comment to pfp ratio on point

Only thing missing is white lab coats.

Lmfao

It bugs me when nearly every guy posting a modular synth or tape loop vid calls it experimental or an experiment. Especially synths like the Lyra or Ciat Lonbarde, making sounds they were designed to make is an experiment I guess

lololol

Perfect summary of this total crap!

Savage but true. Perfect Circuit had an insufferable series of this $hit for a while that I thoroughly enjoyed sharing with modular buddies.

yeah i'm so bored of random bleeps being associated with modular synths

:-D

If you like bass music check out Baseck, he can squeeze a whole performance from a handful of modules. Hell, even the stuff I make is more musical than this and I am basically tone deaf.

In fact, the OB-4 has a line-in, and you can spot a dangling audio cable from the PO400 to the OB-4.

@@Motone apologies - it has no line out. So any magic you conjur up whilst jamming is lost - unless you mic up your speakers at an extra cost.

@@zuluwarhead So true... I assume it's because of the internal radio, because ... you know: Home taping is killing music! :)

@@Motoneyup ! Shame really - it’d be maybe worth saving up for if it had a way of recording

Yes. I like how the drummer was trying to be in the same groove. It was like they were racing or trying to catch each other out.

lolol

They restocked them a few weeks ago

What egg do you mean? :)

@@LiveReview the one all over the face of anyone foolish enough to watch this entire failed attempt at levity?

@@strangersun7721 part 2 will be better

Honestly I’d take this over the generic bullshit that is my areas local music scene. It’s rare to see a synth let alone a modular anywhere

@@monotronfan1 Don't get me wrong. I would also prefer to listen to an ape randomly tweaking a synth over most "music". I like synths to sound broken and have randomness I just didn't think this particular example sounded video worthy. Then on reflection I realised this device is probably meant to introduce proper synthesis to aspirational hipsters so total randomness is probably the best way to demonstrate the sonic palette to the noob.

@@leatapmicha9917 yeah I think the message is just “have fun”, or this is a means to unconventionally express oneself which falls inline with TE’s philosophy and modular in general

There's a slew of 50+ hipsters who are depending on TE's gear to prevent them from making music.

I don't hate them but I think of them more as a fashion-conscious gateway thing. I have a few of their devices. OP-1 is my favourite. But they all have too many restrictions on them. EG I bought four POs before I decided I couldn't buy another sequencer without adjustable pattern length.

@@leatapmicha9917 an instrument can be intuitive or comprehensive. There are different degrees, and this depends on the intended consumer but there will need to be an arbitrary line drawn by the engineers that leans to one side. I generally, do find myself frustrated with a limitation on gear but force myself to reflect on the purpose of it and the overall strengths of the instrument. Doing this many times, I usually find myself siding with the instrument creator and embracing their vision. For example my favorite synthesizer is the Nord Lead A1, a synth with an innovative streamlined architecture that put off many people. Ive embraced what it is, and understand why the limitations were implicated and while initially disgruntled I think it’s the perfect performance synth. And pretty much any instrument will sound great in good hands

@@monotronfan1 Yeah totally. Limitations are great. Just things like no pattern length on a sequencer like oversight. I haven't use any non TE sequencer that forced me to a 16 step sequence. Like the OP-1 is one of my favourite things but it has a kind of single project paradigm going on. So I love it completely but I have a mess of project backups that I must restore if I want to work on them. I understand they want to encourage me to mix down a finished product and move on. I guess it's not quite right for me.

@@leatapmicha9917 you should look into the op-z, it blows the op-1 out of the water imo. You can find them used for like $350, and once you get over the somewhat steep learning curve, it’s magical. Just make sure you address the bowing by adding extra rubber feet or some pad to the bottom. That’s the one issue I’ve got with the op-z, the casing but it is easily addressable and kept the cost substantially down

@@monotronfan1 I had an OP-Z. Got it very close to launch. I was excited waiting for years. Didn't gel with the sound or the headless interface. :(

lololol

idd, not a single succulent or rug in the video. So useless, cold sounds

it's a joke...

If there’s one constant in life, it’s people hating on TE

really?

The way it should be played and performed! :)

For real? Lmao

@@stephanrewind ba dum tss 😁

hint: pretty certain the term isn't being used seriously

i think they based their choice of words in the ability of their followers to understand humor. which sadly not everyone here has. my scientific study on the percentage of people that don't have that concluded that approximately 25 percent of listeners dont have a sense of humor. considering the fourth comment on this video was yours.

@@matthausholzl2645 this is humor?

It’s a joke mate

@@HitoriGnocchi yes, my type of humor. sorry if i did not hit yours.

@@stephanrewind too bad for you mate.
