Mutable Instruments Frames Overview and Basics Tutorial
This video covers the basics of Frames and demonstrates a handful of uses for the module:
- 1:4 mult
- Attenuating mult
- 4 channel attenuator
- 4 channel mixer
- Crossfader
- Panner
- Sequencer
- Envelope
One quick note about the envelope that I forgot to mention in the video, it could actually be trigged by a single gate, given that you have a module to slew a square wave. Then it would act as a sawtooth, playing the envelope sequence forward like I show at the end of the video.

4 years later, still super handy!
Smooth, non-stressing, beautifully structured walkthrough! Creds!
I'm watching this like I totally follow everything he's referring to.
This is a really good Frames tutorial I have seen them all and this is the best. Thanks for posting!
I don't have frames, but now I understand it. Thanks!
One of the best Tutorials out there. Everything is clearly explained You should do a Tutorial for TidesV2

This is a good idea, and since I'm on Christmas vacation right now, I think I"ll put something together.
Great video thanks! My Frames arrives in a couple of days. Looking forward to it.
Thanks!! Extremely informative& useful!!
Thank you for an excellent explanation.
dope video! i never learned about frames but now i super want one!
Interesting tutorial will watch more. Great post.
Super well done!
Thanks for making this.
Thanks - I wanted to sell it in my early eurorack days. Now I found it in my box with modules I don´t use. I had no usecase but now I have :)

The funny thing is I just bought an Emblematic Catalyst earlier this week. It's basically a eurorack version of the Octatrack scene fader. Then it hit me how Frames was ahead of its time. Catalyst is basically frames between only 2 points 🤯, where you can change the point with the press of a button. Frames is underrated (and probably not well understood), but I think it's capable of a lot more than we've realized. It takes a lot of creativity though to think about how to effectively use it.

Excellent video! Only thing I still had to figure out was the delete button. ;)
good overview
Thank for the making the video, very informative. I just recently purchased a Frames clone (planks) and am trying to duplicate the cross fading between (2) audio sources you explain around 3:45 in your video. I am not getting the same results and just wanted to inquire if you made any adjustments to your interpolation curves as explained in the manual? Thanks!

I was the second owner of the copy of Frames shown in the video. I dont recall adjusting it, but it could have been set by the owner before me.
Have you tried parasites firmware for frames? Thx for the tutorial
Did I zone out and miss it or does this tutorial not even touch on "Fr Step"?
Is their any clicks when morphing?

haven't ever noticed any (which I can't say of all my modules)
I kind of wish it accepted triggers to advance frames, rather than just cv. Or if there was a way to sort of quantize the frames so a ramped lfo would produce rhythmically precise frame changes. Maybe there’s a way and I’m not seeing it.

that is one of the available modes in the Parasite firmware. I highly recomend installing it :) you get basic frames and you can switch to 4 completely different modes, quad sequencer, shift register, quad lfo or euclidean sequencer. Frames is a very underrated module

Doable in standard firmware. Select an existing frame and hit Add 5 times, turn mod attenuator all the way up, send pulses to mod to step through keyframes.

sooo boring lol
