I've recently just begun my adventure through the world of modular, so seeing you doing tutorials on eurorack modules is extremely exciting and comforting to me! Looking forward to more modular videos (or any sort of video you decide to make).

I appreciate your comments about adhering to a rigid structure, compared to the more freeform melodies you created. Your approach to music-making inspires me. Thank you for publishing these videos!

This is exactly what I've been looking for since my journey in synthesizers. Will definitely be incorporating this in my rack, and possibly replacing others. Very informative video, thank you!

This is a great video of the Hermod. It was cool what the creator was demoing. For me just the depth of this device seems incredible. Halfway through this and reading some of the manual, I purchased one off Reverb! Very excited to try it with slaving internal clock to my DAW. Will be curious to experiment with CC control via the USB using my Roli Seabord. Further, polyphony is something that many sequencers just don’t have. Getting one one of these seems like a no-brainer. A huge thank you.

Best walkthrough I’ve seen of the Hermod. Thanks!!

Thanks Benjamin! Glad to hear that.

I think this is my favorite video of yours so far, musically and information wise - would love to know more about your little bastl rig! 👍

Thank You! Great practical walkthrough. I've been eyeing this module as my first sequencer but the demos have been, well over my head.Very cool!

This looks like a modular take on the squarp pyramid - no thank you I got one in the loft. J Horrobin

Awesome sequencer, and of course as always love your demos!

yes! Thank you! always looking for more ways to unlock this beasts potential!

I love the midi resolution. I just got one yesterday and so happy with it.

Thanks for sharing I saw a hermod for sale and this showed up in Google after watching I bought one had it one day now it's brilliant Although it was locking up bit at first but an update sorted that much better than sequencing with a DAW

Great track - love the piano!

Welp, this'll be my next module. The ability to record midi and keep it loose, oh man I've been searching for this!

Nice man, very though full explanations and love the mirror gimmick lol.

Love your channel!

Great job!

lovely demo :)) best wishes, flute man

Yeah! Standard level of awesomeness... :-)) thanks!

I really like how the unit pulls together my rig. I do get frustrated sometimes getting that first beat right in a new sequence when inputting a melody via keystep.

Mr cuckoo. Thanks for the video.. Can I Record non time-quantised on it? I mean gridless beats? To achieve my own style of groove ?

Hey cuckoo, thanks a lot for your work. Have you tried the Winter Modular Eloquencer ?

Great vid! Can the Squarp Hermod do polyphonic chords?

Another great video cuckoo!!! but whats this little sampler?

Would be nice some to have also some exploration of Hermod’s CV in. I’m trying to use a module to random trig CV and use a track in Hermod to quantize the random in to a scale. Can’t make it work thou. Any tip? Always like the mood of your tutorials. 🙏

Thanks for the video! Have you faced any latency issues? Is there any parameter for track delay compensation or something?

I'm curious how you feel about this Sequencer now that you are using the NerdSeq. Do you use both? Do you have any thoughts if you were to choose just one?

Thanks for the nice demo! What vco are you using?

Danke!

Cuckoo what is your favorite modular sequencer and why? I use my Korg SQ-1 and Make Noise 0-ctrl which are great for basic sequencer duties but as my modular system grows, feel a need for a better one. But I don't want endless menu diving otherwise I can just use my Elektron Octatrack and Analog 4 for that.

Can I use the LFO to modulate the speed of the sequence? Can I make it play random steps out of the sequence? Can I make it do both of the above at once?

you're just so goddamn wholesome - cool vid

Hi Cuckoo Can use one or multi arpeggiator in different tracks in real time with Hermod? Thanks :)

Can you send a clock to cv in and assign that clock to a track?

Does anyone know if you can trigger recording midi with the first note played. Thanks

I hate how small the screen is, but I can't find a better eurorack sequencer for me. I just really wish it was bigger, or there was display output option (like the Nerdseq has an expansion for).

I love to listen how you use it but still have one question. Is it also possible to use it just es usb2cv. I would like to use ableton as sequencer and use hermod to output 8 cv and gate coming from ableton live.

Did your una corda patch video get taken down?

I’m a bit late on this video, but i was wondering if is possible to use Hermod to connect digitakt, i mean , to have digitakt as main clock for the entire system, what do you think ?

Awesome demo, as always! Question: does each track allow for polyphonic midi sequencing?

@truecuckoo

6 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Yeah each track can be polyphonic. I don't think there's a poly limit on the MIDI output. The CV output per track is monophonic of course, and will depend on the effects what note they send out, if the sequence is polyphonic. Also there are polyphonic options to let one track use several CV outputs as polyphonic outputs.

How does it send and receive clock?

Oh my goodness, have you started dabbling in eurorack? :O I haven't noticed! I would love more content with modular gear from you.

Haha.. for now modulars is something that I'm following with great interest :) It takes a lot of dedication to go full on with modular, so I'm not sure I'll go fully modular. But I have been using it live a few occasions.

Nice. I'm at similar stage. Modular is awesome, but i don't think it's an "either or deal" with modular. The accessibility of subtractive or FM synthesis will always be better suited for live performances, while modular can do something crazy and wonderful in the studio. But that's just my take. :) In any case, i'll be interested to see your modular experience - i think your creative workflow is nicely compatible with the modular format.

yup first Cuckoo was into OP-1 and Elektrons now modular. Seems a pattern. Most folks I know who started on computers and Ableton went to hardware synths like Elektrons and then modular.

does it have an undo button? >,

Awesome video! I do have one thing I'm not clear on. If using the MIDI out on a track to sequence an external midi instrument, is the track still polyphonic via midi if the track layout is only assigned to one cv/gate output (mono layout). Thanks!

I almost bought this after seeing this awesome review but I just read that they weren’t going to be updating this again. I’m having seconds thoughts now... hmmm

New firmware OS 1.2 was just realeased..the Squarp guys seem pretty on it.

Im seriously up in the air about the hermod vs the elequencer? Hermod seems better for off the grid stuff, but eloquencer seems to have more features and to be getting regular updates.

So, you can modulate your LFO's with an LFO modulated by an LFO? SOLD!

9'40" Euclid was a pre Chrit Greek mathematician, may be it has to do with poly rythm ?

@SabertoothShaman

euclidian algorithm has something to do with finding the highest common divisor, in modular you can determine how many triggers happen within a designated amount of steps, thusly creating polyrhythms...i think

Good question! The tracker way is yet another way of sequencing! I think a Tracker for insane sequencing. Trig grid for fast fingertip control. Hermod for more freeform recording? They all cross over though. Whichever makes your heart tick...

No per step portamento amirite? That's like a half (or less than half) implemented feature... How often do you want glide over the whole pattern?? Glide is more for adding accents to sequences, not for making super deranged melodies...

Dude, your totorials are great, but your melodies just sound like quantized noise...could you just use simple melodies and simple musicals structures to keep the focus on the tutorial part? It is REALLY annoying to listen to that randomized-sounding melodies over and over again.
