He got me playing with my distortion now wow really cool video

Underrated technique: put something inside the external input feedback loop. Putting my BOSS BF-2 flanger inside my microbrute's feedback loop created sounds very different than putting it just in the normal position after the synth,

Thanks for letting us bath in distortion. I feel like cleaned by that aesthetic assertiveness.

To be able to get in touch with your knowledge it's just an amazing experience. I am a guitar player myself but I love the keyboards (play a bit), production and music history (you're part of it). We're all watching this happening and it's a privilege, we'll see 100K subscribers soon, and more and more. The keyboard comunity must share your channel, we must give back to you. Thanks Anthony, thank a lot!

Perfectly said my man 😉

Before the thriller series I never knew about Anthony, but I’m glad I do now!

Totally agree, every synth can benefit from distortion!

Hey Antony. Great to see you keep the cameras rolling and the videos coming! I get the impression you're really getting into it. Seems like you're getting more comfortable in front of the lens, and your production value keeps improving. May your snowball of KZread success keep growing!

Yes I am!

"sometimes it's just fun to turn knobs" the truth of synthesizers straight from one of the most talented masters. Could listen and watch you experiment turning knobs all day 👍👍, however, I have a couple synths that need some knob turning as well 😂. Thanks for the knowledge and ideas!!

Truly epic video! Thanks so much for walking on the dark side with those of us who appreciate a bit of grit with our synths!

That Mutron was pure destruction! It was absolutely JOYFUL to watch you go "wowowowow" along with the synths, man. You can tell you love it. I do the same thing.

Hey Anthony, this is a great tutorial reminding us what we might be missing! I have used drive from time to time on my hardware synths: there's a Level 42 instrumental on the first album called "43", and I play a Moog solo with a square waveform, and we split the output so that we got a clean sound into the desk and a driven sound into a guitar amp (I don't remember which amp, could have been a Fender Twin or maybe a Marshall) anyways - as we go through the solo and it develops, the amped sound gradually takes over until on the last note I get feedback - I think Mark (King) was dialling the gain controls on the amp.

Hey Anthony man i appreciate everything you doing you never know life you impacting

im absolutely blown away,your knowledge is outdone by your generosity Anthony,thank you.

I am addicted to this channel, also love all the sounds you made on the Synclavier Regen, hope you do a dive into that some day and make more libraries, but I would love to see what you do with the Sherman Filter, that is always in all your videos. Super Thank you for this awesome channel. Cheers!!

Thanks as always Sir Anthony!! Going to load up that Arturia Mini Moog v3 and go in!! Peace.

Cool sounds and ideas! As always great stuff Anthony!!

so grateful for your efforts. this one was absolute ear candy.

Excellent video Anthony and crew, so many inspiring ideas to try!

The Arp 2600 really loves some drive. And the Moog with resonance hits hard. That sound is why Analog is king of dirt. Love it! That hyper fuzz through the Moog is my favourite.

Really cool sounds! Thanks for sharing Anthony!

I absolutely love these in-depth tutorials! Please keep them coming 😍

Hi dear Anthony. Very inspirational video,...I used to own these vintage Minimoog and Arp's synths in the 90's but lost them in a tragic happening, these day's i am at Poly D and 2600 by Behringer,..I have now tried to do exact what you showed here to recreate it on these modern takes of the real deal,..and belive it or not the Poly D and 2600 did create the same result desentley. Thanks a ton for these videos you put out,..and thanks for your presence

We are honored to have a mind like Anthony's engaging with the public and sharing his knowledge! ❤

Your channel has fast become one of my favorite on KZread. Always something fantastic to watch here.

That’s was a real joy , much thanks 👾🎛️🎹🔉🔊

Grandmaster Marinelli - i bow in youre shadow ,- 😂 🙌🙏

Awesome video Anthony, this ended my search for a great sounding distortion unit. Thank you!

Anthony you got me into synths and music production thank you, Cortney

Nothing more inspiring and informative! Thank you Anthony for your channel and all the wonderful music!!!

Enjoyed this practical distortion demo. Great ideas here. Thanks again!

Awesome I love playing with distortion on synths!

Note that you don't need a Moogerfooger that costs your right arm and your firstborn … I use an "Electro-Harmonix Operation Overlord" stereo pedal for my Roland TR-09 (a boutique 909 module) that cost like $150 and provides great results as it has a "Mix" knob, which the otherwise awesome Erica Synths Acidbox III doesn't have.

Amazingly understadable sound design trip here. Thanks for the masterclass.

This lesson is essential. I'll be trying this. Thank you 😊

Thanks for sharing!!👍

Awesome! I really enjoy your videos, Anthony! Never a dull moment. Greetings

This is just wonderful, priceless knowledge and experience and a joy to watch. Keep them coming please.

One of my favourite ways of gritting up synths and drum machines is to run them through an old Boss EQ pedal - +/-15dB of gain, plus the same on each band - really good as a fequency selective drive.

There also is that inexpensive TC electronics 1140 rack EQ around, that has a built in pre. This thing also rocks for distorting synths and drum machines. Tobi Neumann showed me this trick back in the days when rave culture just began.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge on these wonderful instruments ❤

It's not just the wondrous experimentation with the pedals that gets me - it's your always musical way of presenting these sounds!, even when just playing "simple" bass lines! It feels like you instantly know what the sound needs in order to give it character. I love this channel

Great video as ever. Thanks for this fantastic lesson

Amazing good effects.❤

Anthony! This is pure gold! Thank you! I also see that you have a Sherman Filterbank 2 hanging out next to your Moog. Would you ever consider exploring some of the filter fun that you can get from that?

Very cool video thank you 😊

cool stuff some really gnarly sounds here just playing with the knobs finding those sweet spots

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! It was fun comparing all of those different sounds and listening to them through my studio monitors! The minimoog is KING!!! Also love the Arp 2600, and so neat how each peddle adds different tone colors.

I appreciate the run through Anthony. I do love seeing people who love sound working with varieties of tones in this way. You got some terrifically nasty tones. I have a couple Multimoogs (still). It was back in the early eighties when I first heard of the Minimoog input trick. Of course the Mini and Multi have different ins and outs, etc. With some experimentation, I found that I liked the overdrive that I got by routing the Multi’s audio back into the filter input, rather than the audio input more. Eventually, I used a Boss Turbo OD on the Multi, but a RAT pedal seemed to pair better with a Matrix 6.

This knowledge is priceless. Thanks for sharing

Anthony it’s such a pleasure watching you produce these great sounds and talking about the intricacies of the petals, amazing! If you’re ever in the Netherlands, you should definitely come to the Conservatory of Amsterdam to talk to the students as you are inspiring new generations with a great legacy! ❤

The plugin setup at the end was super interesting. So different than the hardware versions that are more organic for sure.

This is unique content. The combination of your pleasant personality and your insane knowledge and musicality, is just priceless! So helpful and inspiring for us synth-players and musicians. Thank you!

Boss HM-2 actually has a bit of a cult status in the deathmetal scene. It's also called swedish buzzsaw. The FZ-2 has bit of a similar status on the doom metal scene although it's maybe less popular.

As an engineer, watching you yank patch cables out like that makes me want to scream. :)

Awesome vid sir!

Thanks Anthony - this is great content - even for newbies like me.

Thanks for the video. Your studio looks nice and in order.

fantastic video, lots talk about distortion but great seeing different approaches and hardware

This was a very cool video. Neat 2600 patch ideas, and excellent to hear all those pedals. Thanks for including a comparison between the Moogerfooger hardware and the VST version. The tones from the Boss Hyper Fuzz were great, too. I'm going to go play with distortion now. :)

amazing! I hope this is available on my moog one too

Amazing to have Mr. Marinelli teaching us how to drive! 🚗 🚙🔝

Great video, Anthony! Now i need a synthesizer :) I start with a humble Jupiter 8 :) Keep doing these videos.

Am I the only one having trouble controlling my beow-waow mouth movements watching this awesome stuff?

Put your mouth around your phone mic while he plays to simulate a filter

Of all those wonderful, high-end instruments and effects... I have the Joyo, and you make it sound good! Thanks for demonstrating all this drive and v distortion.

It would be really cool to see a series finding the differences in sound between analog gear and software

I'm mainly a bass player who moonlights a little into the world of synths, because I find them so interesting with endless sonic capabilities and absolutely love this channel. This was a wonderful demonstration. The emulators/plugin at the end is why I will NEVER leave the analog world. Not only the difference in sound but sometimes it's just fun to turn knobs.

Marvelous. I could listen to all these wonderful sounds on loop all evening. I'm now off to order a new pedal... but which ! ! ? ?

It truly did help me find my tone! Give me that grinding gain! 😂

Wonderful lesson Anthony. Many thanks. I like that you are going to consider VSTs too. They are cheap and allow us to try tecnhiques also if we don't own a real minimoog

WOW.. Some of the coolest sounds I have ever heard, I need a mini Moog!! Subd

Being a prog/techno DJ from the 90s, (had 303s/909/sh5/Jd800 ..etc, I appreciate Uli bringing the 2600, Poly D and MonoPoly to the masses. . Peace😊

That fuzz pedal sounds amazing! I've used an overdrive pedal, the Boss heavy metal & death metal pedals but never the fuzz. I gotta grab that for my Bass Station.

Man this video is awesome

I love love love these videos

these videos are great!

I do love your Masterclass Tutorials so much (especially for the 2600.. the Prophet & the Model D) thank you dearly….they mean a World to me (and us) 🔥👍 ….Anthony you are close to 100K now…I've already put the champagne cold to celebrate your deserved 100K 🥂✨🍾 🎉

You're such a wizard!

Nice trick!

Extraordinary ❤

Fantastic and Practical. I want the Anthony M signature 2600 series 😮

great video that thumbnail is bomb btw!

Great tips.

that’s magic man!

DPW DESIGN MOG D-2 is great for running synths (or anything else ) through.

Now I have two Marinelli’s synth freaks guiding me, One younger and one older, I just can’t Fing lose !😂

"Pretty fun." I just cant believe that MJ's synth programmer is showing me stuff! This is the best thing to come of the internet. I wish MJJ was alive today. All the people he has given love to, and received it with beautiful people like Anthony. His and your legacy will be eternal.

A big difference between the SEM and Two Voice is not just two voices but the fact the output mixer is basically an MXR Distortion Plus with two inputs. The muSonics modular takes this into account, along with allowing the filter and VCA to overdrive as well.

I also have a joyo pedal but never really used it, only for gain on my Korg & Uno. Thanks for the demo. Cheers

Terrific tutorial! I think an oscilloscope display (and maybe even a spectral display) would have helped with this to illustrate what you are describing.

reminded how good the mini sounds all on its own

Great Stuff, Nasty sounds

With digital multi-fx it seems that the od/ds/fz section is still behind analog pedals. Time based and modulation fx can be absolutely fantastic in the digital domain. Have put a Boss DS-1 on drummachine (kick & snare) and with the gain/distortion low (12 o'clock or lless) you get a crunch and maintain dynamics. My KingKorg (not an ARP 2600 or MiniMoog) has this boost/drive option with a real tube in synth 😅

Congratulation brother🎉

Thanks for this. I ended up getting the Joyo American Sound Pedal and have been running my synths through it to get some grittiness. Going to try the Boss Heavy metal next.

Rock on!

My all time favorite distortion technique is to use a cheap Mackie mixer and overdrive the preamp! Has a very crunchy and dirty sound. Works great on drums.

Sherman Filterbank distortion!!!

never thought about distorting lfo signals before very interesting idea

Wow, the hyper fuzz on a minimoog ripped my tv speakers 🤯 that was nuts

great stuff here from a legend.🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽
