It really is the King of Eurorack Voices.

Plaits was my first module. I ended up finding a second one for dirt cheap and loved both of them dearly. This update felt like Christmas coming early for me.

I'm not big on modular stuff and with content of yours like these I'm always really astonished by their capabilities it's amazing! I'd like to get really into them one day. That wave editor website seems so fun to just mess around with haha! (The protogen joke caught me off guard lmao)

It's "platts" not "plates" (or "plahts"), you don't "plate" your hair, you "platt" it. At the very least in New Zealand this is a word we actually use so we don't have to guess how to freakin' say it! :) Also if it helps Émilie herself pronounces it "platts". Ranting out of the way, great video, great demo of the new sounds and the editor! I now have that strong, new module desire but I have the module already! I just have to update the firmware! 🎉 This hasn't stopped me entering the competition for a second one though! 😂

Emilie is a legend!! I also wonder if this means the Freak line will also get similar updates 🤔

Appreciated the protogen joke - love those funky little robot critters.

Was just going to look into the firmware update, thanks for being on top of this!

Never had Plaits but had to get one from Patchwerks after the update and love it! Much Love to Jeremy, Emilie and Patchwerks!

Like several others, I also read about the update and watched a video or two. It seemed cool but I wasn't inspired to go through the update process at the time and honestly forgot about it. Thank goodness I found this video! What a great demonstration of how awesome this update actually is. To the laptop!

Thank you Mr. Recording ! I would not have known there was a Plaits update if not for this video 🙏🙏🙏

I installed the firmware update already, love it. Especially the second new mode (2 Phase distortion and modulation).

I’ve watched this video like 8 times, and I get something new out of it each time. Fantastic demo and music.

Great demos, you keep things simple and you really showcase the musical quality of the module with cool tracks.

Great video thanks! Firmware tip: if you're getting the blinking red lights, turn your sound source device up!

Weirdly enough, I wasn’t particularly fussed when I read about the new firmware bar the string machine mode. Oh, how wrong I was!!! Can see so many uses for the new modes in the music I make. So glad I grabbed a second one a couple of months ago now. Thanks for opening my eyes, and extra bonus points for cute dog content!!

absolutely was not expecting to hear 'protogen' in the wild

Best Demo of the new update. Thx.

Loved your jams in this video! What a versatile module

Sad that MI is sailing off into the sunset, happy it went out on a high note.

Dang, I did not started this video in order to convince myself to purchase an unit, but HERE IT GOES! Nice showcase. Thanks.

the jam at 20:36 is so sick. Another kick-ass demo Jeremy!

I knew from the title that this was going to slap. Did not disappoint. Hi Riker!

plait /plāt,plat/ noun a single length of hair or other flexible material made up of three or more interlaced strands; a braid. verb form (hair or other material) into a plait or plaits. "her hair had been plaited and coiled at the back of her head" - plaits, hats, bats

Thank your for that video. Best one so out there about the new update!

Awesome! your modular videos make me want to sell my gear and dive deep into modular world, I have few modules already but not yet on the other side, scary world out there...

Always love your videos, thank you for putting out quality content! You have a great way of teaching and your music actually sounds good unlike so many music KZfaqrs especially modular. Thank you!

I'm a fan of Plaits, and you did a very, very nice and useful demo, thanks to share, saludos desde Buenos Aires.

Dude that jam at the end is bonkers!

Listening again; the chiptune arpeggio is next level. Frission level 10.

A Plaits clone was my first module and is still an integral part of my system. With the new firmware, even 2 wouldn't be enough! I've already gotten a lot of use out of the new firmware, especially the arpeggiator. Huge fan of your channel and your work!

love the negative fm thingy thats giving u a envelope on pitchenvelope

Plaits pronounced ‘platts’. It’s not complicated… I cheated a bit- I have an MI Plaits, but I bought an ALA Knit this week and have updated them both. I can now run both slightly detuned, and- wow! You forgot to mention the ‘fixed tuning’ function. Hold the right button, turn the harmonics knob fully cw, and the lights flash alternately. The frequency knob then plays octaves of C- which if you’ve not got a tuner in the rack (I don’t) is way cool.

What a great demo, and wow Wave Terrain looks/sounds awesome!

"Plaits" is the British way of saying, "braids." And it's pronounced "plats" (like "flats"), because the Brits talk funny. 😉

Expert Sleepers released a firmware update for the Disting EX today that gives you 4 braids at once.

this video has a lot of cool tracks showing off the different functions instead of just random noise like 99% of these types of vids go. got my sub

The real genius here is those riffs. What are you using to sequence Plaits?

It’s “plats” the same as plaid is pronounced “plad”. Plus there’s a picture on the module of interlocked (plaited) lines. Also it’s updated braids so the hair / rope naming convention would make sense.

Mutable rules. so much love

As i burp loudly at the screen, the only thing that could make this more clear is if you said uhhh and ah less. Thanks Jeremy!

1 of 3 that got the joke! 😁

Excellent video about a beautiful and generous module/instrument. Thanks for the tips for users like me! MATHS and Plaits are equal GOATs IMO.

I got the protogen reference. Love that band

THAT FINAL ARP JAM

please record a full video of how you play with a smooth start with the continuation of the dance beat. in other words, please record a short or long music video.

Whuuuuuuaaaaaaaaaatttttt!!!!!????😮😱🫣🥳🔥✨🙏 Can i use Plaits standalone with a midi Controller or do i need other components? I need one, NOW, the sounds, the frequencies, the harmonics, wow!❤ Thank you so much for this demo man! From a fellow brother in buttons

Drop at 21:20 and for a bit after gave me the same awesome vibes as some of Fuck Button's long crescendos into overwhelming sounds

Thank you Jeremy for the video, thank you Émilie for the glorious modules, thank you Riker for being a good boi

the plait thickens

some delicious Fischerspooner vibes flying around in this auto-arp jam; top stuff.

Already have one, have to grab another now

MI got me into synths… it started with a DIY build Shruthi, then I built most of the hardware range and the rest is a room full of gear history. Never got into Eurorack but it’s only a matter of time, money and divorce. As others have said, brother Jeremy: “platts”, not “plates”. Those are part of a reverb and things you eat off. 😂

Hahaha, I did the same thing and grabbed another 2 😂 Great video, super informative and helpful. What are you using for drums/percussion in this video?

Holy shit the song at the end. I have an edges but I'm wondering if there's a point to keeping it now I know plaits can do this.

Do not play this on your phone at full volume I took out my screen at around the 5 minute mark 😮otherwise cool video very informative 👍

I had no idea Mutable Instruments was shutting down. End of an era :(

I get your Protogen joke, I love you

1) This is awesome. The firmware via audio file thing alone fascinates the hell out of me, let alone all the features available on one unit. 2) Completely unrelated, but my Blue desk mounted boom bit the dust recently. The tightening knobs are pressure fit plastic, and it didn't like holding up my SM7B at the angle I wanted it at for streaming. How do you like that Gator arm?

Jeremy, are those sounds running through any FX after Plaits? It sounds amazing! I don't do much modular but I have a Plaits clone somewhere around here, I'm going to have to get it hooked up! Thanks for the awesome video.

From their website 😢 The production of all modules has halted and Mutable Instruments will permanently shut down in December 2022. You can still contact us for support and repairs until June 2023.

Ém is a god. i actually adore her. oh my god

Now that you have discovered the internet can help you learn how to pronounce words ask it about “timbre.” 🤠 Oh, you did! Thanks for the great synth content, and Merry Christmas!

great videos, thanks

Awesome overview!

Nice, inspiring demos!

oh man. the DX7 stuff was cool.

Whoa, that auto arp 🤌

Great guide.. thank you very much!

Hope @VCV Rack will port this firmware over to update Macro Osc II ?!? Bangers as always RMR cheers !

is the jam starting at 20:17 available as a separate track somewhere? i would buy! what other gear did you use for this, apart from plaits?

I was about to sell mine…till I saw this.

Gotta love Émilie right?

Nice! Will the new firmware work with a Plaits clone module?

The ARP is my jam. What happened to the CV range on models input adding an an entire bank of models?

appreciate the FOTC 🤣 reference

What are you using for drums on that first subtractive jam? They sound great.

Holy shit, your work blows my mind, thank you!

I weirdly still prefer Braids, the interface clicks with me more IMO.

7:26 this is some Hotline Miami shit right here and I wanna get this so bad.

sounds dope !

5:23 - It's Batman !

Question about the editor: If I want to replace just a FEW sounds of a bank, does it just keep the stock ones that Emilie provided? If not, is there a place to get the .sysx files of the individual stock sounds? Looking forward to some 6OP FM sounds on my plaits!

Where is the drum/percussion coming from? That also sounds great.

on another note, Great video, thank u

Can you tell me what you sent into the inputs in the 8-bit arpeggio part? Sounds sick!!😮

I am amazed - how did you generate the beats?

This is awesome. Your way of approaching this is inspirational and gets into some serious Hotline Miami vibes. The Unperson videos on plaits, recently, were something that made me go back to this module,. Now im looking at buying a second one after this video.

Does the new from ware update come stock with 2022 model? Or do you still need to flash it ?

by the way the protogen joke has something to do with furries i am not an expert, but protogens are like cyberfurries.

Can it process guitar like a guitar pedal? I use RINGS like that and it's perfect.

🍅 Anybody 7:28 What module on a Kick>? very good

when you update the firmware do you still have the original sounds plus the newly added

Quick question. What are you using to sequence the Plaits? I cant see the cables going into other modules. Hearing some nice patterns there. Thanks!

5:16 Don't think you're slick Jeremy, I know the origins of that image!

hi, what are drums made please? at 7:28

🔥🔥🔥

Why is channel 2's wave fully maxed out and clipping like that? Is it that channel set to a different scale / voltage range? The number at the bottom looks the same but maybe I'm just blind.

16:03 is lush.

I am sorely disappointed in you for releasing this video and mentioning that Patchwerks was your local store, it's local for me too and now it is a serious problem. :P
