Rainmaker and Chill
Рет қаралды 63,024
Күн бұрынThe Intellijel Rainmaker is a 16 step spectral rhythm delay and comb resonator. That's a fancy way of saying "crazy echo". It's deep and wonderful, and I want to show it to you, so we'll use Morphagene to send it some samples and turn small sounds into swirling rhythmic wonderlands.

Nice work Jeremy! You created some really lovely tones and textures out of Rainmaker and give a good sense of how mesmerizing it can be to explore all the parameters to completely transform an input signal. The Piles label on your unit was changed to Stacks pretty early on, so that's why the menu doesn't match the label on your panel. You must have got a really early unit!

despite other videos making it sound awesome, this is the first video to properly sell me on rainmaker by showing me not only what it does but also how it does. I always imagined it being way more menu dive-y than this. one improvement i can think of if intellijel decide to do a revision is to add more trigger inputs. being able to randomise different things with different signals, or even just use the different triggers in different ways would kill for me at least, especially if you could set trigger A to randomise what triggers B and C do.

@mikesmusicgear9204 3 жыл бұрын
Yes Excellent sound design tool. An entire modular device in and of itself. It has taken dozens of hours returning to it over months to really understand it. But it's wonderful. Consider adding another delay and or reverb pedal after , subtle , for wonderful Ambient soundscapes ( I adapted the crazy notion of stacking delays from Ambient Guitar guy Chords of Orion ) . I use an Eventide or Specular Tempus ....as I'm not that deep into modular. Try taming the preset modulations or slowing the ping pong X-fades ...... THEN add simple tape delay or dig delay pedal later in fx chain.. 👍🏽😄❗️ My Rainmaker is in a 72hp Intellijel case with an old Maths for envelopes and a generic LFO. I use periodically w real acoustic instruments or simple synth motifs. True Modular heads have so much other gear that they probably don't dedicate the time to dig into this piece of kit.

Hey - been watching your stuff for quite some time, and I'm really enjoying your modular videos. I'm about to take the plunge into eurorack and the rainmaker is one of the reasons why. Only problem is - I can't for the life of me find any available online to purchase. Is there a similar module you can recommend? Or is this really a one-of-a-kind type deal?

Unfortunately the modular maker world has been hit incrediblly hard by the manufacturing slowdown that's affecting all industries right now. We have to wait for the world to get back to equilibrium. Find a shop you like and ask for an email update on when they'll get more. Look for them used, too.

This seems to be the most complete tap delay up to date. The only thing I am missing right now are some send and return jacks for the feedback path. Sometimes my feelings just cries out: This is way too much taps for every mix. But of course you can reduce the number. Man I really hope they will release a version 2 with send & return. Thanks for a great video. Do you know any other eurorack tap delays besides this one and Strymon Magneto, which includes send & return, but seems to be working in mono in some situations?
