..hey brother maybe you can help me out I have 2 questions..? ..I am trying to find out what module DJ Surgeon used in his boiler room set to rip sick acidlines threw much of his modular + Ableton Live set 5 years ago here is the link.. "Surgeon Boiler Room x Dekmantel Festival Live Set" kzread.info/dash/bejne/iattuNaEodPYhbw.html someone mentioned the original basimilus iteritas..? ..I doesn't sound acidy enough in other videos I have seen on the original basimilus iteritas but obviously this video of yours showcases some sick acidlines.. second part of my question.. I don't think the Basimilus Iteritas Alter was available 5 years ago so if it is the Basimilus Iteritas it must be the original version..? ..thank you in advance..

Agree, Basimilus Iteratus is a great module for so many thinks beyond percussion. I use is in pretty much all of my patches.

That was amazing man, superb!

Hey man, never heard about your channel, first video I saw. Amazing stuff, best video on the Basimilus I could find!

Ripples so good I have 2 of them! But yes the BIA is crazy for bass

Definitely a great video. There's one of these waiting in my mailbox right now.

Nice one. I love this thing too.

So.. I saw your video.. Decided to buy this one for some bassline and percussion. I didn't really knew what to expect...after using it, I can say: I need a second one. The kickdrum this thing brings is out of this world. Especially for industrial - techno, with only one touch you go from a oh-this-is-a-nice-kick to a fuck-this-is-raw-kick. Perfect for live gigs. But now I still need a percussion machine

Ordered one before watching. Can't wait.

This is defo one of my favourite modules. I did an amazing experiment random modulating it. I made a 100 sound sample pack then started making tracks out of nothing but the vast and bizarre sounds I got out of it. So inspiring. I need to do it with the Taiko next.

I just ordered mine. I just had to have it especially after watching this video! [EDIT 5 days later] I got it in yesterday and OMG! It's friggin' amazing!!

That module can literally kill crowds and that's a good thing. I love it, I have three in my set up atm. Also I love the coffee, I can smell it...

Love the idea of this in lieu of a collection of individual perc modules. Boy I would love to see this paired with something like Clank Chaos.

your reactions and commentary is priceless! =)

Great review, thanks

I call massive peer pressure on consumer goods across the board~ !!!! Yes Awesome vid! Yes I probably will head over and put yet another module in the wishlist...Guh, yer vidya'z are addictive!

Your videos are so tasteful, your voice is amazing and your whole style is perfect for this type of video. Thank you for your work! I am a little more interested in the "dark brother" Manis Iteritas, but still... BIA is a beast!

Love the reaction at 9:45...BOOM!

Dope, would love to put together my own rack one day

I do need one of these...

I couldn't find one in Australia so got the Tymp legio. Theb they came back into stock so I will just have to get both. Tymp can be used to duck as well as make drum sounds but you can also change the furmware out and make it a dynamics processor or an oscilator instead. It makes great basslines as though.

Great video! The BIA is definitely joining my rack. While I have 2 sequencers (the 2hp and a keystep) which could be used as the main trigger and pitch, I'm curious to know if I could hook up MI Grids to trigger some of the many CV inputs on the BIA. Would that work?

@chetplease

2 жыл бұрын

grids sends triggers, it won't have much musical use. it'll make a sound, but not one that I expect you'll be able to do much with. THAT SAID, you could use grids to trigger some slower envelopes that would have more of a useful effect on the CV inputs

Loved it, pretty much went “ouuuh” at the same times as you 😄. Sold!

Hi mate great video. Is the Quadra being triggered by the clock and sending an envelope to the BIA, or free running? Thanks

I always wondered if I can get my Korg "monologue" to sound similar to the "B.I.A." Cuz the Korg "monologue" make something of a good drum machine and you could have 4 lanes of motion control?

Are you usung that sequencer for pitch, gates, or both? I just bought a BIA and I wonder If I can use my Qu-Bit Bloom since it has both pitch and gates?

i recently picked one of these up and i am finding it to be really harsh sounding when compared to my analog sounds sources. Any tips on how to get it to blend better?

I'm currently getting to know it before I make my video on it. My thoughts so far are that it doesn't seem to have massive low end while also set up for a super aggressive sound (but doubled with another oscillator would be sick) and it works well for snares more than kicks if you're going percussive. I think having both would be an epic combination!

What modul gives the trigger in the very left of the case?

9:54 or so.... woooo!

At 5:07 FLASH! WHAA-AHHHH!

Crazy thing is, this thing is actually so limited sonically, and yet its likely the only and most popular digital FM synth with additional wavefolding. The main problem with FM is that it's 99% miss and 1% hit, as well as being really difficult to navigate oneself, so to package such a thing in a Module would be very unpopular - even though it permits the user with the veritable possibility of designing their own and indeed new FM sounds. The alternate is to offer readymades, though this would then have to be designed by only a few developers and thus likely not strike everyone the same. I think this is the move however, as well as offering the additional wavefolding, because even though WF'ers often have a single or a few algorihtms only, they tend to compliment FM sounds and add that extra layer of movement or personalization. Granted they often sound liek trash, which I have no idea why that is.

The Ryk Vector Wave does FM and folding

are you the one dude from Das Racist?

This thing is incredible...What would be the most cost effective (cheap) way of putting one together. I need a case with power so that's like $200 the module is $350 I still need ADSR module, output module, filter mod, pitch mod. I don't need EFX yet. What would I need to generate sound at least. I could externally trigger it if need be.

@RickyTinez

6 жыл бұрын

honestly the BIA has the attack and Decay settings on the module so you can cut out a VCA and ENV. Filter would be nice but not necessary, shaping the wave brings out tones in the module which you can adjust on the module. You could also make a carboard case and get some flying bus cables like the 4ms power or deluxe sythrotek power. Sequencer would be nice to have to send it pitch and trigger (gate) so cheapest way would be: Sequencer + BIA + Power + Case.

I just got a beatstep pro and I was thinking about trying to sequence it with that, what do you think? Or shall I also buy a Pamela's new workout? How do you mute the different sounds from the BIA?

Serious GAS for a BIA ;-D

Did my wallet dirty with this one Ricky

I got the BIA a few weeks ago, and I didn’t realise how important a filter is to make it work. Without a filter, a lot of the sound shaping features like fold and harmonics produce are just not nuanced enough to be useful. With a filter you can tame it first and then go as crazy as you want whenever you want. Got a bit disappointed at first because I got the Manis Iteritas as well and that is an excellent single module voice, the BIA not quite as much.

😳

What kind of modulation, if any, is being applied to the filter when you jam?

sorry but i mean you make house and i cant even imagine this as a bassline in a housey way? also the input is a note on every step, i thought you disliked that since the PO 400?
