Brilliant less is more. Just one synth, albeit one with a very deep sound architecture, very impressive feat. Bravo! Inspiring since the industry continually bombards us with unscrupulous more gear acquisition marketing tactics.

Gosh. An absolute MasterClass in Wavestate playing. And so musical too - bravo ! 👏👏

Excellent

That was awesome! Keep releasing music!

Sounds fantastic, great track and excellent sounds!

just beautiful....

Lovely to hear from you again... Still knocking out of the park with the Wavestate. Berlin School joy! 👍

If you really want to Hear the genius behind this sound - Listen on a powered pair of DT 770's or Truth B2031 Monitors. The whole house is shaking on the bassline & melody as the cats space out looking up at the stars outside.... Incredible.

Great! Thx for this video! It is very inspiring to me! 👍 I will try to implement some of it for myself!

Excellent! You are showing the true capabilities of this machine.

Are you serious? I have not listened yet BUT I am thinking Wavetrain is a nod to Love on a train? I have both soundbanks and bought the Wavestate all because of your work It is an amazing synth, it seems intimidating but once you understand the work flow, it's a really good synth. I have to get out of bed but it's too cold atm, I will I will, but yes your work is just simply amazing.

It all became something of a journey that today I still find fascinating. Thank you for bringing this to the layman with your banks, it truly is remarkable to make our own Tangerine Dreams...

Hi Ian.. Amazing sounds... I've been interested and loved these electronic sounds from the 80's Kraftwerk etc.. always wanted to learn to play... would it be hard for me to start on this machine.. would i need to go to music classes to learn to play..

Hi. The Wavestate is an amazing synth. However, if you plan to program your own patches from scratch, be aware that it is a slightly complex synth to program, there is a learning curve. A more beginner friendly, but still great, synth could be the Korg Minilogue or the Arturia Mini- or MicroFreak. But I love my Wavestate, as you might have guessed. You don’t need to go to music classes to learn to play. Just experiment, watch KZread tutorials, try to copy and learn from the artists you like. That said, some theory would expand your vocabulary and capabilities and might make playing more fun. Good luck :-)

It's fun seeing what you're doing. I wish Robert Rich would do one. Ever try some microtuning like 7/2 or 11/4?

👏👏👏… To understand: everything happens primarily in the sample and timing lanes, correct? The arpeggiato takes care of pitch patterns? Or do you have something in the pitch lane too?

@Waveformer

2 жыл бұрын

Yes, the sample and timing lanes are very central. The arpeggiator takes care of pitch, but pitch is also affected by the pitch lane (octaves and fifths above the note played by the arpeggiator) and by the step seq / shape lane (negative level modulates portamento time, effectively playing the last note from the arpeggiator one more time). The step seq/shape lane also does ratchets by retriggering the amp and filter envelopes.

Beautiful. Do you use wave sequencing here at all? Could the Modwave do a similar soundscape? Apart from only two layers? I'm considering both. I really like the dynamic timbre effect of wavetables.

@Waveformer

2 жыл бұрын

Yes, yes and yes 😁. Lots of wave sequences. The modwave could do something similar. The motion sequencing is pretty similar to the wave sequencing. You can use one of the motion sequencing lanes for pitch for one of the oscillators, so you can play somewhat different melodies on each oscillator in one layer, but it’s a little bit complex to set up. I have used it for some of my patches. The wavetable feature is really cool, especially with the modifiers, blend and morph features!
