The first 3 mins of synth music is some of the most pleasing I've heard in a while. Thanks

possibly one of the best introductory videos on modular synthesis & the basics of synthesis in general available on youtube

I just ordered that sequencer module. It didn't occur to me to use it for gates. I bet it would make a dandy drum sequencer for kick and snare. You could then feed the gate output into a clock divider/multiplier to trigger your hats. I am super excited to start playing with this model. I saw a video where someone was doing audio rate stuff with the sequencer. It will be fun to experiment with the sequencer as a VCO of sorts. Looks like you get a ton of value for money in that module. I already have the system 100 module with sample & hold, rig mod, and LFO. I definitely plan on getting more system 100 modules given their price and my income level. Thanks a ton for making this video.

Nice video concept. It's definitely a great paradigm to start with. The 3 module setup you use is a perfect example, as is the classic "D set" that Roland suggested back in the day (112, 121, 130, 140, 150). You can then dive off into the more complex stuff from there. Physically patching signal paths and control signals was such an important learning tool for me when I first tried the 100m. It explains things so much better than words can. Nice cases too btw. Looks very neat.

I’ve been fighting the urge to get into modular synths for months! Watching a ton of videos on KZfaq just makes the whole thing more confusing! Gotta say this video really has cleared some of the confusion. 👍🏽🙏🏽

Thanks for this video, I just got a eurorack and this simple setup you show here made it easier to see what you are doing then watching a video with a super sized rack.

Wow, this is really the best introduction ever seen on the web. Thanks a lot for it!

I finally bit the bullet and started my modular journey… your videos have been incredibly helpful! These Behringer units are the direction I’m going right now, for a synth module at least. A drum/ percussion unit will be after. Thank you so much for these wonderfully helpful vids.

You deserve all the praise you get for your hard work, Tim. This is a wonderful exposition!

Much of what I know about modular synthesis is thanks to you. you have the talent to explain very clearly. Thanks!!!

Tim, this is a perfect tutorial for the Behringer System 100: clear, smooth and calm and perfectly executed, both visually and content-wise - just what I needed before taking the plunge! I have now ordered a set of S100 components to start building my own System 100 setup. Thanks mate!

Thank you so much Tim for an awesome modular intro video.

Tim this is a fantastic video and just what I’ve been looking for. You’ve opened a door by providing insight and understanding. I’ll definitely start with the modules you suggest and take it from there. Really looking forward to more videos in this series. Thank you for this. Much appreciated.

I’m just starting out with modular and this video is exactly what I needed. Thank you!

By far the best modular start up video I've seen, great job 👍

Years later thar intro is still 🔥

Really good stuff Mr. Tim. Very helpful and you've taught me a lot. I'm getting learning a ton information from. Also those little box racks are perfect for what I'm planning. Thanks so much. Your are the man.

Great "beginners" modular video. One of the best I've seen. Answered a lot of my questions.

great video, re-awoke my love of modular synths even though I made one of my own and have been working with and designing them for years, well done!

I was really hoping you were going to cover this module. Thanks!! Awesome video, as always!

This is such a helpful video, thanks so much for posting this Tim. Love these modules, seem like great bang for the buck. Well done.

Full disclosure, Tim. I don’t have much interest in Eurorack as I already own a good sized MU format modular. But this video is excellent. Your understanding and logical approach to the confusing world of modular is a benefit for all viewers, regardless of what gear they end up using. Subscribed.

Thank you. I’ve learned so much from this video and you answered a lot of questions I had. Best explanation for patching I’ve see so far. Subscribed.

What a lovely video! Thank you, Tim, for sharing this. Very helpful, and not only for Behringer gear.

I saw quite a few eurorack videos, but this is definitly first time I really got interested. Your simple case "wholesynth" setup is awesome!

Thanks alot for this great demo! Inspired by your videos I decided to order a first basic set of the Behringer System 100 modules.

Tim...I love your work flow, vibe and teaching....thank you my friend.

Worth every minute of time watching this video soo much to be learned from this great example of an educational video. And add to that some great sounding music!

Fantastic! I have watched a ton of videos on modular to try and grasp it and yours as by far the most simple and easy to grasp. Thank you!

Tremendously clear and concise as always Tim, thank you.

Tim, your videos are so amazingly useful and I love the way they are made. It's such a pleasure to watch them. I'm getting so much more out of my own Behringer system 100 now thanks to you. It's such a long time since I fiddled with the Roland ones and I only had very basic modules, so I was kind of lost in the beginning, until I watched your videos. I can see now that I could have gotten a lot more out of my old system back then than I ever thought was possible. Thank you so much for these videos.

Thanks for making this tutorial Tim! I just bought a System 100m set of modules and your video has been a great help!

Really nice video- great to see how these modules work.

This is by far the best intro to Modular I could imagine. Thank you so very much for your efforts!

The key to an successful video presentation is coming up with beautiful and creative interludes.

Very well explained the basics of synthesis! Looking forward to the sequels.

Thank you sir for your knowledge, generosity, and time. Inspirational.

Two years old and saving my bacon! Just getting into modular and dipped my toes with the 110. This was incredibly helpful!

This is sooooo soothing...also I am now addicted to eurorack. Thanks Tim! 🙂

Thank you. That's it. For abnormally useful (and interesting) content on KZfaq!

Thanks for the video, happy new year to you and your family

You saved my first days with my first modular system. Thank you so much!

The 110 is a great sounding oscillator. Fantastic video Tim. Thank you much.

Great video, I found this really helpful. You've got an excellent way of explaining modular synthesis. Thank you!

Wow mate, great video! Thank you so much for sharing. What a time to be alive. I've been using software VCV Rack (and reason) for a while but wanted to dip my toe back in the analogue / modular world. Wow It's changed a lot :) Great video thank you !

Hi Tim, thanks for this video, these are exact the topics I deal with at the time :-) Well done as always.

Many thanks for this excellent video. You explained very well how to use this sequencer.

That was great. Just the perfect video for a noob like me. Really appreciate that. Too many videos show a patch but never truly explain it. Thanks again!

How could anyone give a shoebridge video a thumbs down? All his videos are great

Just gotta say Tom ..thanks for these video tutorials ! .. i`ve been thinking of getting into this modular thing for a while now but have been put off by the perceived complexity of it all ..but your explanations and presentation style are a breath of fresh air !.. i`m now ready to take the plunge !...thanks again Steve

What I like about this little sequencer is that you can influence the speed of the sequence with CV. I bought two of these and one controls the speed of the other.

wonderful video for beginners. clears pretty much how to start the 100

This is by far the best introduction to modular ive seen. Havent had the confidens to try it out more seriously. This series is great. Thank you.

I need more time in the semi-modular world before even seriously considering this an an option- but this would be the place to start. Great video, great looking modules at an attractive price, and- here- great sounds. Thank you- I think...

This was absolutely amazing! I am getting into music again after a 15+ year long hiatus. This was truly inspirational!

I enjoyed this so much. It also made me appreciate Range selection to 2600 style frq slider, ms2000 three layer sequencer, effects of nts1 or alesis micron. Your videos are always triggering ideas and very inspirational

Nice. Love the huge sounds you pull out.

Tim you found the perfect cases for those Roland-esque modules. Really makes it look like the OG 100m stuff. EDIT : 11:40 and then you said exactly what I was thinking.

Thanks a lot Tim - this is spot on the video I needed!!

Thank you very much & all the best for '21. Very helpful!

Great, helpful, musical, accurate and elegant. Thank you

Thank you for this excellent videos Tim. Very informative!

I like the way those modules create a nice integrated sound.

Thanks for posting this! The world of Eurorack is pretty daunting, and this video really is a great primer for starting in modular. I ended up building the same modular shown here (Behringer 110, 140, 182, and a Doepfer low cost case), and it cost me just below $400 US. I lucked out and found the case for $90 on Reverb, and ordered the modules through Thomaans. It really is great value for money, and just great fun all around. Thanks again!

Very nice introduction , sound of these modules are very creamy and spacy -endless sequencing is perfect way to enjoy them. I supplemented mine with VCF-505 for extra flavour

Really nice Video, great Explenation, Made the Things useful to use, its a great Idea for These Tutorial

awesome video and what´s even more important, awesome music!

Such a nice demo of the 110 and 140. Those where exactly the two and only Roland System 100m modules I had myself back in the 80s, together with the case and master keyboard. They were, like you said, the absolute minimum for a synth with these modules and was all I could afford because of the prices back then ;-)

I hope you earn something from doing this, you are so educative! And as a keyboard player myself, it’s interesting to hear your perspective on eurorack. Thank you.

Brilliant review on the Behringer System 100! Now I have to buy it... :D

These videos are great Tim! I think that if I get into eurorack this will be how I start. I have a brother in law with a marvelous wood shop and I have the wherewithal to build the power supplies so that would be my way around the insane cost of eurorack cabinets. Behringer modules would be my way around the insane cost of so many other modules on the market too. At least to start anyway.

Excellent video, exactly the information I was looking for. ✌️

thanks for this. Mine arrived yesterday and is my first eurorack module :)

Great video Tim! I don't have a modular (yet) and I want this three module setup so badly now.

Loved every second of this video.

Hey Tim, I want to thank you very much for your fantastic work. I'm a Bass player for nearly 35 years and during this weired times I found my love for Synthesizers. I've sold a lot of instruments and bought my first Moog Synths (Matriarch, Grandmother, Mother 32, Dfam) I decidet to buy no instruments with presets or the possibillity to save patches. I want to understand and learn how these beautifull instruments work and react. The possibillity to patch on this semimodular synths is another reason I bought them. The Subharmonicon and the Behringer 2600 are on there way after watching your very interesting Videos about those instruments. I've learned and understand so many things because youre stile of explaining things is on a very high level (even for a beginner like me). This Video is also very mindopening.

Thanks for creating this video Tim. I’m new to the euro rack and am going the ARP 2500 route as they come in. These videos will help me get to up to speed while the modules become available. Looking forward to future videos from you on this subject. Best wishes!

This is very well explained and helpful. Thank you.

Great video Tim, simplified the ever so complicated... great tune at 20:18 too :-)

Thank you! so much, this was both informative and educating.

Nice piece of work Tom

Wow actually just picked up a Doepher LC1 case, behringer 150 and attenuators to further modulate a Moog grandmother. This video speaks to me! Looking for the 110 next.

Great video, and really useful to me even tho I dont use any of the system 100 stuff. Thanks!

great great content. your channel needs way more subs. The music is FANTASTIC

Fantastic overview. Main issue with the Behringer 100 System modules is the difficulty in finding the 110, 112 and 182 in stock anywhere. First World OCD Crisis for those of us who would like the complete system! Although using one of the resonant filters as a sine wave is a good start.

Good content , cool gear , great jam . Nice 😊

Thank you! Very nice overview!

Probably the most helpful video I’ve seen regarding modular synthesisers. Keeping down to three modules was an inspired choice and the way you explained the passage of sound using the patch cables really unlocked a lot of mystery. Any chance you could follow this up with showing how you can get different sounds from just these three modules or even which modules to buy next to take the sound in different directions? Overall well done Tim.

Ah i am seeing the hall of Fame Flashback there too. 👍 i think behringer owes you a lot for this demo, since i went to take the leap into modular because of your Last Video and reply

Thank you for this, beautiful music and advice, aaand for helping to save me from throwing away a whole lot of money on a Original 😊 Kind regards

Cool, a nice and small but complete synthesizer in a box. Please keep on making videos like this for beginner in modular synthesis. Using a Doepfer A-156 Quantizer would make it much easier to set the tuning of the sequencer-steps. You have some TC Electronic gear in your studio. The polytune guitar tuner will work well for this purpose. Hope that Behringer releases a quantizer for the 100 series. A combination of dual sequential switches and dual quantizer would be nice. Thank´s for your video and inspiration.

Great tutorial! Really appreciated.

Nice, there it is. Already got the 110 too by now! Getting started with my planned duophonic Synthesizer... already bought too much stuff to make it complicated... 😅

Very nicely done ! 👍✌️🙏

@TimShoebridge Great video, as always. Happy 20/21!

great intro to modular synthesis!

I love playing with moog eurorack, but these modules look more logically arranged for a beginner and will help me learn faster. 11:36 great Doepfer case. Love the logical module design too.

What a great video- thanks so much!

Bought one of the modules just to check the quality, cheap enough to try it out. Have the 173, tons of multiples. Very good quality. Now I need to grab that sequencer if I can find it.

Excellent video! Thanks so much ❤️
