- This a little jam with the Behringer System 100 Eurorack modules (clones of the Roland System 100 m). I really like the sound of this system, particularly the saw wave. I did not like the filter at first, but it has grown on me over time. Thedse modules are a great way to get into Eurorack without spending too much.
Other mdules used in this jam: Erica Synths Pico SEQ, Eirca Synths pico DRUM2, Mutable Instruments Clouds DIY Clone, Erica Synths Pico DSP.
The Erica Synths is doing all the work. I love Erica Synths so much
Half the modules in this patch are Erica Synths. From the double sequencer to drums, delay, lfo and mixer. They are indeed doing a lot of work! ES is my favorite synth brand by far
@@JPblasc I first saw Erica Synths Fusion Modules about 1 year ago, and I have been working overtime, and coming up with plans to just buy one of them, haha. Even just one Erica Synths Fusion VCO v2. I've been looking at the back side of the module PCB because I'm an electrical DIY kind of guy, and it's too hectic for me, about 18 amplifiers on the module, with 3 bridge brigade delays, no wonder they get that entirely uncompromising sound.
I apologise and should mention that this was good work that you did. Love the track.
@@michaelcuneo9746 yeah, I was just playing with my VCO2 and its pure joy, an exploration playground that continues to create new sounds even after 6 months of use.
@@michaelcuneo9746 thanks ! I hopre you get your erica synths fusion module soon!
Sounds beautiful 😊
@@iloveACID thank you!!! :D
@@JPblasc 👍💯
huge sound for such a compact set up, great job!
Thank you very much!! The bass really helps beef up the sound.
I don’t understand how one of the major sellers for these modules like sweetwater or reverb who like to make videos showing off the hardware hasn’t collected a massive amount of them and set them up to be a eurorack clone of Hans zimmers Roland modular. Dude has dozens and dozens of each module like 40-80 of each thing if I recall. It would be insane to hear a eurorack version of this synth. Play some of the pieces he’s made with it.
Cool 😎👍. Dual 110 - I've not seen that before but it makes sense to save space.
Thanks! Yeah, the 110s are very space efficient, I like that all their inputs have an attenuator
Excellent module, I have 2 as well but the main thing as you can hear is they sound fantastic! 1 x 110 and 1 x 140 a small psu and case 36HP synth that is crazy
@@Iglobalhead I like how smooth they can sound compared to other modules.
Great Jam, very nice sounds and also a clever configuration. I'm starting in the modular and those behringer clones are really good and cheap.
Congrats!
Thank you very much! Yeah, the behringer modules are a great way in without sacrificing sound quality! I hope you have a nice modular journey!
The 100 series is by far the best investment I’ve ever made, have a Strega but nothing else in that series, I have a chaos, sounds as good as the $500 morpheagene, have the Ensemble and Zoia, between the two handles polyphony just fine. It’s a great way to test something new without buying the series. The Strega is an excellent noise oscillator with the 100 next, the 115! Best deal for the money!and they both sound fantastic!
Very interesting performance! 😃
Thanks!
Love the 5 note progression and the reverb actually sounds spacey.
Thanks a lot!
@cat and biscuit 😂
I actually reverberate the more I vibrate, I just sometimes need Martin Duffy to see a pulsing yer know
Dude, I'm so inspired. I have been dithering about euro-rack because of sticker shock. I looked up that little case, and ordered one immediately. Nice jam, I hope I can create something half as cool. Well done you 👍
Excellent! I hope you enjoy your case a lot and create things twice as cool! Thanks for watching!
The NiftyCASE was my starting point last January. You can do A LOT in that 84hp. Just keep the depth and power cable routing in mind, as it gets tight to build in once it's mostly full.
Nifty case,nifty case,,so good that I bought four,,nifty so addictive,,I think I need one more....great vid ....
Thanks! You should get another 4!
The 100 series is the way to go, get every module, then test with other manufacturers, I almost always end up purchasing another Beringer module!
I'm really glad I found this 100 series, I'm only a hobbyist so the price matters. Question, do you know what module that is on the far right?
@@Heavycap Erica Synths Pico mixer. I believe it's on par with the Moog CP3 mixer so past the 3 oclock position you get a bit more grit.
Cool jam and great sounds. They are certainly tempting!
Thanks! These modules are great, everyone should have them :D!
I love my 110 module. I have others in the system too that are definitely useful and nice. The saw wave and filter are really nice. It can get brassy and fizzy.
Nice patch!
I love the saw wave as well. It is a lot broghter than my erica synths vcos, which I like. Thanks for watching!
sounds great!
Thanks a lot!! I Like the system 100 more every day
Super nice! Really enjoyed this piece. Looks like a fun little stand-alone case to play.
Thank you! I enjoyed this one as well. The small case is great. I like to pick modules, put them in, make a song with them, and then repeat the process with different modules. It helps me find new ways of creating sounds with a handful of options!
Very cool. I just built the whole system , really like your sounds you did with it.
Thanks! What modules do you have in your system!?
very great module !
It is great indeed!
So good I subscribed. Well done
Great! I'm glad you liked it!
Great jam and great rig, inspiring the sounds you're getting! Looking to get into modular and i've been eyeing up the Niftycase. Just tryin to figure what modules i'd need for a little techno machine. But i think you seem to have it covered with what you have. 👍🏻
This sounds amazing!
Thanks!! :D
This is the best Behringer System 100 jams i saw.. I also have Behringer System 100 modules and the VCA. The VCA is AC-coupled tho but overdrives very nicely. The 3 inputs and CV inputs really want one to be experimental because of the AC coupling (no unipolar signals like envelopes cant be processed). I would love to have the original, one day..
Hey, Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked it. I like the 3 input 3 cv approach to many of the modules of the system 100 (like VCO, filter, VCA), though my modules only have 2 cv inputs. Do you recommend to buy the VCA? The original system is a dream!
@@JPblasc well i honestly wouldnt have bought It if i would have known about the AC coupling. Its rather inconvenient sometimes when some signals are DC-coupled.. but it has a unique workflow so It really depends on your liking.
amazing!!!! I will buy this case in some days, very nice system u make it with nifty case.
Thanks!!
awesome
Thanks!!
very nice
Thanks!!
Always wanted to make a modular setup but don't have the capacity to do so rn. Your setup is beutiful!
Thank you!! I hope you can have a modular setup soon!
@@JPblasc I hope so too.
Very cool - mine arrives next week...
Thanks! Good luck with yours!!
@@JPblasc TKS - all OK - fighting with the LFO...
This is so good
Thank you very much!!
Cool setup, sounds good. I just got some of those behringer modules.
Thanks a lot! Which modules did you get? I have enjoyed mine a lot
I like when your hand appears and it becomes apparent that it the synth is about a quarter of the size I thought it was. 😆
I had never thought of that!! 😁😁😅
Excellent
Thank you!
Great!
Thank you!! Cheers!
Nice work
Thank you very much!
Quality !! 😎
Thank you!!
Nice sounds and i like the sequence.
Thanks! I've had the pico sequencers for a long time and I never use them (they have steep learning curve). But today I see they are great for performing sequences
@@JPblasc sometimes you get things you are just not ready for yet. But when the day comes, you will be happy that you got it.
@@positivebacteriaculture I completely agree with this.
Yeah!! Really nice!!
Thank you!! Cheers!
Nice setup
Thanks!
Nice one! 👌
Thanks!!
that's killer!
Thanks a lot, I'm glad you liked it!!
Awesome!
Sounds fantastic… $2K skiff getting the job done.
Very similar setup that I’m working on.
Thanks a lot! The skiff has it's limitations, but that's part of the fun :D
@@JPblasc
Great performance..
What are the limitations of the skiff you mentioned ?
Is the depth sufficient for Doepfer modules ?
@@HauptmanNase thanks! I think I referred to the small size of the case. I had to select the modules carefully
Pretty nifty
that is the case
Excellent... Small rack - > Big Sound !
Hey....thanks for listening--->I really appreciate it !
Very nice patch, what Eirca Synth module is that on the far left?
Thank you! It is an SEQ module.
Oh man this is just fabulous. Well done. Really love it. Have my case already, but on the fence now. Somethings holding me back getting modules. Patching really is something that is scary. Some people are natural at learning complex stuff. CZcams really does have a lack of good *true* beginner guides. Most seem already aimed at people who are NOT beginners and know stuff already.
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it! Do you have any non modular synths? If you do, you can imagine patching as as trying to reconstruct a regular synth with its indivudual pieces, and then move on from there
@@JPblasc I have a Crave and Neutron, but the connections confuse me. Is this something you know what the effect will be or do people just plug it in and have no idea? Both my semi-mods are fab, but how can you learn fully about modular when most of semi-mods are already pre-wired. It's the learning about how to link a vco -> envelope -> effects -> vca etc. Most of the hard stuff has been done with semi's. Don't get me wrong, they're are good learning tools but surely having a proper modular system is the only true way to learn how they work. Keep up the fab work!
@@t3chnod3lic you are right, a fully modular system forces you to make connections and is better for learning. With my semi-modulars I hardly ever make new connections aside from the existing ones. With the crave and neutron I like to patch de envelope out to the lfo CV. This way the rate of the lfo increases every time I play a note. And yeah, when making connections I imagine what is the result I want and then figure out how to patch it. Making random patches does not lead to good sounds most of the time.

Nice jam! Were all of the sounds and effects coming from that one little rack?
Thanks! All sound come from this little rack indeed!
Could have heard lots more of that, not overcrowded, peaceful…. Thanks!
@@scottmartin356 I'm glad you liked, thanks for watching!
Amazing sound! Sounds better than standalone systems like 2600.
Thanks. Yeah, it also has more funcionality, like a sequencer, two filters, efects, percussions..
😮😮😮😮❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
😁😁😁
this sounds fantastic, I've just got into modular because of Behringer system 100, so I've got all the modules apart from the sample and hold, what else are you using? take care and keep doing what you are doing 🙂
Thank you very much!!!. The system 100 is fantastic, I hope enjoy it a lot. Are you liking it?. I am using modules from erica synths: 2x pico sequencer (to sequence the bass and melody), black modulador (as an lfo), pico drum, pico dsp (as a delay), and clouds diy (as reverb). Take care as well!!
@@JPblasc I'm enjoying the possibilities but not so much the steep learning curve mobular has, always wanted a system 100 because of the Human League's first 2 albums. You and Tim Shoebridge kinda got me to spend the money, just ordered the ring mod before prices go through the roof, so I've a full system now. Thanks for taking the time to reply I'll look into the other modules you are using. Btw I'm new to modular 🙂
@@chrs1968modular has a steep learning curve indeed, but it's well worth it. I have not yet felt a lack of new paths to explore, which is fantastic. I think a delay module can greatly enhance your system 100's output. I wish you luck on your modular explorations!!
Give me a year or 2 and I'll post what I can do, my system might be bigger by then but my talent is the thing I need to grow in reality, I admire you people that post videos knowing full well some people may put you down 🙂. I've just watched 2 hours of modular and not one video made me want to plug in some patch cables, you and Tim Shoebridge got me here hopefully I'll repay when I get it together in my head 🙂
@@chrs1968 I spent many years showing my music to no one but myself (which is perfectly fine, music can be a introspective journey, and most of mine will remain unshared). Sharing my music has breathed new life into it, and inspiring others (even if it just a handfull of people) gives it a new purpose. I have found the youtube community to be very receptive (I exprcted many hater comments, but there have been only a couple of them so far). Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It makes me very happy to have inspired you in a similar manner as tom shoebridge, since he has inspired me a lot over the past years. I hope you enjoy your system 100!!
Absolutely awesome!!! What module do you use for the drums?
Thank you very much!!! It is an Erica Synths Pico Drum 2 and Pico DSP for a bit of delay
Great jam! I didn't know there was a mini Clouds in that form factor. Does it support parasite 2.0 with Oliverb and Resonestor as well?
Thanks! I do not know about parasite 2.0, sorry :/
I believe that's the Instruo clouds design. Yes it supports parasites. Ive had 3 versions of clouds, and my favorite by far is antumbra. I've never had this version tho.
this sounds beautiful. I don’t understand how the sound is made here but I’m like, wow. is it easy to play a different sequence? do you change the notes by turning the knobs? is there an algorhythm choosing the notes or are they entered manually? I’m at a loss here.
ok wait, I see something in that ‘clouds’ module that says pitch… but there’s only one?
I'm glad you liked it. There are two Erica Synths "pico Seq" modules that create the note sequences. I program the sequences manually by turning knobs. When performing, i control the sequence length to insert subsequent notes. One of these modules is playing in and "up down" pattern and the other plays with a random pattern (that is, choosing at random which of the predefined notes plays at each step). I hope this helps! Thanks for listening!
Those complex changing melodies can't just be coming out of the 2x 3hp sequencers ... or can they?
They can! I change the sequence length and usea random steps to create the chsnging melodies
Great seeing beautiful music being made using these systems. How long have you been making music? You’ve got serious talent friend.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I've played the piano for overlay 25 years (I started at age 5). I have played synths for 5 years and started with modular a year ago
@@JPblasc thank you for the reply. My opinion is if anyone has a chance at making decent money creating dark ambient/electronic music these days, it would be you. Keep it up.
@@Subtronik thanks a lot. I hope the day comes when I can live off my music. I have a few projects now and then, mostly for nature documentaries. Meanwhile I will continue making music for the pleasure of doing so!
I see you have a lot of compact modules.. makes sense. This 104HP Moog case I am plannign to buy gets filled up fast with these system 100 modules. Mabye I should pass on the 150 and go for slimmer parts later.
Good idea. Space is vital
How did you accomplish the drum ratcheting?
Hi! The pico drum goes through an Erica Synths pico Dsp, in delay mode!
@@JPblasc Nice! was wondering if you might have been using the Clouds DIY Parasites looping delay
What are you using for the drums? I think I'm hearing like 3 instruments going.. but only see 2 voices :)
For drums I used the Erica Synths Pico DRUM2 with Pico DSP as a delay :)
@@JPblasc Sweet I'll have to check out the pico DSP>
Okay I'm going to sound not stupid, I have
I never understood this comment, thanks for listening!
Sounds really good. I am wanting to purchase a few of these system 100 modules. What are you using for bass? Or is one of the voices?
I do recommend these modules, $100 for a vco+filter+vca is an unbeatable price, and they sound great. Bass is one the 110 modules and melody is the other. Thanks for listening!
@@JPblasc Wow impressive that you get such gerat sound with 2 instruments using only two vco! I was gonna start with 112, 121, 130, 140, 150 and 173. The 110 isn't available anywhere that I can find otherwise I would of probably just got two of those instead of the 112, 121,130.. since it takes up less space in rack. I gues those modules should be enough for me toi get started. I think Imight add Maths next since everyone gets that one.
@@jenniferw8963 Thanks for your kind words! 110 Is a practical module, but with 112 + 121+ 130 you get a bit more (like oscillator sync, modulation inputs, fixed HPF, linear + exponential VCA)! The 140 module is essential. 150 I have never used, but it looks great for more complex modulation and sound shaping. The 173 seems a bit too large for what it does (2hp makes some inexpensive passive multiples that might be a better option). I would maybe sacrifice the 173 and look for a delay module (but thats just me, I love effects). It will be a super complete system!
@@jenniferw8963 I really recommend the ERica Synths Pico DSP for effects. It is high quality and takes little space.
@@JPblasc can I just route the sound into a mixing board and add delay and reverb in software or a standard effects unit that isnt' eurorack? Or should I get an effects unit that is eurorack? I was thinking about geting ES-9 and routing to VCV Rack for effects like clouds, plateu etc.
How much did the diy clouds cost ya? I wouldnt' mind making one myself if I could get it for say $150.
It cost me $150, but I bought it used, so I don't know the real price.
I sold my Michigan Synth Works Monsoon (Clouds clone) on Reverb for $150 a few weeks ago so you should be able to get one in that range.
@@timwendt1935 Also, going to try using MPC one for drums and sequencing the module with 8 channels of cv gates. Should be fun.
Awesome sound.
Although, personally, still wouldn't buy behringer.
Thanks! What wouldn't you buy from them? Is it the built quality, or the intelectual property ripoff?
