Modular Techno Patch / Making music just on the few modules

❤️ Support me on Patreon - / ihor
In this video I carefully make a techno patch from scratch using only modular synth. Drums, bassline and master distortion. Modular patching is tricky at times, especially with a tiny 62hp case. I think I nailed it tho!

🌍 Hello World! My name is Ihor.
This is my channel where I share my experiences, ideas, reviews and tutorials related to Electronic Music Production. I focus mostly on Techno and House music. In my Studio on my Music Production Desk you will find a variety of different gear like: digital and analog synth, eurorack modular, drum machine, sampler, effect, mixer, guitar pedal, MIDI controller. Also software: DAW, Ableton, VST, plugins.
I am myself an engineer and I am quite obsessed with the Music Technology and Sound Design. I like making music without a computer. I like playing Electronic Music Live with my Minimal Dawless Setup. I love Eurorack Modular Techno and always keen to talk about the modular workflow.
I strongly believe that nothing can be better than a good Dawless Techno Jam!
I watched all the Techno Tutorials on KZread! (I think)
📺 Thanks for watching! And have fun!
✌️ Peace.

    Hi Ihor, i really enjoy your videos. You explain things in a very pedagogic way. To get a beat going and fiddle around with this, bassline and drums is not so difficult (it might not sound good, but thats another question..) The hard part for me is introducing variation. Imagine a 45-60 minutes set. one would need more options to change the sound during the set. Here is where i am struggling a bit to get this to work good and not get boring. Could you possibly make a video discussing this topic?

  • @IhorMedia

    @IhorMedia

    2 жыл бұрын

    Mimetic's useful feature is that it can randomise and save CV values on step basis. So that it is created randomly, but preserved and loops over and over again. Which is my desired repetitiveness! You can get similar results from Pam's for example. There is randomly shaped wave and Loop that makes a seed from that random wave. So you keep the repetitiveness and not complete randomness.

    I had a skiff that had PNW, BIA, and MD in it (along with a couple other things) and I just couldn't get along with MD as a sequencer. I would always just go back to having Pam do it. I asked the NE guys about it and they said, "Well, MD isn't a melodic sequencer, its a CV sequencer" and I get that but...yeah. I just couldn't deal with the pressing the hard metal knob to (attempt to) change notes thing.

    Well, MD might not be "melodic to the scale", unless you quantise the CV with a quantiser of some sort. However I am down with not quantised stuff. Like in this exact video. I didn't care about scale. I just auditioned and let my brain decide if it sounds good or not. And this is where MD stands out. It gives results out of any scale. Some unexpected and experimental results. And I am totally down with this!
