- In the third Episode of the Sinfonion Series I show you everything about the chord generator. This video goes in depth and is so far the longest of this series. It goes through every detail of the four voiced Chords section of the Sinfonion.
One year later.. I'm still coming back to dive deeper into the Sinfonion to take full use of its features. What an incredible module.
morphagene was my fav module because it got me into modular. in the mean time i own lots of module and know many of them. without a shadow of a doubt is sinfonion the most impressive module i own and know. i still need to learn it and to get the full potential out of it ( which seems almost impossible ) but i always find my way here and watch these incrediable series! i am really blessed to own this tremendous module!
So it was you who bought up all the yellow backlit buttons : ) great module!
I'm finally understanding why people have described the Sinfonion as a Pandora's Box. This opens so many doors to the world of modular synthesis. BTW, this favorite part of the tutorial by far.
That patch in the very end is sooooooo gorgeous. If the previous videos hadn't already made me order, this would have done it!
so inspiring. vielen dank :)
Each video in this series makes me more eager to receive my sinfonion next week
Wow ... totally crazy! :)
Great yeah thanks this is exaclty what i needed another excuse to spend $1200😂. Joking aside this is incredible. I built my main modular system around a 4 voice polyphonic core and i write in traditional harmonies and modes so this is perfect
Hello Mattias,
maybe it is a noob question but i can't really find an answer in the manual :
i'm doing a bassline riff on the arpeggiator, and i want the chords follow the notes of the bassline, for exemple if the arpeggiator hits a G, the chord section makes a G chord int the defined scale, is it possible (without programming on the chord sequencer)?
For the moment my bassline is runing, but the chord stay the same all the riff long...
Also, this is ultra noob but is the main transpose input is doing quantified transposing (quantified by the selected scale)? According to the manual it seem to be a yes but i would have your confirmation.
Thanks a lot
This is a somewhat unusual approach. But you can try the following: map DEGREE to one of the CV inputs (say CV 1). Then patch the output of the arpeggiator (also) to CV1. And then select the MODE Major and Minor (depending on your scale) and turn the DEGREE and ROOT knobs in a position where they correctly match your current bass note.
I'd really like just the chords mode module paired with a sequencer of my choice for a lot lower price. I guess you really need a sequencer as well to get the best out of this?
Not neccessarily. Depends on your style of music. A sequencer gives more exact control over what's going on. Also interesting are random voltage generators, or "melody" generators like the Turing machine or MI Marbles.
harmonaig?
I just noticed at 9:48 - what is that Tic Tak module from Instruo?
It is a kind of quad trigger delay, but never made it into production. Yet...
Great introduction to the chords section.
Just wondering if tuning mode can use other notes than the one showed here?
If you watch the previous videos, you’ll see you can adjust the octaves so you can tune a VCO close to the range you wish to use it in.
@@MartinDoudoroffLLCLooks like I need to go review a video :D
There’s a link to a draft manual here, including a discussion of tuning mode: www.muffwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2962410#2962410
@@MartinDoudoroffLLC You're a living encyclopaedia! Thanks.
I am not a musician but what a complex and wonderful piece of gear. What do you need in addition to this to make a complete studio to create music?
Right in the center! You do not have to be musician!
Hello Mathias, i don't really understand why you removed my last comment.
I was just thinking about your last answer here, i remembered you told me that we can achieve 2nd, 4th and 6th with this module, by activating some other intervals, for example 2nd =11th, but it will create the 2nd on the higher octave, and not in the same octave range than the root note? If yes is there any way to create a "real" 2nd, i suppose by limiting the octave range? Thanks a lot, and respect for this promising module again.
Hello @@DerMannmitderMaschine , thanks a lot for your precise comment, that totally answer to my question.
