Synthesizing with Moog | Lesson 6: Carrier


video upload by Moog Music

Synthesizing with Moog

"In the 1970s, composer John Chowning used early computers to experiment with extreme vibrato effects. Modulating the pitch of a sound with an LFO gives a nice vibrato, but raise the frequency of the LFO into the audio rate and all of a sudden dense new textures are created. In this episode we look at how to create harmonics using basic waveshapes through processes such as Frequency Modulation (FM), Amplitude Modulation (AM), and distortion effects like saturation and wavefolding.

Written, hosted, filmed, and produced by our team of electronic musical instrument experts, this new seven-part educational video series makes learning the fundamentals of synthesis accessible, engaging, and inspiring for anyone curious about science, music, and how the two worlds converge. We set out to create a series that brings you as much technical knowledge as it does entertainment and joy as you watch each episode!

We invite you to follow along with us at home with a printable worksheet corresponding to the contents of each weekly episode. https://inmusic.to/bdhnff3m

video upload by cyma forma

"ALT is an analog synthesizer designed for drones, soundscapes, and complex generative melodies.

after 3 years of development, ALT is finally ready.

this video shows the final version of the instrument and goes over the concept, the main features, and what has been added since the prototype version that was shown last year, such as custom scales, a second filter, FM and AM, new MIDI modes and more.

we also show different ways to play ALT with sequencers, and how to use its filters and delay on external instruments.

ALT will be available to pre-order next week, and will be shipped in december.

pre-order information will be sent out in the next newsletter on friday, november 14th.
