Finally, Andrew is making his own WEIRD GEAR
It's honestly surreal that you have your own module now!
The whole time in development I was like AAAAAAAAA and it seems like that is simply not going to stop
@@andrewhuang You are on an absolutely wild ride and I'm all here to follow it! Every upload is a surprise and I'm always excited to guess what it's gonna be next
@@andrewhuang that's why you look exhausted/tired on your latest videos :)
honestly im surprised he didnt do this years ago, he's the module goat
That reverb put me in another plane of existence
m a s s i v e 😫👌
I came to the comments to say this lol
I melted into The bed listening to him turn The knob 😅
it made you a .... ghost?
@@augustgames6502 boo
Been using Ghost is all my patches since I got it. Super module, congrats Andrew.
this one module is the whole career for ambient musicians
if you got the money to pay off regional DJ's & program directors, then you can make a hundred top chart hits in twenty minutes.
I don't even know what this comment means.. It's a decent module. It's the kitchen sink approach. I wouldn't say it's a game changer for ambient musicians at all though.
as an ambient musician, AGREED!!! Too bad modular isn't at all feasible in brazil :
@@Nicole-pt4bxas a non-musician, why is modular not feasible in Brazil?
@@walterroux291 Another non-brazilian, but I have a feeling it's the economic situation, don't think modular is affordable for the great majority of people
I need a series where Rob Scallon builds his own modular rig with Andrew's guidance and then he explains it to us guitar schlubs...
I'm not actually sure - but pretty sure - you've seen the handful of recent videos where they've done this recently together? :).
If you break modular into different pieces its simpler to understand. Generally a source signal being sent to various places and having effects or changes applied, then LFO's (invisible hands) tweak the knobs of those changes ever so slowly to produce movement, then they're routed out for you to hear :)
They already did something similar, I remember seeing it.
@@Daphoid yupp, I need more!
@@mapu1 yup that's why I mentioned it, loved that vid
Rhett Shull has a video about his modular rig for guitar
Perfect time for Halloweeeenn
We honestly didn’t even plan it that way hahaha
@@andrewhuang seriously?! 😆
Perfecto!
Hell yea
I feel like this is an amazing venture for you! It feels natural that this path is where you've gone, and I'm so excited to see this come to fruition!!
Love this, love you, love you all in the community!!!
Aw thanks yes much love!
GLORIOUS. I am dying to see what the future looks like with Huang hardware.
Oh wow thank you for the encouragement, it’s a really exciting frontier for me
the three levels of distortion on this module are just beautiful! sounds so crunchy and nice.. Great job Andrew
Andrew's just getting more and more innovative
💖💖
The workflow of this seems really good! Like, I already have reverb, delay, compressor, filter and distortion modules in my setup, but having them all in one unit and being able to press a button to toggle between routings speeds things up so much -- vs using half of your synth to achieve similar results. This is a great option for smaller systems and appreciate that's how you pitched it!
Yesss that was totally one of the main aims - save a bunch of space in folks’ racks!
Really loved that outro. The module sounds amazing, and you don't undersell it or oversell it. Gave us a great demo and some practical advice on who its for and how it would fit in a workflow. So awesome to see companies working with creatives (especially you!) who are the end users and know what end users want and what makes their lives easier. Great video man!
Thank you for feedback and encouragement!
Been watching you for years since I started creating music. I can’t believe that I’ll actually get to use gear designed by you now :)
🙏 warms my heart!
Still watching the vid: seems really neat so far. Seems like you maximized it’s uses with the size of the module, there’s a lot to mess with which is of course great!
I always thought you’d make a module someday
I like how all fx and available at once. And you can choose the order of witch in the signal gits first. Def getting this one
The ambient section was incredible!!
I find this to be a really beautiful module - I think it'd be a star, especially for many small/starter modular set ups. I love the nature of the saturation on the in-gain, especially in combination with distortion - it has a nice tape warmth. I really like this! And it might be something I find I really want for my first set up if I ever am able to get into modular. The ability to easily change the chain is really cool, and I think makes this especially versatile.
Very well done!
so cool to see you make music with hardware that you created
It’s a trip!!
Coming from a channel partially built up of nerding out about cool gear, it's pretty awesome to see Andrew nerding out about his OWN gear.
One thing I am SOOOOO happy to see is that this module is unique in its sound, workflow, and character. Doesn’t really sound like anything else out there, beautiful work!!!
Of all the musicians out there who could be making hardware, Andrew is the one I want to see doing it. Totally psyched for this!
Officially a ghost producer now
Sweet you have come so far from space. ❤️💙❤️💙
Congratulations. That thing sounds beautiful!
Prerodered it the moment it was announced and have been loving it ever since I finally got it in my hands. Incredible module, it's exactly what I wanted in an FX/Final out module.
Hit me name above ☝️☝️☝️
Something special for you 🎊🎉🎉.
You pretty much have a the ingredients of a wicked full tune from around 14 to 15 odd minutes. Love it. And then straight into such gorgeous crisp and clear ambient-esque soundscapes. You tube put this vid in my basic news feed, so I'm glad to have found your channel. Looking forward to catching up on your content.
nice
Justs bought! You are truly awesome, thanks a lot for everything. The reverb is just absurd ❤
Ah thank you! Hope it brings a lot to your setup!
Got mine today. lovely device Andrew.
Hope you enjoy it for a long time!
This is a really cool module, and that was some sick editing. Great work!!
Andrew this is awesome!! Congrats on your first hardware release!
Just finished the whole video. I really like that you labeled the alternate functions right on the module. That should be the hallmark of any and all of your Eurorack modules. Outstanding. The features seem well thought out.
Also, don't worry as much about shilling. You put work into this and it's good. I expect to see another video using it as an effect then performing with it. Take a bow or a victory lap with it. You've earned it.
Seeing your videos makes me so inspired and hyped up to make music! I wish I had modular synths at home too.
AAHHH, That filter knob in the middle, mama miaa! perfect the way you've setup the filter, to the left lp, to the right hp, just intuitive, RIGHT!
Congrats on the drop man, exciting times ahead!
This sounds wicked. Very versatile. Great sounding distortion/verb.
That’s one densely packed feature set. Congrats, Andrew.
The one knob compressor is so perfect for me. I just don’t like to twiddle with ratios and attack/release. So that you already took care of a good relation between everything is awesome.
WHY DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS THING omg this is heaven
hyped! Maybe this will be what finally gets me to delve into modular! so much packed into such a tiny module.
And hey if you've got some semi modular already (say moog mother 32), Moog just announced some small cases with power (lots of options here too).
“All that from these random bleep bloops” 😂 so cool Andrew - congrats!
Andrew I just wanna say that my three favorite kinds of videos you make are:
1. Explaining and experimenting with synth patches, especially when you're not alone - Rob's latest video with you guys just patching and jamming for an hour was one of my favorites! It scratches the same itch as watching tool restoration videos for me, it's just very entertaining to watch someone with a ton of technical knowledge exercise their skills to make something beautiful
2. 4 Producers 1 Sample. Just super fun.
3. Song challenges. It's lovely to get to see you tackle incredibly strange and difficult creative problems.
Longtime fan of the channel and love all the great work you do. Thank you for sharing your experience and enthusiasm with all of us here on CZcams!
Super excited! I ordered mine like a week ago and it's still on the way. But soon.... Very soon... Thanks for being a great content creator! You got me in on eurorack and helped me understand the basics.
Congrats again, Andrew! Ghost looks like an amazing sound-design tool with a wide range of possibilities. The input\output VCAs are brilliant, and having the option to change the order of the different sections is so good (delay
everb into distortion FTW!). Also having a little filter-like control on the input signal is so useful. Lots of controls to perform with and shape the sound as a part of the performance. Perfect! Congrats to you and Endorphin.es
Congratulations on your release!!
Sounds incredible and looks very intuitive to use, great job Andrew (and the rest of the team)!
You've done well with this module. Very impressive.
Nice Module!! Love DIY AUDIO and MIDI 🖤
That ambient demo reverb.... ☁☁☁☁☁
Congratulations!
Love it, wish I had my modular rack on hand and the budget to throw this in. :)
Congrats, looks and sounds dope!
Amazing work, Andrew!! Glad you're able to do such cool work that is so personal to you.
💖💖
Congratulations brother! It is super awesome to see how things are unfolding for you. ❤
Congratulations Andrew I’ve been following you for years and you’ve come a long way!
Awesome, love watching your content.
I've always wanted to get into modular synth. I'm now an older disabled veteran, but I will be saving money to get started, and I will definitely want to get some of your namesake modules.
Thanks again.
Congrats for the release. Sounds great!
congratulations !!!! you always surprise me with your creativity .. i hope you follow up with more of the same ( ultracompact ,multifunctional )
Looks awesome man seems like a great choice for my first rig. Seeing as you're the reason I've gotten into modular it seems fitting :) excited to see what you come up with next
Sounds dope! Hopeful someday I can afford to build a eurorack. Today is definitely not that day lol
Your Eurorack videos always send me into a fun rabbit hole of research 🙂
Bought this a week ago, getting the hang of it.
Really a completing adition to my small set up. Very cool module.
Almost finished my GHOST video but after watching yours I need to revisit some of my patches. Your Ghost is better than mine, simply because you understand every HP of it and why it's there. I'll post tomorrow. You'll love my version of the Andrew 'slap'.
Haha oh wow I’m so excited for this!
I’m putting together a stereo noise modular and this seems so perfect for that. Thanks, Andrew!
bro this is so sick!! congrats on making your own piece of hardware! it sounds absolutely incredible.
Congratulations Andrew! You’ve been an inspiration for me for a long time! Saving money to buy it!
Huge congrats! I'm excited to see what other modules you've got cooking (even though I'll probably never own any modular lol)
It was only a matter of time!! I hope that you do some non-modular boxes and stuff for us too!!
*reverb starts*
alright I gatta order this
I cannot wait to start making art with this! You're the best my friend.
Congratulations man! Huge deal! Wish I had a euro rack setup to go add this to!
Man all these modular videos make me want to get into modular myself, it looks so fun, but then the pricetags are just always so expensive! Super cool that you have your own module now though and I will continue to live vicariously through your modular videos.
Wow! now that's inspirational on more than one level! Im looking at a range of granular modules right now and more the problem is there's too much choice but your Ghost sounds great for post / effect after the granular processing is set.
Nice. Can’t wait to see the rest of your upcoming hardware!!!
absolutely insane to me you went from a few patches to making your own moduel. amazing sounds
Hit me name above ☝️☝️☝️
Something special for you 🎊🎉🎉.
I don't have any modular gear, but still super pumped for you and watched the whole video!
Really cool to see this. Grats Andrew, very nice!
Oooh! Synth stuff feels like such a natural fit for you to make! Exciting.
Thanks! Excited for a lot of ideas I wanna bring to life :)
Congrats!!! Dope module
Omg dude I felt like I ascended with that ambient demo. I love ur vids :)
oh wow this is absolutely incredible, this is a complete must-have
The People at Endorphines are brilliant. I looking forward to seeing what else this collaboration has in store.
Seems very thought out 👍👍👍
Woah, the director of bjorks music videos made a eurorack pedal! ;)
This thing sounds gorgeous Andrew, you and the folks at endorphins should be so proud!
Wow, fair play! I had my doubts when I saw it, it's a dense panel with alot going on but this would be both great in a live eurorack setup as a master effect/processor and also interesting in the studio with the amount of options on it. Very interested to see what other hardware collaborations are upcoming.
that´s a lot in such a small module 👍 congratz!
the ambient demo section is 😍
Been trying really hard not to dive into modular, but might have to now. That thing sounds incredible and looks very intuitive
The reverb is expansive! 😳
Buy milky way same stuff and more.
So proud of you man! Ghost sounds incredible and I'll definitely be buying it ✊🏻
Andrew man u have made me modular geek can't stop thinking bout it .thank u
Haha all day everyday me too
Congratulations on the hardware. Seems to pack a lot of sound shaping into a small space. 👏🏻 in-line compression/side chaining is very compact too
Congrats!
That Reverb is one of the best sounding I've heard, I love the qualities of it. The entire module is dope, but damnnnn, that reverb tho. This might be my first modular piece of gear. I can still use this with non-modular sound sources, right? No reason not to. It makes some beautiful sounds.
Totally, we’ve run guitars and line level stuff through it!
@@andrewhuang I’m all over it then. Ordered!
@@brnktv Keep in mind you have to power it! Eurorack gear takes power from ribbon cables & a eurorack power supply. You would also almost definitely want it sitting in some sort of case.
pre-ordered months ago, so glad to get my shipping confirmation today from perfect circuit. 👻
Thanks for the early support!! Hope you have fun with it!
Huge congratulations 🎉 can’t wIt to try it out
Hit me name above ☝️☝️☝️
Something special for you 🎊🎉🎉..
Love that filter setup...much want.
Sounded beautiful
Very musical module. Well done team 🙂
I’m loving what I’m seeing of this module. Great layout too for UI. Regardless of spaghetti it seems like you can get at everything without the confusion that happens with modules that cram all the jacks in one spot. Thought out like an instrument. I already have a mimeophon but it might be a really great addition if I get a bigger case (in the plans in the next year probably).
Thank you! I always prefer if the jacks are near the knobs they correspond to, removes a lot of mental friction when patching. There’s gonna be cable spaghetti no matter what!
That reverb sounds awesome
congrats!!!
This is so cool , incredible job
