Blade Runner - Inspired Ambient Modular Piece | Eurorack Modular & Korg ARP ODYSSEY |

video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thanks for watching!

I don't have my modular gear from New York, so I decided to see what I can create with my remaining modules at home and put it into a Pittsburgh Structure EP-420 Modular System. After recording what I can, I decided to also include some improvisation on the Korg/ARP ODYSSEY, as I don't get to use it that often when I am away. Hope y'all enjoy it! Happy Holidays!
Also, this is my 200th video on this channel!!!

Oscillators Used:
- Black Corporation Deckard's Voice
- Synthesis Technology E370 Quad Morphing VCO
- Mutable Instruments Elements
- Cwejman VCO-2RM"

10 - MINUTE AMBIENT PIECE USING CYCLING 74' MAX MSP/ BEAP/ JITTER

video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thanks for watching!
Made this short 10-minute ambient piece using Cycling '74 Max, and more specifically the modular engine called Beap, as well as Jitter. Everything was recorded into an element called 'Recorder'. Did some slight EQ and compression adjustments in Ableton after that, but very minimal to stay true to what was recorded in Max.

1 Hour of Relaxing Ambient Modular Soundscape to Help You Study, Relax, and Sleep | Episode 2 |

video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thanks for watching!
This is the second patch in this new series of very long modular soundscapes which will be anywhere from one hour to 4 hours depending on the complexity of the patch and how many modules I am using.

Seems like y'all really enjoyed the previous one, so I will continue on this trajectory. 1 or 2 videos per week, as well as some Ambient Explorations episodes which are coming soon.
Cheers!

1 Hour of Ambient Modular Music - Perfect for Relaxation, Meditation, and Sleep

video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thanks for watching!
Hope this new series I am starting will help in your everyday life. This can be used for meditation, studying, or even to help you sleep. I got a new computer which is able to handle longer videos, so this is the first one like that.

Now that school has kicked in pretty hard, I will start posting once a week for the foreseeable future. I will keep uploading videos in HD until I save up for a new camera that records in 4K60UHD. so maybe by early next year, the quality will be impeccable. I also switched my video editing software from Adobe Premiere Pro to Black Magic Designs DaVinci Resolve 18, for that great color grading, and overall interface.
Cheers!

video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

Thanks for watching!
The goal for this patch was to essentially try to sound like Richard Devine's style of modular performance but with far less gear, so only 2 cases worth of modules. There are quite a bit of voices in this patch, including:
- Noise Engineering Basimilus Iteritas Alter
- Mutable Instruments Plaits
- Mutable Instruments Rings
- Instruō Cruïnn
- Instruō Arbhar
- Instruō Lúbadh
- 1010music Bitbox Micro
- Moog Subharmonicon

Hybrid Ambient / Upbeat Ableton & Eurorack Piece. (Expert Sleepers ES-9, CV Tools)

video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thank you for tuning in!
Using the Expert Sleepers ES-9, I was able to marry eurorack and Ableton in a way that allowed me to record a portion of the Ableton Project's midi files using CV Instrument CV/Gate Outputs straight into different oscillators and envelope generators, and then back into Ableton as an audio input. As a result, the eurorack parts can become a real-time part of the pre-composed music. I'm just trying new things as much as I can. Cheers;)

Ambient Explorations pt.37 (Instruō Cruïnn)

video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thanks for watching! #modular #eurorack #ambient
In this episode of 'Ambient Explorations', I am using the recently-released Instruo Cruinn, which is a wonderfully sounding stereo through-zero phase modulated oscillator. All the stereo elements that repeat over time, which are sawtooth waves, are coming from this module, in case you wanted to know what it sounds like. It is being supported by its fellow family members: Instruo Arbhar for stereo granular elements; Instruo Lubadh, which is receiving the summing output from Cruinn, and slowing down or speeding up randomly by being modulated by Instruo/Divkid øchd; Instruo CS-L, which is going through Mutable Instruments Clouds to create a nice yet weird background texture (it sounds like people playing violins in the higher register); and Instruo Lion which is taking care of most of the modulation routings within the system.

MIDJOURNEY AI AUDIO-VISUAL EXPERIMENT - (AI)'m Happy Now

video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thank you for tuning in!
Around a year ago, during the epidemic, I released a highly experimental piece of music called '(AI)'m Happy Now.' It was a piece of despair, anxiety, and feeling isolated in the world. Inspired heavily by the graphics from Blade Runner 2049 and the whole concept of the Blade Runner series. I had no method of conveying visually what I wanted to say with that song until MidJourney AI came out, so here are the first 3.5 minutes of it before it goes rather ridiculous electronically. This is precisely what I was thinking when writing this song, so please listen and enjoy:)

The narrative is based on three books: Philip K. Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, Dave Eggers's The Circle, and Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451.
//
There are just a few humans remaining on the globe. The year is 2100. Machines have taken control, everything is being closely monitored, and there is no such thing as privacy. Everything in the world is artificial, and all happiness has vanished. The last remaining true humans are hiding and wandering the world in the hopes of finding themselves and maybe fixing everything, but the machines are snooping around, eager to exterminate all humans. The narrative is a large metaphor for people's daily lives during the initial stages of the pandemic, and how they had to adjust to the unknown and (hopefully) eventually persevere through it. This narrative has no finale; it is merely the beginning.
Thank you for your support. I'm happy now;)

What are Modular Synthesizers? | History, Formats, & Notable Users|

video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

"Thanks for watching and welcome to a project that I wanted to start for a very long time, and that is: 'Piotr Garbaczonek Presents Modular Tutorials, Tips, Tricks, and more...'

This is my first video like that in which the goal is to introduce the concept of modular synthesizers to people who may have never heard of them, and kind of open the gate to the world of modular for those people. What is modular? Who uses modular? What different formats are there? Why would they be used over software synthesizers? How they can be used in the music industry?

Please give me feedback and suggestions in the comments so that I can improve my videos next time. As you can see, I have never really done this type of content before, but I am trying it out and hopefully, it can be of help to people out there, but I am not perfect, so if there is anything that you don't agree with, or know some facts that I may have misrepresented please let me know in the comments, and as always I am grateful for your suggestions, and taking the time to provide them to me:)

In the next few videos, I am planning to be centered around different types of modules in a modular system, before going into making patches from scratch and kind of explaining my process of going about making modular music/sound design, etc.

I am a graduate student right now, so I am very unsure how I can manage schoolwork and these videos so the timeline of these is undecided but just know that they are in the works and they will be done when they will be done.

Cheers, and thanks for your constant support;)

Hans Zimmer -"Time" (From 'Inception'), Modular Rendition | Expert Sleepers ES-9, VCO-2RM, Plaits...

video upload by Piotr Garbaczonek

Thanks for watching!
I decided to try some of the features of my new Expert Sleepers ES-9 Module, and using the Ableton CV Instrument tool, I managed to send CV/Gate info from MIDI directly through the ES-9 and into various oscillators, and back into the interface to record. It was split into 4 monophonic voices, and I was using Plum Audio's OCP (Ornament & Crime Plus) module's 4xEG mode, for the Envelope Generator. You can see the triggers of the notes by the flashing of the Analogue Solutions LED CV Cables, which is also a recent addition to me trying to make my videos look like Richard Devine's :)

Dune - Inspired Suspenseful Eurorack Modular Piece || Plum Audio OCP

"Thanks for watching!
Inspired by Dune's suspenseful feel in some of the desert scenes. I used my newly finished O&C module: Plum Audio OCP for sequencing. Most other voices include Mutable instruments Rings, Cwejman VCO-2RM for Bass, and Basimilus Iteritas Alter from Noise Engineering as some droney/high itches elements.
