Program a great Moog Bass Patch! 

We get great lessons from a pro for the price of watching a couple of ads and people still complain. The nerve!

....Matt, stick with building an audience, don’t do memberships, have a tip jar for live streams if required. If you can, don’t swamp audience with pop-in ads on pre-recorded. Have a low cost Patreon of £1 per month (more folks will sign up for that rate). Produce less content at higher quality, which will be more than enough workload when you can’t or don’t want to do it. Don’t e-beg, your core viewers are most likely in the same position as you. Always stay happy, don’t burn-out in the edit, form a time/content template for fast turnaround.

Ads are fine! In my experience running a channel, most people recognize the ads support you the creator. Honestly, I'm just grateful you're sharing this stuff on YT!

Please keep it free, such a great gift all these videos really appreciate it

do what you like, the people who truly value you will be happy with whatever you decide. thanks as always for sharing

This is the best video explaining how to do this on the internet, been looking all over but shoulda just went straight to this page! Your the man Matt, wish you’d sneak over to nz with the lads while you’re all in Australia

Hey Matt, I’ve got no problem with watching ads in exchange for such content!

I would personally never mind watching any kind of ads for this great content!

I agree with the name change. You’ve helped me (as a hobby in addition to being a singer/musician kinda having to do everything myself no band or engineer). You’ve helped me bridge some 20-30 year gaps .. each video takes what I already know and helps me take it to another level. Without your clear and concise way of training I’d still be stuck. I have a moog tribute 37 .. I mostly got it to mimic Stevie Wonder styled bass. But honestly don’t use it as much as I should in sound design. I tweak every aspect of my sounds and the reward comes learning along the way. As far as you doing a membership.. I’d follow whatever you would choose. I don’t get ads because I use premium. Anyways absolutely love your content and the humility you express despite your legendary career. I reached out to Stu Zender in my 20s as an young artist and he too was so supportive and humble ... you all are my mentors from afar ... ya soul brutha H3

Best Moog Bass tutorial ever, thanks so much

Thankyou for your amazing channel! Your personal knowledge is priceless, I wouldn’t complain for ads...I think keeping the channel free will give the opportunity to reach more people.

Matt, you deserve at least a million subscribers

Matt PLEASE keep it FREE, this information and presentation is invaluable, especially coming from such a pro like you. Thanks and stay safe!

On the full takeover ads, if you hold down cmd and R (refresh) the page keeps refreshing and eventually the page gives up calling the ad servers but still decides to deliver the video. You might have to remember where you are in the video and you still get banner ads and still waste a few seconds of your life but at least nobody's advertising at you! It works a charm when clips start with an ad, and it's just really satisfying to defeat the algorithms.

I love your videos. thank you for posting them. i don't mind the ads!

With quality content most would not mind a few ads. Sharing the knowledge for the People ! Thanks Matt !

Don't mind the ads! I respect that it takes a great deal of time and work to produce such excellent & informative content.. it's your playing style that makes this Moog patch Awesome!!! 10/10 🎼🎹

I don't mind ads on your channel, neither i would hesitate parting with some gold for keeping this content being born, cannot thank you enough.

The ads don't bother me. I love this kind of educational stuff; it's really helping me think about my own patching/programming/playing. EDIT: I even love that the minimoog is acting up and not working properly--a nice "hey this is how it really is with vintage gear" moment.

The Minimoog has this midrange suppression in tandem with distortion that nobody seems to be able to fully recreate. I find my Behringer Model D tends to lose a lot of tonal character when driving the mixer, while the Poly D has lots of character but doesn't get as much drive. The Mini here just immediately gets into that sweetspot. What a sound!

Thanks for the master synth class. 😊

Happy to pay. The value of your experience and information is immeasurable. I pay for RU-vid to drop the ads. It’s worth it!

It's probably the only channel I am following where I would be ready to pay a certain amount, as already just watching Matt's content gets me in a good mood instantly (let alone trying the stuff afterwards). On the other hand: we are all used to ads when watching ANYTHING on RU-vid - I am not bothered by that. Not knowing anything about that business I have no idea what is helping Matt more, though - a bigger number of subscribers + ads, or a smaller number of Patreons...

I followed along programming my Sonic Core Minimax and couldn't believe how close that old software sounded! A very useful sound too.

I greatly appreciate your content and would gladly contribute to keep your amazing material coming. Respect and love from the Central Coast of California.

I can't get enough of these Moog videos...idk why...totally addicted... Please make a tutorial of the Jamiroquai - Deeper Underground Bass and how you played it...plz make that exception. :)))))) Keep up the great work...much appreciated

Moog Mood. Nothing like it to beat lockdown blues. Thank you.

I REALLY enjoy your contentand really hate ads interrupting the best parts, but I’ll keep watching as long as you’re here with sharing your talent and knowledge .

Thank you! Hope you don’t put your content behind a paywall- lots of stuff needing money at the moment, and I can’t stretch to everything. (tiny violin)

I'm happy to contribute to your efforts on Patreon, but please keep it affordable and reasonable for all the down and out musicians out there! Your videos are super useful and informative! Hopefully as the channel grows it will also make revenue through plays as well! Thanks for all the Funk so far, Miki

These videos are valuable. You should be compensated. I’m happy for you to do that however you need to. Thanks for teaching us so much!

I enjoy your content a lot. Thanks I hope you be able to keep it free. And I don't mind ads for it.

Thank you for sharing this amazing content! I really don’t mind the ads. I just tried this patch on a DSI Mopho and the result is almost the same.

50k already shows you are doing something right. More of the same please, and thanks for sharing with us all.

Hi Matt, my two cents worth Run the ads. It's a pleasure to listen to your clips It's such a small price to pay to be interrupted by an advertisement to watch something that you really want to see. Besides I just download your videos and throw them on my iPad, result no ads I watch them all the time You are one of the most professional, informative musicians doing this.... Oh sure, change the name because it's your thing not a Jamiroquai topic Take care Steve from New Zealand

Thnx for this Matt, and personaly I really don’t mind the ads, hope your channel remains open and public. All the best from Slovenia 🇸🇮😉

And you are a good teacher to me! Thank you!

Maybe keep it free and offer some quite pricey one-on-one online lessons? Whatever you do I have been enjoying your playing for far longer than your youtube-channel. You are a great musician AND a great educator. Humble and funky!

I'd definitely be up for more content - even if it were behind a modest paywall. Such a brilliant resource.

You're representing a whole era of great music. People need to know how it came to being for future generations to be inspired. I don't mind ads!

Thank you ! don't worry about Ads, you're giving out so much free information !

Was so looking forward to that after searching you last week's video for the instructions :) Happens. I tried to recreate that with the Sub37. Lowest octave 16' but the Sub1 oscillator and Feedback knob helped to get it punchy in the low end. Thanks for walking it through! Now I'll get back to last week's video to practice playing it. Keep on!

Please don’t keep your talent away from us, we are all happy to watch an add or two. Your subs will naturally grow and it’ll snowball to get ad revenue.

Livestreams seem to be an excellent form of interaction with an audience nowadays and they can also be quite lucrative.

Very nice. Thanks. I agree ads are fine by me. I tried to replicate your Moog patch on my Roland SE-02 and got pretty close, or close to something fun anyway. Cheers.

Hi Matt THANKS A LOT for sharing your knowledge, you brought precious content. Advertising is bearable, but i'll understand if you membership. I allow myself to share a tip for NI's Monark users in order to have that legato playing: - do exactly what Matt says, - then click on the B section just above the "Monark" brand on the upper left of the vst's skin (loaded in reaktor). - The back of the vst appears. - then click "never" on enveloppe retrig and "last" on priority in Keyboard Legato section. - And Boom you have that nice legato sound. - Enjoy !!! Thanks again Matt

I noticed in the last video you didn't show how to program it, so I was attempting to recreate it (on my Arturia Matrixbrute, by running it just through the 24db moog style ladder filter) and got pretty close, but couldn't figure out what was different tonally... I used sawtooth, and once I switched over to pulse and went through the pulse waves got it. All these years I've mainly used sawtooth on bass sounds and tending to only use pulse when doing PWM style sounds, but now I see I've been missing out. Thank you! One nice thing to do on the Matrixbrute (or in VST emulations of the minimoog) is to apply velocity to filter envelope, so you can expressively control how much that attack punch comes in with your finger.

Hooray! I been excited for this. I’ve admired your musicianship in your videos so I couldn’t help but anticipate getting your take on programming the settings on a fitting patch!

Thanks for the patch. I always appreciate a good bass when playing blues bass lines. The last video was great as well.

Thanks so much, just tried it on my modular, using different filters is quite exciting 😎👍

I feel you Matt! I'm torn bc I have zero complaints about what you are already doing, but I would definitely be willing to pay for longer, more in depth content i.e. breaking down songs, theory, your approach to scales/soloing, you name it! Either way, thanks for everything, this channel has been a pandemic highlight! Keep on groovin

I think you have some of the best stuff on youtube - I would expect that a patreon would do well (I'm personally a fan of the free content for ads). Don't worry about changing your channel's name! I like the casual approach, but that's just me. In case you read this, you've been really inspiring - thank you for sharing all that you do.

Ah, the charm of learning to set a patch instead of downloading it :). Thank you so much, this came at just the right time for me, incorporating the Behringer Model D in my workflow. I must say, it does the job extremely well, and the OSC1 works reliably on it... so I immediately started experimenting with using OSC3 to give it some wobble. Ooooh yeaaahhhh..

My sister and I grew up on your band. I'm now getting into music and Jamiroquai is still a huge influence. I'm so stoked to find you on RU-vid!!

Thank you so much for your time and for sharing your brilliants! You're an elegant natural teacher. I would love to show my support and be inspired to buy a monthly sample pack and a (twitch) keyboard or bass and chord lessons. Thanks again!

Fantastic channel, fantastic content, awesome player with magical keyboard skills.

Those of us who know Jamiroquai, but not the names of the Band members, probably found this channel just because of its name. I know I did^^ So I would keep it. Paywall, membership... I don't know a single youtuber who has less money than I do. I was on youtube when it was about fun and sharing and self expression and not about income. I miss those times. Now we can never be sure how much honesty is left. From making content just to make content, to making longer videos to squeeze in more ads, it has all gone down the pipe on yt. Hobbies became business models. Daily uploads to stay relevant instead of monthly quality have become the norm. You make quality content, I don't think you could do it if you had to follow such a tight schedule. Advice for all new youtubers: If you can't or don't want to afford a camera and the time (5 minutes on video will usually take 1 hour in editing^^), don't do it. Just don't tell people you can't do it unless there's more money coming your way. Make it a hobby, not your main job. I quit making videos and my life got better lol

I know it’s been three years ago,but this is brilliant ,really helpful.

Honestly, thanks for sharing your knowledge here with us! Please keep the channel free, it would be such a shame if part of your lessons disappear behind a paywall. Most of us are in the same boat right now anyways! Warm regards from Berlin Matt!

Advs is OK, just thank you for keeping it free! I've just found your channel today and I'm in love with it!!!

Awesome, thanks so much

Great video Matt. I would say ad supported works well during strange times.

Congrats on the 50k subscriptions! I think you should offer in depth tutorials on sound design and playing ! I’d buy ! This is one of the best mini moog sound design tutorials on the internet ! Just don’t forget to keep the regular content coming , it’s great to watch

Amazing chanel to know more about moog bass and bass synths world. I am really really glad to find it 🙏🏾

Aha!... The missing piece. Too awesome💯‼️... something about the single osc I really like. 😆❤️

Hi Matt, first thanks a lot for the content you are sharing! I do love all the videos you post, I've learned a lot form them! Second, I don't mind to see and ad from time to time (I can live with it) and due to the HIGH quality of the content you share, it's really a small price to pay from our (viewers) end. Now, from my perspective it will be totally fine if you want to charge some fee to see your content, and I'll be more than happy to pay for it, not to avoid ads on You Tube, I'll do it because I admire you and respect your work. Either way (free or charged) please PLEASE videos like this one coming! Thanks a lot!

Matt this is amazing. Really one of the best synth lessons ever. Love this bro thank you.

It’s a tough one. Your content is invaluable and artists should be valued. Your call really. In the other hand, I’m sure I’m not the only one learning a lot from your example.

Just want to say thanks for sharing Matt.

Your choice is the best choice. (: As for the name change, I think the Jamiroquai name brings a crowd that wouldn't have necessarily clicked other wise ? Thank you for sharing some of your knowledge ! It's such a privilege to live in this day and age !

Funky Brother Matt!! THANK YOU so much for giving us such AMAZING sounds and music. I really appreciate all you do to make the world a much better place musically speaking. I don’t own a Minimoog, but I do own a Behringer Poly D. I can’t wait to recreate your FUNKAY bass patch on the Poly D. I also LOVE your original Minimoog video and can’t wait to try and recreate some of those incredible lead patches you play in that video. As far as the name change, you do you bruh! Either way it’s all good. And I for one are cool with the ads. I mean, you are BLESSING us with some serious sonic GOLD!!🎹🎹🎹⚡️⚡️⚡️So how can I complain about the ads? Thanks again for everything my man. Please continue to stay safe. Many blessings to you and your fam.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Very nice, Matt..thank you. The ads aren't too much of an issue.

I would be interested in joining a channel membership because your expertise, wisdom and skills are worth paying for.

Great Video Matt. Just tried this patch on my Behringer Model D and it did a super job of nailing the sound. I've also got a Dave Smith Pro2 and although it produces some sublime sounds it just cannot do the fat Moog bass sounds without a lot of post-equalisation and even then doesn't quite get there with its DCOs. So if I want a good thick bass sound I go straight to the Boog. I just wish my fingers were as agile as yours! As for your videos and streams please keep them free and accessible to all, the content of your videos are so interesting I can suffer the ads.

Excellent tutorial Matt. Yes I think a separate channel would a great idea .

Ads are fine, re-name makes sense too, might consider a member program(depending on the cost/benefits) if you decide on that direction, but it would suck if it meant less "freebies" such as this vid. Either way, thanks for the content, & congrats on 50k!

Thanks for this follow-up video, Matt!! Regarding the pay channel, I really appreciate the free videos, but would be great with more in-depth vids or similar. So, I would be one vote for that. One other suggestion is if you provide a link to a virtual "tip jar", so people could contribute amounts that is comfortable for them. Thanks again!!

Ad's are fine Matt, Thanks for the great content

Love your videos, thanks, I think you must do like a series of videos breaking down some iconic Jamiroquai songs, by instruments, what was used, how to play, that kind of thing, I'm sure people would love this, cause think about it, if not you - who ?? exactly :)

Personally i really hope you dont stick your content behind a paywall. I wouldnt have the money spare to become a member and id miss out on your awesome content, but im very happy to watch a few ads. Thankyou for sharing your content on youtube!

Please keep with the current format Matt...ads are OK and allows for wider audience reach. Cheers for the fat Moog bass tips ✌

I just watched that video last night and I was like wait what the hell, Matt just says if you have a minimoog you can sound like this, then starts jamming! 😅

Don’t worry about the ads, it’s ok to wait for you great content!!! And yes, change the name if you want it🙂 you will still being one of the best keyboard/synth players of our time😎

This is exactly what we like, the details! Cheers for this Matt :) P.s I also don't mind the Ad's too much, they are frustrating at times but bearable. All the best :)

Key space sounds great!

when you use the single oscillator pulse at 9:02 you're getting that Michael Jackson Don't Stop bass sound that I love. Kinda thin, but kinda punchy too.

I don't mind enduring the ads for the content you make Matt, which is excellent. Never really liked the membership model, think it will deter many folk. Difficult times fro many at the moment Keep smiling

This video and the previous one show clearly that to make a synth sound good, the way you play it is at least as important as the way you program it!

Hello Matt hope you and your family are keeping well. I must say you new album is sublime. Will you be touring when the time is right. Fantastic podcast great info and sounds. Steven

Great stuff. Two thumbs up!

Completely fine with adds, you got to generate revenue mate! Please keep the content free, it's very inspiring, love your take on it 🙌🤘

Man, watching the other video I was like, where's the patch?... Love this! Got as close as I can with my Moog Grandmother and I'm off to funk around!

Funkiest keyboards on RU-vid. Great stuff.

Would definitely be interested in paid content about instruments, synth patches, studio gear and playing tutorials

Such a nice patch! I'm keen to go and give this a try. Interesting comment about the mix levels pre filter. Don't think I've really pushed them up high at all, so keen to have a crack and see how it behaves. I guess I never really thought how it would make a difference. Thanks Matt!

Hey Matt, amazing videos. I'm just wondering if you can you get a pretty similar sound out of the Voyager, or is the Model D more wild?

Excellent! - now I am despertaly hoping that you might consider to explain some moog patches you used in the Vintage Vibe 64 Deluxe Electric Piano video, espeically the moon safari style lead!

The jamiroquai bit was how I discovered this channel, not so sure if you should change that unless you're facing legal issues/uncomfortable conversations with the band

Hey Matt, thanks a million for this video. Completely priceless. Another topic that I'm interested in your opinion on is the original Minimoog versus the Voyager. I see you have both and would love just to hear you chat about when you go to the original versus the Voyager and perhaps your thoughts on the character of each and how you've used them in your recordings over the years

Thanks for sharing! Great video!
