Not just you, this sounds so bad I can't help wondering if it's someone from behringer doing this demo!

I generally like to go for a unified aesthetic but I’m not hardcore about it if it’s not going to work sometimes. Hence the Rung Divisions hanging out in this video!

I also noticed andrew switched plaits to a black faceplate, fitting the rack hes showcasing here :P Till now i have exclusively bought silver modules and i tried to keep it that way, but i dont want to miss out on all the amazing black plated modules haha (looking at acid rain Maestro and mimeophon)

yes it's really fun! our brains just love patterns so it's kinda neat that we can break that away from only ideas of notes or rhythms

thank you!

Glitches? Right? There's something funny about putting those two words together.

i’m not convinced, gonna need to hear more of them to be sure

Don't

@@greenvelvet okay, I won’t.

Surely the whole point of eurorack/modular is to see how much money you can spend to make random fart noises. Doing it cheaper is not in the right spirit 😂

Yep, much more useable than 0-coast or strega for my taste.

@@snorrevonflake I'm an improviser, I can't spend frustrating minutes and minutes jsut to try make the strega not sound like the strega.

@@DoctorRevers Modular = fart, Korg = music. Got it. I better start letting the 60 years of musicians that made legendary music with modular systems know they did it wrong. Wendy Carlos is going to be super bummed. Thank you for your insight!

@@Cryptic808 Musicians like Wendy Carlos abused the Moog for music because there was nothing else available at the time, they would have wanted modern complex keyboard synthesizers. Modular is for weird bleeps, bloops and farts. Guys like Subotnick realized that early. Nobody buys modular to make music.

@@snorrevonflake Ok. Think I got it now. modular = sad, lonely bros making random noisy farts for no audience. non-modular = willful listeners enjoying music. They should really stop making pitch quantizers and smooth sounding filters then. I'll call Hans Zimmer, Martin Gore , Vince Clarke and the rest of people currently using modular to make music for millions that they are doing it wrong. Appreciated!

​@@Cryptic808anything those guys have produced with modular fart boxes could have been made with standard synths. In fact vince clarke definitely did make all his best known music like that. Unless you can point me to some examples of stuff proving otherwise, happy to be educated, but I just don't see it. Apart from being nerdy fun for people with plenty of money, which is fine, I've never heard anything massively inspirational musically from a modular setup.

@@casinowilhelm oh, off the top of my head: Deadmau5, Trent Reznor, Hans Zimmer, Radiohead, Daft Punk, The Crystal Method, Alan Wilder, Martin Gore, the producers Flood and Daniel Miller, Bon Harris of Nitzer Ebb. Maybe you're right as a whole. Seems kind of sad that all of these people with walls of EuroRack use it just to make annoying blurps and frrrrts until the wife tells them to knock that Sh!t off because she has a headache instead of making enjoyable music for people. Oh well. Weird world.

Same lol

Love other sounds and sounds

yeah hdhfgdfg

I think it'd do fantastic. Run this at a slow tempo through a Microcosm and/or Habit- instant ambience

@@bricelory9534 I was personally looking at the subharmonicon as my first dip into modular (i want to focus more on ambient drones) but the labyrinth is definitely now a strong contender to be an accessory piece to that setup

​@@campfire2953 definitely - and another review shows this has a drone mode, so it doesn't have to be just short oscillator hits. Honestly, from what I can tell, both are quite cool and can do some very fascinating things. For me personally, I'm more interested in this sort of generative sequencing, but the Subharmonicon can do some special things itself.

Yea, i didnt want to criticize this video but yes i also see it rather on the slow, some weird bleeps every couple of seconds side.

The lack of attack stages could make it very static and limit it’s expressive range. I agree that the sequencer / corrupt function seems like it would work great for that type of music. But from what I can tell it’s either drone or quick attack. Maybe manually playing with the volume / filter while in drone would be a good compromise!
