behringer Crave will stand in for the M32. It’s supposed to be a decent alternative, it’s got all the patch points- and it is of course a lot cheaper... Got an iPad full of reverbs so I should be ok! And yes- until I get this good more tutorials would be very welcome...
Thanks! The Subharmonicon has 4 tuning options to choose from. You don't really need to do much to get them both in tune. As long as the Mother 32's tuning is dead center they'll be in tune together!
I see some commenting on acquiring the "trifecta" of M32+DFAM+Subharmonicon. I intended to buy the M32+DFAM Studio set but then Moog announced the Trio with the SubH. Will I be missing out if I save the $700 and go for the Duo or will I thank myself later for going for the $2K "3" Studio? What will I miss out on if I don't get the SubH? Thanks...I am a definite newbie but enjoying my journey (presently have the Werkstatt-01 w/CV Expander and Arturia Keystep). Thanks!
I don't own a DFAM, so I can't comment on the trio, but from my experience I don't think you will be missing out on anything if you don't end up getting the SubH. I would think about more of what you would like to be able to do with a small synth setup. The mother 32 is very versatile and sounds amazing and has a sequencer. Paired with the DFAM you'd have a nice little setup with the ability to create percussion sounds. I started with a mother 32 and then a SubH more because I make ambient music and the SubH seemed like the right choice for me. I would start small and get to know that system, then you'll start thinking about what you could do if you had this synth, or that pedal or that effect, and then that's how I would expand from there. No need to rush and spend all your money. That's my opinion. Good luck!
The COOLEST man! Thx! Just getting into desk top synths and am thinking of going Moog, now I know I’m going Moog. Question, the Mother 32 has a keyboard,. How are you generating tones on the SubH?
Thanks! Both synths have built in sequencers. The mother 32 has a 32-step sequencer and the SubH has two 4-step sequencers. Each step can determine the pitch, as well as it's 6 oscillators.
@@vr4ever645 I have the Korg Minilogue XD ... Don't need Valhalla anymore, as you can Code your own FX or get them from the web. But the Moog Sound ist simply stellar even without FX.
@@StarshipCaptainNemo awesome! I too have the minilogue XD and even ordered the nts-1 as an effect machine (should arrive tomorrow), since I love the effects of the minilogue xd and wanted to bring them to my moogs.... 👍😊
This is fantastic! How do you get those plucky sounds to ring out so long on the m32? It sounds like the decay on the filter is very quick but the notes last until the next.
Thank you! The decay of the notes is turned up, and the reverb also adds to the tail of each note. Because of the random voltage being sent from the assign output of the mother 32 into the cutoff filter, it has the effect of sounding much shorter than it actually is because the filter's value changes so rapidly. These dramatic changes are synced to the tempo so I believe this also adds to the effect.
@@SyllixMusic Yeah for sure, I meant before you patched the random voltage to the filter it sounded pretty plucky. Did you have the VCF mod turned up at all then?
@@SyllixMusic Is there a posibility to have a a photo of the moogs pannels to "copy " the set up ? would be awesome to understand some stuff of the set up
No it can't. It has 2 super simple 4 step sequencers that can run on the clock, or a division. No multiplication here. However, you can use the external trigger input, so you could borrow the mother32's gate output for ratcheting. (I use the tiptop circadian rhythms zoomed view and an or gate for this - which works nicely)
Hi Greg, I tune the Subharmonicon first and then move on to the mother 32. I'm preparing to make a more in depth video about how I work with the Subharmonicon.
@@gregburnell8454 I only have a basic understanding of music theory, and I don't create music with any key in mind. I just use my ears and go with what sounds good. The only thing I can say is that I try to keep each oscillator tuned to a 3rd,4th,or 5th from each other.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I've only used the assign out for random and clock. But now I just clock out of the SubH. I know there's much more you can do with the assign out, I just haven't explored that far yet.
@@SyllixMusic Have had my M32 for a couple of years, lots to learn, Got into eurorack as well and am constantly thinking about what I can do with it all. Even if I don't always get to power it up. Also saw on your about info we are on the same rock. Small world.
The first time I saw a modular rack demo in a music store, I was surprised how small the modules were! Personally I feel the Moog semi-modular series are just right.
