Excellent dramatic hand acting. Zero wasted movement, you really get right to the emotion of it.

I'm relatively new to Eurorack and I've been studying it pretty rigorously for a few weeks now, and I feel that the Mutable Instruments modules are all kind of cryptic on the surface regarding how they work and what they do. This video broke this module straight down to its fundamental functions in an incredibly understandable way. YT needs more tutorials like this that don't clutter things with lots of unexplained simultaneous patching.

This is the best, and most informative demonstration of Clouds i've seen! Thanks!

Returned to this video after watching it a couple of years ago, as a prelude to a Clouds session this afternoon and realised how much I miss your module demos.

Beautiful atmospheric sound at the beginning. And all the other incredible, unreal sounds. So enveloping and enjoyable. Thank you.

You are really good at explaining complex modules. This is the first time I feel like I understand a mutable module!

Thank you so much for this review. Your review style is perfect for me. I’m a dumb guitarist and a little slow on the uptake but this review gave me the bravery to approach the module and reaffirmed that I needed this in my rack. Thanks man!

Some gorgeous tones in this! Great job as always Alex :)

You're the one to simply explain the things.Thank you Alex.

What a brilliant review. Outstanding and massively fun. Thank you!

Awesome! The hands are back again. The best tutorial so far on Clouds, this has sold me on the module.

Great tutorial, please make this series weekly :3

Another thing I bought after watching one of your demos! Keep'm coming.

Best explanation of clouds i've seen so far!!!!!! Thanks a million

I love your passion for this.

It's the 3rd time I am watching this and the first description still gave me chills

This tutorial is comprehensive and clear somehow art. thanks so much for sharing

I finally got to know what this module does! Thank you for your hands on demonstration!

What a fine presentation of amazing module! Thank you.

Thank you for reminding me what an awesome module I have and what great potential it contains within. I have a 5U version and out of habit just would freeze a sound / add feedback or reverb and use that as a pad tone and that's about it. That's a complete insult to the device and you've reminded me that I need to spend more time exploring and playing it in different ways. Great demo!

Nice Job Alex. Exceptional module, on my to-get list this year.

Incredibly helpful to really understand how to use this thing!

...and best voice next to Dan Worrall ...only modular videos i can watch with my girlfriend also enjoying it ;) Thanks Alex

Amazing tutorial. Thank you Alex!

best reviewer ever :) i love the voice and the expression how he deal with modules would really love to make once a session together :)

Hi ! I really love the FM videos. A lot of info. This is the the only one video that explain Clouds. All others are tweak fans. Thank you!!!! Man: your voice is very good. I like to hear it!

Great vid for a great module. Thx!

Another great tutorial. I hate reading manuals so now I am going back to play on my Clouds. Thanks

When I started with Modular I got a clouds. A year later I got rid of it. 2 years later I have got back my original clouds (and Braids) Point being, these are absolute classics.

The best explanation! After seeing this vidio I relized that I was using only 10% of my Clouds :)

The granular stuff sounds incredible. I was considering getting Make Noise Morphagene since some people on a forum were saying it's more powerful/has the most potential, but after watching this video, Clouds really clicked with me. I LOVE granular freakiness.

Clouds is one of my favorite modules in VCV Rack. All Audibles stuff is amazing and weird in the best way.

thank you for the fun moments!

This is getting dangerously expensive for me...

I've been messing with a Novation Peak through the Softube version of Mutable Clouds it's impressive.

I love this explanation, I love your voice, great video!

Great demo using your voice to get me in to it!!

this module is a freak of nature

If you're a Reason user the Polar Rack Extension does a lot of this stuff - not everything but some of the cooler features + pitch shifting.

Brilliant work!

Best review ....just got it and to come here to learn

Easily one of the greatest eurorack modules of all time IMO. Insanely inspiring and musical. The Mutable guy is a genius.

Just saw this after watching a demo of Mystic Circuits Vert, and that would be wicked paired with this.

Superb video, i love my clouds.

The thing is amazing nuff said!

What a great tutorial. Why don't eurorack vendors do more comprehensive manuals?? The one for Clouds is minimal to the point it omits really basic stuff, never mind the more wacky examples. I'm new to eurorack and all the units I own have sketchy manuals or little more than a description on the website! This video is going to be incredibly helpful.

SO SO SICK!

Granular is magical!

Super helpful. thanks hero .

The entire Clouds-thingemie didn't do anything for me, until I saw your latest video, in which you describe your live performace system where you use the output of a Radio Music as input for Clouds, and trigger it from your Circadian Rythm. I'm sold now :)

Can you use this on its own? So if I just bought that module do I need the rest to make it work? I know I'd need a powered rack but wanted just this to start out with and expand later on.

wonderful video.

So glad that there are other people in the World tbat use words like 'twizzle' 'mundge' and 'squonky' I thought it was just me and the missus!

You bloody freak ... fantastic explanation!

in which I invent the new word revoltage.

This thing is so fucking cool. Love the granular synthesis aspect of it.

Holy shit! I want this thing

What is the closest plug in that emulates clouds? Was thinking about making an instrument rack in live w a granulator/reverb and neatly coloring the knobs red white and blue...lol.

do u get also stations onto the nomad or just all kind of noises, and how long is your antenna?

Well just after some time I wanted to have fun with Clouds again and after lately try to check the parasite mode with 5 sec pressing the B and to get back again, the module modulates nothing anymore, is there a reset procedure or is it better to paly on the firmware again ?, I ll try that . ...

What settings should be used to get reverb only with the sound not being delayed by the buffer?

super explanation:))

Does anyone know if we can switch the firmware as shown here at the end of this video, with the plug-in version of this module?

this thing sounds wicked. would love to put some sounds through it

good stuff!

holy fuck i want one so bad! your videos are phenomenal. loved the quote at the end!!!

Hello mylarm, Love the review, as usual. I have a question though. How do you get clouds to sound so high-res/high-quality compared to mine? My audio quality of clouds sucks when I got it recorded in ableton. Dunno, perhaps it's my recording-setup, perhaps it's my output module (got left and right outputs of clouds to both inputs A and B of MN rosie and got the crossfader in-between those two, and then stereo out to my AI (focusrite USB). Basically, I'm just curious about how you recorded the sound of this great demo. cheers, Thomas

@mylarmelodies

+Thomas Vogt Cheers! When you say 'sucks', sucks exactly how? This is recorded with modular going into an Expert Sleepers ES6 (the Modular>ADAT module), then into a Universal Audio Apollo via optical. But you should still be able to get nice sounding recordings with what you've got? As long as it's reasonably cranked down so that it's coming into the interface at a level the interface is comfortable with, it should be OK? Is it sounding good in the headphones out of the Rosie but not in the monitored audio off the interface?

2:45 pure evil

Boss job.

Dam I`m going modular.

Sweet

Which model of Clouds has the colorful knobs and jacks as this one does-I wanna buy it 😃

mylarmelodies is too adorable :3 such an entertaining demo as always.
