I love this channel. I found it about a month ago and it was an instant favorite. Now it is my favorite. Lots of places to find this info, but Ricky's enthusiasm and passion has made this my go to spot. Nice work Ricky

Pro 2 owner here, and you would love it. There are many similarities in how the synths are set up to be sure, but you would love having the choice of wavetables on all four oscillators, especially with the tricks you have shown here (the wave reset one is new one to me, so thanks). The 2 doesn't have as many effects, but there are four delays, and you can do a host of things with them. Oddly enough, the most vintage sounding things I get are from the Pro 2; it might be the SEM filter, or the VCA. But every synth head adores the Pro2.

Pro2 was my first DSI and i just love it! It's versatile and still suprises me today after 4 years. I have a pro 3 also but the pro2 is still my favourite. :)

I always get so stoked when I see a notification of you dropping a vid 🤟 youve helped me explore new workflows and get much more creative!

This is the best video I've ever seen on KZread. I'm learning more about how to use my Pro 3 than I could have ever discovered alone. All the best to you. The Pro 3 is the best synthesizer in my entire life. Thank you Dave Smith!

The end of the jam at the end is downright insane. That was nuts Ricky!

These tips are amazing, really excited to try them.

These synth tip videos always make me create a fresh patch on my synth, you're the LFO wizard bro

So many dope tricks! Always love these vids. So much fun, laid back and I learn something new. 🙌🏾

A great piece of work. The camera setup and editing is so slick and professional. Informative and fun.

Man so happy to see your vids man. Great vibe , great info. I bought the Pro3 because of you. Thanks

More, more,more... thanks Ricky, always a pleasure to watch,listen and learn. Going to try some of these on the Iridium. I hope you can get your hands on one sometime as I am sure you will make it sing.

I like the calm way of delivering those interesting synthledge...

Great video thanks, really interesting watching you just getting into exploring and trying stuff out. I learned a lot of features of the Pro3 which I just got!

These sessions get the creativity goin, man. Thank you.

Fantastic session Ricky, thanks for teaching me some new tricks.

Many thanks, each time you touch a Pro 3 i learn so much, great channel, great guy, i enjoy your work and samples packs too :) :)

I’m digging the new mic drop endings. Keep it up!

19:35 beautiful timbre. thanks for sharing all these ideas. very helpful for understanding

Hey Enrique, love all your stuff. Would also love to see some more vids of your live sets/ jamming as well. I really like when you jam out at the end of your videos. Keep up the good work!

Another thought instead of using sample and hold LFO idea: Just use the "random" parameter in the mod matrix so you don't use an LFO to get a random value per hit. I use this on each oscillator which adds slight pitch adjustments per keypress all the time. Great video!

@@RickyTinez yes indeed! It's one of my favorite mod sources to use on Sequential/DSI synths.

That's a beautiful synth, the design of the front panel is pron for geeks and the sound possibilities could keep you happy for years.

love that LFO technique that triggers with every key hit. nice!

love that S & H idea with the wavetable! Very cool!

Keep up the awesome content Ricky, we love you. Stay safe

32:11 That face you make when you stumble on some of that good stuff! Ricky's not playing around!

Thanks for another great video. I’m constantly oscillating between the pro3 and subsequent37 they both sound so different but so good.

Nice init bass sound, good idea. Favorite mono synth out there right now, and maybe favorite synth in general for the variety of sound and for the 64 step sequencer with parameter automation.

Excellent video. CS tricks! You’re an old school synth guy. Thanks for your expertise Ricky!

I feel like you can do another 2 videos with pro 3 with no problem due to Pro3's modulation capabilities. Looking forward to make more tracks with it and listen more music made by it!!

Thanks for the Pro 3 vids. Here we go with Pro 3 Tuesday.

I love your quiet style in your understated house.

I love that synth and I love this video! dopeness.

integrating with eurorack is awesome!! digital brain and sequencer here, with a huge variety of possibilities from the modular.

FYI, Waldorf NW-1 eurorack wavetable oscillator allows 8 seconds recording time to instantly create a user wavetable. It's drawback being there's no amp envelope to turn notes off and on - they're continuous. Love Sequential Pro 3, but hope they do a rackmount, as I'm all synthed out here for space.

Wavetable synthesis - especially on pro 3 - depend on wavetables you want to use. You can have flatter wavetables with less "positions" as you call them. The max resolution for the user wavetable is from small 128 to 1024 max samples long. So, you can create your own waveforms that, if you like, you don't have to scan at all. I work a lot with wavetables and try to find PPG-esque ground with analog filters and wavetables.

You can explain extra cool. Like it.

I purchased the SE version and its arriving next friday (i hope) :)

Hey man you got me I subbed you and like your vid, your vids are very helpful especially when you have a pro 3 three to dig in too I am enjoying the synth more as I learn how to send this modulation to another source etc,, etc,,

Nice video! Great synth. I still prefer the Pro2 and Prophet 12, though, for sound design.

I don't have the pro 3 but I liking Rocky's vids before I watch them . One of the best synth music people on KZread ✊

This thing has been the best part of quarantine for me. I bought one a week after the pandemic was declared.

Was probably a good move. I should have done that too.

This is incredible

Ricky u legend!

what's happening with your square wave LFOs is that one is switching to one octave while the other is also switching to one octave, there's a brief gap in the switching time where the oscillator has no LFO value acting on it and therefore creating that little blip you're hearing as the oscillator is trying to go back to "+0" modulation for that little slice of time. Not sure the solution but just thought I'd clarify what's going on there.

I'm now saving for Prophet 5, but maybe the next will be Pro3. Would be fun to run the Prophet via this filter...

I’m liking this synth but I’m concerned with the menu diving or countless switch combos in order to access a function. I’m looking for a synth that sits between a classic minimoog and an access virus, wonder if this one might be it? Awesome video, very informative and nicely done 👏🏻 👏🏻

A misc parameter button seems so convoluted lol... I love how the dm12 has edit buttons next to each section.

I may be fanboying over Sequential, but the back of Pro3 looks so badass, and for lack of a better word, professional. Like it would really fit in some 70s bw studio photos

Thanks for great video as always. I think I’m going to return my pro 3 and buy again the moog subsequent 37. This synth sounds a amazing but somethings with the interface and the creative flow not works for me as well like the moog does. Thanks again for your great content ✌🏼

2:43 and mine pro2 really makes me want the pro 3.

you owe us a jam, the last part was "set up for jamming" at most ;-)

Running a sine wave to a bitcrusher on a send is a great idea-in the digital realm. If you’re doing that on an analog mixer and actually sending the sine through a physical bitcrusher box, that signal will be out of phase with your original sine, thus creating a cancelling out of certain frequencies when mixed back together. The musical result is that some notes will sound great and others will have no bass. It’s a dope trick, but works best when “in-the-box”

@devonhughes3805

Empty Fame if you think about it, a digital bitcrusher is going to have a tiny bit of latency which will cause the processed signal to be out of phase with the original...although, in thinking more deeply about Ricky’s application, if the notes of the sine waves are low enough, the phase change may not result in a cancellation.

Something about your inability to play like incredibly and your honesty is awesome. Great tutorial.

_There's a random source in the mod matrix, so you don't need to use up an lfo for that static sample and hold, and you can have as many as there are mod slots. _You can stack row upon row of rythmical variations with the sequencer (it's not just for notes), you can slew them, and record automation in real time. _Pro2 does not have wavetables. It has some digital waves, and you can morph between three of them. much more limited, and they don't sound that great. I was hoping for some interesting things that make this synth shine, like using the wavetable as an LFO (also useable in duophonic mode), modulating the reverb and other fx parameters, the amazing sequencer and certainly the CV interfacing. It's amazing as a modular hub, you sure are missing out!

12:04 that's why i love this channel

Pro2 is a bit different. It’s got like single cycle wave forms but you can set a neighbor left and right to build your own three position wavetable for each of the 4 osc.

28:20 "sorry you had to hear that". Exactly I'm glad to hear that, I like to play bitonal :-)

whaat. that jam at the end. wow. so dark. it was the full event horizon fall

Have you taken a dive into the ext in? I’ve been wanting to get something good from a guitar or bass but I only end up using the effects. Not a bad thing, but I have a pedalboard for that. Loving the videos!

Very good point, because several synths with inputs change the sound in a way I don't like. Not distortion, kind of sucking the life from it, making it bland. Hopefully Pro 3 won't do this.

Cool, now we have Easter Eggs in synthesizers.

9:55 what a ring modulator does is AM, so it is tremolo (although guitarists would call it vibrato, because they always mix those two up)

Nice tips, pro 2 and 3 both really appealing for their interfaces and modulation . why sell the xpander? I have one, interface and size can be awkward but sounds great.

I never understood why anyone would buy a mono synth until now. The price is very reasonable too. Thanks for all these great Pro 3 videos!

Is that really how the Pro 3 looks in person? The lower panel looks really blue in some photos but it looks great in your video - like a nice black and grey combo. What are the cheeks made of? Do you find the angle nice to see the LCD? I'm thinking it's probably not worth £500 for the SE. Does it have a live panel mode like the OB-6 and Prophet 6? I really need that.

Any chance you can do the Hydrasynth? I haven't heard a singular synth that good in awhile...

Boom boom boom, and we got something pretty going :-)

Thats killer I just made a patch called Ricky rag that has Lfo 1. S&H over Osc 3 shape + filter Lfo 2. S&H over Vca release Lfo 3. S&H over distortion Aux env 1. Over Osc 1 shape positive Aux env 2. Over Osc 2 shape negative 64 step random. Its great Thanks

Is the Roland System 8 capable of tricks like these or the trick in your last video. Can’t figure out if the lfo is patched or not. Thanks.

therapy time :)

I was wondering which cables do you use for the synths?

Thank you Ricky. Good stuff! I love my Pro 3. It’s always cool to see what others do with theirs because it really is mod matrix powerhouse! The “buzzy” sound you’re referring to with the triangle wave and what you like to add to help your bass sounds cut through a mix are called harmonics. These are additional higher frequencies that ride on the main carrier wave.
