Buchla TTA 248T MARF | Quick Start 'Manual'.
video upload by
"I think it's the first time I made a tutorial without actually using the module. I made two 'Building a MARF' videos where I'd use regular modules like Metropolix, Rene and Stages to mimic the workflow and it already had great music. My channel is educational and I love to make videos like this to learn the module instead of showing it off.
The 248T 'MARF' is a Multiple Arbitrary Function Generator, which translates to a freeform modular composer for melody, expression, and extremely complex movement over time. It's hard to find all that in a single module, so maybe this explains why the 248 is a panel.
If you don't aspire to own a budget Buchla from TTA, your closest equivalent is a Maths with Rene V2. If you have those, try to patch it up like a MARF and be amazed. Simply use cycles as clocks and use any X, Y or C channel for time intervals (to change cycle speeds). In my humble opinion, you shouldn't buy a 5K modular for making 16 step sawtooth sequences. It's about happy accidents and they don't happen if you stay on the path like a responsible musician."

Explaining and testing Multiwave by Make Noise
video upload by Stazma
"Today I'm happy to show you some stuff with the MultiWave by Make Noise.
This is a 8-voice wavetable beast with a quite interesting way of generating polyphonic structures from a single set of CV/Gate signals. In this video we will be focusing on understanding the modules and making some music with it inside the NUSS system (with Polimaths & QXGs) but I might do a video on using it outside of it later on.
Have fun!!!

Analog Anonymous | Episode 01
video upload by Cinematic Laboratory
"In this new series I want to focus on cool sounds without immediately revealing which modules are used. The principle is simple, if you don't like how a module sounds, change something until you do. Back in the 1970's, a Serge panel could do anything - and you'd need to figure out how. Just think of Maths versus a dedicated Envelope Generator or LFO. A swiss army knife versus a specialized screwdriver for a specific kind of screw. The module in this episode feels like one of those screwdrivers and my goal is to explore such a module until it becomes multi functional. It's often not about the gear, everything's been done before. It's about using your modular lego bricks and build something you'd have weeks or months of fun with.
Even though the series is called Analog Anonymous, inspired by the AA and solving bad habits, it can include both analog and digital gear. In this series, 'analog' means 'analogue to air pressure'. Whatever you're using, your ears are always analog. In modular synthesis, your patch is not intended to be sober. We need to be intoxicated by sound while being in the Zone. Very healthy, very Zen. I talk too much. Have fun!"

Make Noise NUSS | Immediacy vs Flexibility?
video upload by Braintree56
"This video is all about the Make Noise New Universal Synthesizer System.
What I keep coming back to is this idea of tradeoffs.
This system offers a lot of immediacy. It’s fast, playable, and designed in a way that makes it easy to get interesting results quickly. But at the same time, that design comes with some limitations in flexibility and creative control.
In this video, I wanted to explore that balance.
To me, this doesn’t really feel like a traditional modular system made up of independent modules. It feels more like a single instrument that’s been broken into parts—and that changes the way you approach patching."
Bad Gear - It's a MESS!!!
video upload by AudioPilz
"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about Make Noise 0-Coast. This 2016 wannabe music tech influencer must-have and flyover state synth tried to bridge the gap between buchlaesque exploration and moog-ish accessibility and offers a wide range of modular flatulences with a mostly useless built-in anti-Eurorack safeguard. What a mess!"

video upload by Stazma
"Today I'm happy to show you some stuff with the GTE by Make Noise.
GTE stands for 'Gestural Time Extractor', the concept of the module is to take any incoming signal and extract timing information from it's level. It's particularly great to creat weird rhythms (synced to clock or not) as well as to mangle audio rate signals into many supersonic squares.

XenoMorph II - MakeNoise Polymorphism with NUSS and Morphagene
video upload by Cinematic Laboratory
"Five years ago, I already played with the idea of expanding the Morphagene into a shapeshifting creature. I used two Phonogenes to process the Morph's L and R outputs, inspired by a lo-fi Ciat-Lonbarde Cocoquantus. It was a fun experiment. This Xenomorph is different, a worthy V2. It's a custom 104 HP system I designed as a synth I did not know how to make:
Morphagene
Mult
MultiMod
PoliMaths
QXG x 2
X-PAN
Mimeophon
When used in a skiff, X-PAN is replaced by X-OH (output) and a mult. If you have stackables, you can even use the new GTE. The idea is to bring the stereo Morphagene OUTS together with the QXG outs, so you'll need to stack/mult one Morph out into MultiMod.
The 7U case obviously has the CV bus and - can / could - contain the regular NUSS layout AND the Xenomorph Granular NUSS system. Together they could hold two universes which makes it Multiversal (NMSS) which logically brought me to the name 'Nemesis'. We often assiciate that name with something bad, but after a bit of research it translates to 'the force that reveals your limitations'. So when we meet our Nemesis, the only thing we need to do is grab another patchcable and say 'why stop here?' bla, bla, bla.
Seriously. This is an amazing layout.
Even though MultiMod was never intended for audio, again it's my favorite way to use it, and now it's the core of this setup. It will take the L[mono[ channel of Morphagene as an input so it will create eight roughly independent tentacles. MultiMod has a NUSS header on the back, so without any cable clutter it connects to QXG's audio in and PoliMaths will do the envelopes. So I am basically replacing the MultiWAVE for Morph + Mod as the new sound engine.
I did not realize I'd be getting a genuine granular synth on steroids. A workstation."

DRONE MUSIC / Make Noise STREGA / Universe Zen TESSERACT / Pro-Ject Elemental / perform by GIPNOZER
video upload by G I P N O Z E R
"In the beginning, there was only the Void, and within it were born the Shapers—beings of pure energy whose thoughts shaped the universe. They wove galaxies like webs, breathed life into stars, and created countless worlds inhabited by wondrous creatures. But in the very act of creation, a flaw was born, a disharmony the Shapers failed to foresee. Their creations, imbued with a spark of self-awareness, began to deviate from the intended plan, evolving in unpredictable directions. At first, these deviations were minor, but over time they gained momentum, giving rise to chaos and destruction. The Shapers tried to intervene, to direct, to correct, but their control weakened with each passing moment. The universe, once their perfect creation, became a rebellious force, devouring itself. Stars faded, planets disintegrated, and life, once so vibrant and diverse, died in agony. In the end, the Creators, exhausted and broken, watched as their universe collapsed into a point, returning to the very Void from which they had once emerged. And with it, they themselves vanished, leaving behind only a silent nothingness, an eternal testimony to the futility of even the most powerful plans.

A Guide to Synthesizer Filters (and how to use them to make music)
video upload by The Unperson
"In today's guide to synthesizer filters I break down filters and show how you can use them to make music. Whether you’re working with eurorack, hardware, software, analog, or digital synths, this guide should help you further understand filters.
We start with the basics, looking at what filters do and how low pass, high pass, and band pass filters shape sound. From there, I move into modulation, showing how to use envelopes and LFOs to add movement, rhythm, and expression to your patches.
I also cover filter self oscillation and how filters can become sound sources in their own right. Towards the end, we get into more advanced techniques like filter banks and stereo filtering to create wider, more complex sounds and mixes.
If you’re into synthesis, sound design, or electronic music production, this will give you techniques you can immediately apply to your own tracks.
Topics covered include synthesizer filters, eurorack and modular synthesis, sound design, envelopes, LFO modulation, filter self oscillation, filter banks, stereo filters, and electronic music production.
Perfect for fans of synthesis, sound design, eurorack, modular systems, and electronic music production.

Korg Phase8 + Make Noise Morphagene & Mimeophon (in two parts)
video upload by Genshi Media Group
"::| WARNING! EXTREME FREQUENCIES AHEAD. USE CAUTION! |::
A second test of the @KORG_INC Phase8 Acoustic Synthesizer, this time paired with the @MAKEN0ISEMUSIC Morphagene and Mimeophon. Sadly, at around the 7:29 mark, the Morphagene crashed! I have never experienced that before in the 9 years of owning the Morphagene (I made a separate "crash report" video which I am sending to Make Noise as I am able to reproduce this bug 100% of the time.)
As for the Phase8... I love this thing! As a percussionist first (my Father started me on the drums when I was 4 years old and over the years I picked up many different percussion instruments) the Phase8 just warms my heart. The kind of interesting rhythms you can get, along with the accents that can be achieved by placing objects on the Resonators (no, it's not just a gimmick) allows for the creation of everything from India Tabla style sounds, to West African rhythms, and more! It really is a creative and inspiring tool...."
