We go through step-by-step creating a basic kick and snare drum machine sequence and add a bassline on top.
00:00 Intro Jam
00:42 Creating a kick
03:40 Using the Electronic Switch for a snare pattern
05:31 Signal Path for the bass line
07:00 Using the Ring Mod as a VCA
09:53 Using the Lag processor as a Lo Pass Filter
11:06 Build a more complex bass rhythm Oscillators as LFOs and Voltage Processor 1
13:50 Pulse Width Mod from Osc 3
15:35 Jam Session
Note: Just found this video I made years ago! My camera was terrible back then. This is on my DIY TTSH ARP 2600 - before the release of the clones from Korg and Behringer. Now they're out it seems useful to put this video up...

Thanks for making this killer tutorial. I've got a TTSH and have watched quite a few vid's trying to wrap my head around the 2600. This tutorial helped me immensely.

Very powerful trick. I had never thought of using the electronic switch as a gate-controlled VCA, like you do here. Brilliant idea !

@NoizeToy2 11 ай бұрын

Thanks! Yeah it’s a great tool for switching audio sources on/off, and jumping between different modulation sources/destinations. Feel like I’ve not even scratched the surface of possibilities 😂

@@NoizeToy2 One other handy way I have seen the switch used is as a unipolar square LFO. Like, sending some fixed Cv on one side and keeping the other side to zero. It opens the possibility of modulating the frequency of a VCO with it, in a way that becomes very easy to tune: you can easily make a VCO play two fixed notes alternatively, which would otherwise be very difficult to tune properly using just the “normal” square bipolar LFO. Your trick here reminded me of that other one. The 2600 does feel like a whole uncharted territory to explore, indeed. And to think it was one of the very first synth to be designed ever ! I have a huge admiration for the ARP team who created it.

Nice video! Smooth explanations and good sounds! One little thing about the 2600 having no extra lfo for PWM duties.. You can run the preamp back into itself with a stackable or the mult and get a reasonably slow lfo that should work for PWM or vibrato or other things.

Ahh nice - never thought of preamp feedback as a mod source 👍

Just tried this - it works really well! The feedback is a square wave so you need to run it through the slew to get a sine out of it. The higher the range: the slower the LFO. Thanks for the tip 🙂
