+mylarmelodies haha yeah, maybe a little EP in that one! :)

Thanks Greg, glad I can help you along with gear you already have.

+Tom Walker really? Thanks! Possibly swayed by the subject material? But either way glad you're into it.

+ross anderton Hey Ross, it's the gift that keeps on giving. Always really fun and it's got loads of options for processing and controlling sound. A bit like the Octocontroller from Abstract Data. Both of those in my set up not only work great together but seem to ignite the system or at least my own ideas.

+jericho2x2 nice one! Appreciate that.

Hey Lux, great stuff thank you.

HI Jonathan cheers for the comment. Great to hear!

+morphiclab303 cheers mate!

+BlueWolfSe7en yeah it's certainly something special. I still don't have a PEG ... someday. They've got the dual delay coming too :)

glad I could help. Let me know if you have any questions.

+Mark Steiner thanks Mark, appreciate that! :)

i dont mean to be so offtopic but does anybody know of a way to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost the password. I love any tricks you can give me

@Jensen Travis instablaster :)

@Santino Javier thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

@Santino Javier it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thanks so much, you saved my account!

haha! Go sub! It can certainly kick out a wide range of frequencies.

+Will Fehlhaber Music I've certainly teased this one coming for a little while.

yeah multiband envelope followers is a smart thing.

Nice one!

+allears62 yeah I wanted dark and nasty instead of sweet melodic content. Certainly does both really well.

+The Police I keep thinking about using a guitar for a playlist of videos but just not enough time to implement those ideas at the minute.

came back again...this REALLY is an excellent vid. thanks much again. all-encompassing tutorial at a super efficient pace. you crammed a LOT of general overview, applications and audible examples in here for 23 minutes! cheers! ...hope to see one for the 4ms sampler : ).

+Oliver Ibasta cheers!

+The Phantom Wave nice one!

not a bad thing to leaning towards :)

+albert mazanti Hey Albert, it was an E350 oscillator into a Metasonix VCA (not sure which one, single channel VCA not made anymore I think) and an ErbeVerb I believe.

Ah, perfect! Thanks a lot!

+death2ie great, thanks!

+Tomas Bodin :) Thanks.

+Tutatis thank you! Appreciate that. They are from UTOPb - www.utopb.com/category/led-patch-cables/

What happened to UTOPb and is there another source for the led patch cables that you know of?

+KentuckyFitz haha well I had to spin around from the previous value to show it so wasn't 100% everyone would pick up on it. It's usually the sort of thing people message me to ask about.

+mqtthiqs Synthesis Technology E350 into a Metasonix R51. Pretty lethal combo I'm finding. Reverb was a Make Noise Erbe Verb

really nice combo, i recognized the erbe : )

+lemayway :D

haha perfect! I'd gladly take the offer.

Hi Greg, cheers glad you're liking the videos. You can push into some mild clipping and put enough level out to clip other modules if you want to but it doesn't have distortion built in as feature.

+Greg Gibbons take it one is on the cards then?

+DivKidMusic Yep has been on the cards since I saw it first time. Appeals to me probably more than anything else in euro at the moment.

bit of a different sound but happy for any James Blake to come through anything.

+justin Davros check out matttechmodular.co.uk he was the first to get any stock in the UK although I imagine all have sold out now. He'll be getting a second order in though and is responsive to emails. Just a heads up I am friends with Matt so bias in terms of pointing you to him but you'll get great service from him. Beyond that check Post Modular, London Modular and Rubadub.

+revel8or I'm working with every manufacturer you see in the videos now. Not had chance or time to just demo something because I want to lately. All demos are focussed on developing relationships and building hopefully some sort of future career out of this stuff.

+DivKidMusic Namaste! You make great videos, and I wish you well in whatever the universe brings to you. I've seen your posts on MW, and you certainly seem to know your stuff, so, imho, you are on your way!

+revel8or thanks!

give me a timing for that part of the video and I'll listen and tell you. Might be a discontinued Metasonix R-51.

@@DivKid 17m30s. I wouldn't be suprised if it is the Metasonix, I've just been looking at them

@@DivKid So do you think it is the R-51 at 17 mins 30? As I say, it sounds so good and I'm currently looking at options for adding some valve goodness to my rig

Would fit right into a trailer for an action movie where every time the sound flares up, they show a quick shot of something disastrous happening

+Ian Hoffman haha yeah it's be perfect for it!

+Dylan Stephenson haha! Thanks

+Ian Hoffman cheers!

+itege it was teased as a possible alternative firmware.

yeah the changing tones is almost like a little percussion ensemble.

+Francois Benner cheers! The cables are here - www.utopb.com/category/led-patch-cables/

Thx :)

+Josh Batterley oh yeah totally! And it can have totally different firmware turning into some sort of harmonic oscillator or something (if someone writes software / firmware for it to do that).

Oh wow, that sounds awesome. Modules seem to be getting better and better.

+Josh Batterley there's lots and lots happening in the scene now that's for certain.

nice one

Hi, I haven't noticed it at all to be honest. But the bits of production I've been using it in have been higher pad like textures and FX which end up with the standard low cut treatment in my projects. Has anyone else mentioned this?

I hear it throughout the Resonance range - no input CVs, just push the faders up, and listen to the output. I also heard it on one of Dan's YT demos. I will have to get around to emailing him and asking. I really would like to be able to dial it out, or at least change the frequency. Thanks.

thank you for the information, once I get out of "case-magedden" moving things around I'm going to get onto it. Be well worth emailing 4ms about.

@1VperOctave I noticed it as well in this video and was wondering about it. Could you find an answer or solution? I really like the module and want to get it. Thank you.

quite possibly, but I don't have time at the minute. And on that note ... I haven't had chance to check it out. Have you? I've heard good things from those that have.

don't have that module so....I readed about it, and seriously considering to build one

are they available to make as DIY?

it's open source, so yes, but not available as a kit ( as far as I know) also not an easy project

ah ok I see. Well good luck with it all if you go ahead.

Yeah it's an amazing platform for a range of things. 4ms are really onto something special with the current range. Not to say their clock devices aren't great (they've been in my system pretty much since starting) but the DLD and SMR are awesome. New sampler and multi tap delay look great too.

yeah very different, one is a granular based device the other is a resonator. SMR as a resonator is filter/EQ based that is different to say a karplus strong delay network that can act like/as a resonator for string like sounds.

its output is always just the output. There's no dry/wet blend or mix on board.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think what you describe might be achieved by turning 'resonator' up to the max.

@@DivKid Would I be right in saying that if I want a fully dry signal I could have all the frequency bands up full with the resonance at zero, and if I wanted a fully wet signal I would turn the resonance up to 100%? And would the volume level be the same with res at 0 or 100%? I'm thinking about using this through an auxiliary channel of my mixer, so that I could choose a pitched resonance to add to my Moog DFAM during a live performance...but I would have other effects through the same aux on the mixer, so I wouldn't want the SMR on all the time. Do you think it would work for this?

+Ross Kingston Have you seen the recent Rings videos? Pair those two together and you're in for some fun.

cheers Kim.

To be honest I can't remember what I did in the video. Did I just clock the rotation sand not CV it? ... Anyway yes I'd agree morphing and moving those bands is fantastic.

At 10 minute mark albeit briefly

you're always going to get that I think.

+Dan G HI Dan, sorry if I've missed your question it's a WMD PDO. Awesome thing! :)

+Dan G I did think when I said "phase distortion oscillator" most people would pick up the PDO from that. I'll have a video on that coming on a different platform later in the year.

:) I think 4ms will like that.

+Sean Hornibrook You can run the output into a wave folder ... totally awesome! I'd recommend trying that.

+Sean Hornibrook As soon as an input is present (whatever it is) the noise goes away. So it's purely "striking / pinging" the resonant filters to excite those to ring.

+DivKidMusic Thanks so much! Amazing module they have put together here...

It came early. If you even think you want one a little bit, you should go buy it. It is just extraordinary.

haha bad or your wallet then? :)

DivKidVideo my wallet and I no longer speak to eachother, I think he hates me

haha

Is there nothing similar in the libraries?

Yes! I found it, thanks again!

+tom kelly it's a Metasonix VCA

Cool. Have you used the Trogotronic m277, and if so, how do they compare? Glad this 4ms SMR demo has some dirt in it. Thanks.

+Kevin P haha yep! Always.

Much like the o_c? How? Or was that the question? The Ornament and Crime doesn't process audio, or create audio so it's not a similar device. If that didn't answer let me know and I'll try to go through it with you. Cheers.

Hi Jeff, nice feedback. I'd struggle to say what the modules are made for though with a lot of them having so many options for how to use them. I'm trying to make sure I cut in patches and short edits from the video into the introductions so people can hear and see patches coming in the video to set some context. I don't know what you mean by "filter during a sequence" but it's 6 bandpass filters that can change frequencies within scale by variable CV or by changing through patterns with a clock/gate signal.

...Yes,i understand some modules does so many things...ok!...i didnt think about that you're right Kid! Thks!

no worries :)

Hi Joshua, those clicks are just due to the morph control set to its lowest setting. Instantly shifting from one frequency to another will cause clicks. It's not VCAs or click-less zero detection issues. But you can just turn up a knob slightly and rectify this on the module. I don't find modular gear to be any more clicky or poppy than other studio gear and when it can be is usually down to functions and controls presenting a wider control range than other things which can be exploited or reigned in by the user.

haha I'll try my best! I'm aware that A) I talk fast and B) I often talk "crap". Not crap content but my speech and diction is poor. I do try to keep it in mind. Ask me any questions at anytime on any site though and I'll do my best to answer things in detail. Especially if it's been hard to understand me somewhere.

DivKidVideo Ha! The auto generated closed captions are worth a try on any video.

Odd statement when these are technical demonstrations of functions and applications. What would you like me to say instead? Not describe how these things work and the terms used for them? Feel free to point out specific words and time stamps in the video you have issue with and we can discuss.

@@DivKid I get your point but very much get MeTokyo's too. Most vids of this sort do use all the technical terms and have a "look it up" approach. Imo a "which is" follow up could be nice here and there, especially on important parts... but you are covering so much so I get the efficiency mentality. That said, my music is far more experimentally driven than I ideally prefer due to this. People like me are interested in making music and sounds, not user manuals and fancy techy glossaries. For the average person (which I know more than the average but less than expected for a vid like this) but for the average person, this may as well be in an entirely different language. "You take the criogenic frogilizer metrolosis and run it to the megoclamickal dehydralizer and click in a defrag multi-gravitronical duvalizer and you then get a nice cryptolated fungular trianguloid monopad dualizer sequence" when they could just say "when you turn these two knobs it adds that ring tail you hear" (just as a hypothetical / satirical example.) These terms often over complicate rather than simplify and imo things like this should accomodate less versed people to some degree.
