Hey! I'm Kevin, but you can call me kevwyxin (kev-wix-in). I'm passionate about synths and sound design. I've recorded, mixed, and mastered my own full length album that's available on all major streaming services. I make music and gear related videos here on KZread. If you like synthesis, sound design, and more music related shenanigans then you should feel right at home. :)

Thanks for the support!

    Great Video! I love my KSP. It's the centerpiece of most of my latest videos. That being said, it's easy to get so excited about the synths/drums plugged into it that you forget that it's even there. I think that's a telltale of a fantastic instrument. My mind was blown when I got to the Mood part of this video. I can't wait to try it myself! Did you have to set any midi channels/CC's before it worked with the mood? I've added this one to my KSP playlist for reference later. Keep the great videos coming!

  • @kevwyxin

    I just had to set the global midi channel on the KSP to the mood’s midi channel then select which CC I wanted each knob on the KSP to control. Pretty easy setup!!

    You would need a TRS to split TS cable! 1/4” for both. That way you have a left and right Channel to go into your audio interface. Hosa makes solid ones and it should be easy to find.

    The right side jack is for controlling any chosen parameter, not just the tempo (there’s already a foot switch for that). You have to open the pedal to do that; this is in the manual, so maybe read your manual to find out how. 😊

    Bought mine secondhand and there’s no Unicorn manual online. My question is, is there a way to change the shape of the vibrato, so it becomes a long, consistent pitch bend at low speed, and not just a sharp “meh” every few seconds?

  • @darwinsaye
    @darwinsaye13 күн бұрын

    @@andrewpearson1903The abrupt shape of that modulation wave is a defining characteristic of the Univibe sound. The original Univibe’s vibrato setting sounds like that as well. If you were to smooth that wave out into an even sine wave, the chorus setting would lack the characteristic “throbbing”, and just sound more like a phase shifter. If you want a straight vibrato effect that has an even modulation, your best option would be to just buy a vibrato pedal like the Boss VB-2 or one of its clones.

    Hello, I've also got a question about how to change the MIDI channel on my CBA pedals. I can't get it to work with Ableton. I know that I have to unplug and plug in again while holding both switches and then send Program Change. But I don't know how that works in Ableton... I have 4 CBA pedals and I would like them on different MIDI channels. But I can't figure it out.. I really hope you could help me out.

  • @kevwyxin
    @kevwyxin6 ай бұрын

    Not sure how to send PC’s via Ableton off the top of my head, but if you can figure that part out then you should be able to change it just by holding the foot switches while it power ups. It will then “listen” for whatever channel the next PC is sent on. Then whatever channel the PC is sent on is what midi channel the pedal will be on. Hope this helps if you haven’t figured it out already!!
