I have been a clasically-trained musician since 5 years old, which means I've had 25 years to become jaded to: - Guitars, Pianos, Pipe Organs, Brass Sections, Full Orchestras, Dubstep, Effects Pedals, every pop song on the radio, etc etc And yet, when I got my own Mother-32 something opened up for me. I have been staying up until 2-4 AM, sometimes staying up without sleeping at all. Just playing with the Mother-32 settings (and other musician-y stuff) So, please understand where I am coming from when I say THANK YOU for this video. It's exceptionally informative, fun and helpful to me. I've probably been pausing and experimenting with this lesson since 9 pm, and now it's past midnight. So just, thank you again, for providing so much value that I've been watching this for over 3 hours and having fun with it!!! -------------------- EDIT: it's almost 2 hours later and I'm still going at it nonstop!! Some names for the best sounds I've created with the Mother tonight (I write down all my favorite patches): - Cyberpunk Cathedral Organ - Stargazer Warmchill Strings - Tracerbullet Lead Great little synth and again, great educational video, thank you :)

My music career started with classical wind symphony music and me living under a musical rock. Still love wind symphony, but electronic music, which I used to passionately hate, is starting to sink its claws into me. It started with a Roland Boutique, which led to a Mother 32. Now I've got a whole eurorack setup and love it all. There's just something about having TOTAL control over the sound you get to make that is absolutely fascinating and alluring to me. You can't get enough of it.

Fell in love with the Mother 32 when I saw it in a music store. I'm not a hardware guy but just had to get it. Even if I'm not doing something truly productive it's just too easy to lose hours in this thing. I've been eyeing more modular pieces ever since but trying so hard to not expand. Love the video and easily one of the better tutorials I've seen for the Mother 32.

This is very cool. I passed on the opportunity to buy a Mother32 some time ago... I don't regret it as it does not fit what I needed back then (and still wouldn't fit my current workflow), but it is one of those synths to keep an eye on. It does sound precious, and is a great starting point for a very flexible modular system. The sequencer stroke me as a little bit complicated, though. So I'm looking forward to see more of your videos on this synth. Have a great week. Cheers!

Fantastic video thank you! Only error I picked up - it is oscillator frequency you are modulating with the random voltage source @21:47, not velocity. Velocity is a MIDI term related to volume (usually). The random voltage generator in your video is affecting the VCO pitch/frequency, not volume. Otherwise, great work!

So, I don’t know where to start... Let’s just be honest: I’ve been playing guitar for so many years and my music theory knowledge has always been next to zero. I’ve always been that kind of “play first, have fun, than learn to expand your boundaries” musician. At the end of the day, I’m still checking how to play scales sometimes xD but, my fortune (that’s what people during the years told me) is having endless passion and a natural ear for music, if you know what I mean. My goal has always been exploring sound with a guitar and make it sound as it is else. My first big inspiration was Robert Fripp, just to give you an idea. Said that, I had a long musical crisis, a period of time of around two years, in which I barely touched the instrument. I used to play and write music with Logic, a midi keyboard and a guitar for years and all of a sudden I stopped. It was painful and I’m still trying to understand what happened. Good thing though is that I used the past tense... that time is over now. I really believe it. Last week, I got all my stuff back, my guitar, my pedals, my cables and start to tweak and experiment again. I had thoughts in the past of getting into modular but I was too young and not financially independent. Now I can try to reach and afford this equipment and I finally made a decision. I want to learn how modular works and get myself (happily) lost into infinite soundscapes. I want to build something around my guitar, use it as a controller. I love reverb, creating room, play with delays and making loops/samples. I want to make my own “drum patterns” and playing something on top, and add sounds and sounds and sounds to make a wall of sounds, noises and notes. Where should I start? What can be best for me? I`ve watched the mother 32 DFAM comparison video and I`m not sure what can be better for me. Surely, I`ll need an audio interface now and start using again whatever DAW I`ll find cool for my tastes. I know it’s personal, every journey is different and you know where you start but where to go... any tip, suggestion, hint will be very appreciated.Thanks to whoever will use his/her time to read this and answer. I feel much better now :)
