I can't believe how many times I've gone back to this video. The piano sounds so beautiful through Beads! I just had to buy it :)

Glad to see Emilie eventually decided to keep the reverb :)

Bravo, Tom, pour cette belle exploration sonore. Et une formidable introduction de ce nouveau module de Mutable.

Thank you for this wonderful demonstration. And by the way: on the leaves is a moving, great and beautifully sad song!

Excellent demo! Great music too!

That is amazing! My clouds died as soon as my morphegene arrived. So i can’t wait to get beads, and finally combine the match made in heaven!

Great explanation! Love it!

thats was a very nice demo, thank you!

Sounds great!

Got mine today, love it!

This thing producing very rich sounds

I've been contemplating taking my 4u 104hp down to a 4u 62hp but was worried about a lack of modulation options after I stuff my morphagene and clouds (....or beads...) into it this of course reminds me that both of these modules are still stellar even prior to any modulation

Beads has built in random modulation as well don't forget 🥦

Great one

Thanks Tom.

what an awesome loop also

I found this honestly gorgeous. All of it. Also this pairing jesus christ. Like two magnets finding each other.

I know. Morphagene is my dream module, but I need to build my foundations first. Started with Frames, Stages, Marbles, Blinds, and Links, with external Minibrute 2S and 0-Coast. Next is Beads and 1010 Bitbox Mk2. After that, Rings, Morphagene, and 4MS Ensemble Oscillator. Beads and Morphagene are both just amazing.

Oh man this looks so awesome and inspirational! Lovely sounds as well! ... I never really got to be friends with Clouds, but this feels like it fixes most of my issues with it!

Great exploration Tom. This sounds great.

Thanks! This is the way to make a demo.

Sounds beautiful!

This is so great! I've been wanting to learn modular synth and I don't see many itty bitty racks.

This is lovely! Really great sounds.

Thanks... This really shows the beautiful possibilities.

Fantastic. Sound quality and recording time was my only gripe with clouds. Both being upgraded is great. That verb sounds awesome hopefully a bt less noisy than the last time. Real cool idea on the random attenuverters too. Instant buy.

I know Im not alone when I say this, Ive been eagerly waiting for the day I get on youtube and see a new Emilie Gillet module in my feed....and and find out that its the revamp of "Clouds"!

Le son est limpide, clair et précis. J'attendais une réédition avec envie et impatience. L'univers mutable est tellement inspirant quand on à ces modules.... Merci pour ta vidéo. Merci à Émilie...

Incredibly beautiful demo!

Terrific!

oooooo. bought immediately to replace my monsoon in my tiny nebulae pico case. so handy to have modulation, random source and attenuation there, will make my backpack rack so much more playable. Thanks for sharing your video and demonstration.

great work tom! this module definitely has my attention.

Just noticed that the attenuators actually do adjust the internal modulation when nothing is patched into the cv inputs… missed that in the documentation 🤩

Hi Tom, beautiful demo! Guess we are all mindblowed about finally meet Beads lol.

Nice! What cases are you using? (the wooden end cheek ones I mean)

Happy to see that it's not a totally different module but a thorough yet subtle rework of Clouds. This as Clouds have been so sought after and an important part of many racks and our eurorack history, and even though you can get Clouds clones it's nice to be able to buy a real MI product and in this way support Emilie for her great work. Things like the randomization is really cool and those sound quality selections seems much better, and to me it sounds in general like a sonically large improvement over Clouds. Am I right here?

Sounds Leagues better than Clouds. Ive tried Clouds in 3 versions & only rarely got something interesting out. But this one Emilie outdid herself

@richnewman

Clouds is sublime. This sounds great, too, but in a cleaner pristine sort of way. I ordered Beads, but not selling my original MI Clouds any time soon. I'm actually looking forward to patching them together.

It is really a nice sounding demo. But tbo. I can not really evaluate what the Beads is doing, because of the unknown, unheard and complex source sounds. I would like to hear a pure saw wave (easiest playing as you can) manipulated with Beads and all it's possibilities. So in this current stage the demo video doesn't help me, sorry. :-/

I understand, but I just doing music not technical specs

Seems a funny decision that this is designed to be more self-sufficient compared to Clouds. I guess kids don't like their modular to be too modular anymore.

I already dared to hope that the age of rings into cloud video would soon come to an end ...

the pitch sounds way better than the old clouds version...

I'm very surprised to see that the highest quality is still just 16 bit, 48khz. Especially for something intended to time stretch and granulate sounds, I would really hope for a higher sample rate, and I'm generally very hesitant to run a sexy all-analog audio signal through a 16 bit processor. I mean, I get that it must be an artistic decision, but a higher quality ADC was one of my main hopes from the new model. I mean, obviously still have to get one, but it may not be an easy choice between Beads, Morphagene or Arbhar.
