Mike Renouf is lost in space.
A designer, musician and general all-round oddball, Mike writes primarily techno and ambient electronic music using both hardware and software instruments. Most of his music is posted here on UA-cam because it's a fun way of putting stuff directly out into the world, but occasionally he will pop stuff onto Bandcamp or Instagram to keep things interesting.
Always keen to have a chat with other creatives or to help them come up with new ideas, Mike enjoys figuring out how bits of technology work. If you like his stuff, or you're stuck on something you think he can help with then go right ahead and send him a message.

Mr.Bill credits Copycatt for this in one of his videos.
Great! Credit where it's due 🙏 ✨🪐
That will be the same using it with the crave then ?
Pretty sure that's true. They are both built to be compatible with modular gear, so I guess the clocks will respond to the same trigger signals ✨🪐
I gues youre on enging streak, eh sigma?
Put all my points in Willpower. None left over for Charisma. Big mistake.
Mwah
Back at'cha 😘
2:57 nice grime patch that
✨🪐
Right in time. Just got my Edge this week. Thanks for this buddy
Can you switch the tempo between midi and the Edge Mike? 🤔😊
Not sure how that turns out on the fly - we should try! ✨🪐
@@MikeRenouf I'm gonna give it a go next time I turn it on 👌🏻
Great tutorial. It's about time someone does a how-to from scratch.
Glad it's helped ✨🪐
Thanks for the tips Mike… I have an original DFAM…. I haven’t turned it on for months…… Working shifts is such a bummer…… …… I know, I’m making excuses….. 🤔💯….😂
There's always tomorrow! It should be fun, not a chore ✨🪐
I was holding off getting the edge “would it play nice with my TR-8s?” Dude!!!
Yeah, they're a phenomenal combo. If you route the audio from the Edge to the external inputs of the TR8S you can add the delay and reverb too. ✨🪐
@@MikeRenouf Fella, stop. Pay day can’t come around quick enough!
@trevormalcolm4328 what have I done... 😣. Sorry for stoking the GAS.
@@MikeRenouf no don’t worry crack dealer! Sorry Mike I’ve been thinking about the Edge for months but I’m not “modular minded” so I’ve gotta seriously think how stuff fits in with my gear (MPC 1000, couple of mono synths, Tr-8s) I hadn’t researched this but could I sync it with at least a Volca?
Lil purple fun box indeed, nice one Mike 👊
Much appreciated eMo 🙏 ✨🪐
That's nice, but not broken! Good programming
Thanks Aszent! ✨🪐
Nice polymetric groove! 😊
Thanks man! ✨🪐
I've just opened the editor for the first time in ages and got this problem, this worked though. I've only ever had problems with the editor, I never used to be able to see the bottom portion of it on my laptop screen, took a lot of searching about to sort that and now all the text on my screen is smaller as a result and I don't even use the damn editor! It should be better than it is(file transfer!) but I suppose it's better than nothing.
Yeah it's not built well! I'm just glad I can make kits with it. That's literally all I want it for. Happy the fix worked for you though ✨🪐
@@MikeRenoufI thought I'd give it a go again after reading an interesting tips and tricks thread on elektronauts, see how it goes. It's got tough competition, I've got pretty nifty with that value knob😂
Sounds good bud 👍🏻🔥
Thank you sir!
Nice. What do you have going into the Edge mike?
It's all witchcraft! 😜. There's a connection to the TR8S. I'm going to explain this in my next video 👍
my ears thank you.
Your ears are very welcome 😆. ✨🪐
Nice moves Mike, nice and eccentric indeed 👊
Cheers buddy ✨🪐
That was excellent, loved it.
Thanks very much. I appreciate it. ✨🪐
Same problem here, but this fixed it. Thank you!
Glad you're back in action!
15:00 love it
Thanks!
Nice work. Just finally acquired one myself. Good start The little box is a beast.
It's definitely a lot of fun! Pretty difficult to make it sound bad. 😆
thanks a really clear intro on how to use each oscillator
Glad it helped. More coming soon ✨🪐
Same problem in Windows 11. Closing the process solves the problem. If you set the TR-EDITOR to "run as administrator" also solves the problem. (On swedish windows version the process name is: "Webbvisningsprogram för skrivbordsappar")
Thanks - hopefully the additional info will help someone else! ✨🪐
Nice man. If seq pitch mod is off or for osc2 only, it doesnt affect osc1 pitch(kick) 😉
Yeah, at 3:15 on the vid I put it to osc2 only (not actually off, I mis-spoke), so the kick is unaffected by the sequenced pitches. 👍
Thanks, sounds very good, Im wandering how it sounds with some patches applied
I'm working on more lessons/patches for the Edge, and we'll definitely dig into the patch bay to make it do some funky things. Thanks for the comment, and for subscribing! ✨🪐
Sounds wonderful, very well balanced and great sounds! 😃 Interesting to watch how you tweak your setup live. 🙂
Cheers dude. Thanks for stopping by and glad you enjoyed it. ✨🪐
👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching. Glad you put some thumbs up 😆 ✨🪐
Aliens!! Is one of the greatest movies I watch, at least once a year since I was 5/6yr old
Yeah Aliens rocks! Hoping for at least a half decent film in Alien Romulus this year.
@@MikeRenoufkiller set btw fella 👌🏻
Bloody marvellous! Another one in the bag!
Thanks PK! ✨🪐
What impresses me each time is the variety of sounds from the same setup each time. That's inspiring to me as someone who can't settle.
Thanks for that - I feel like there's still a huge amount of ground I've not even broken yet with this setup. They always say, it's not the tools, it's the artist - I truly believe that once you've got a few basics covered in the rig. I switch up tools just to keep from getting bored from time to time, but not because I've run out of options to explore ✨🪐
@@MikeRenouf well I don't think I help myself using modular and trying to improvise both the programming side and the audio side at once. I've come to the conclusion that I should only do one or the other, otherwise neither ends up with the subtlety and sophistication of a good set.
Ahhh... Modular ... All bets are off 😆. Seriously though, it took me a few years to settle on my setup. I need to qualify what I was trying to say before: most musical styles will need a specific set of capabilities from the gear you're using. If you can figure those out and make them accessible with your setup then that's the goal. Just my 2cents.
@@MikeRenouf I completely understand. I think there is a tendency that a lot of UA-cam content is aimed towards selling a product, so it is really refreshing and encouraging to see someone hammering out new sets on a tried and tested rig. That is a situation I'm looking to be in, and your videos have given me a lot of food for thought I can translate to my gear.
Sunday gravy granules big sir, nice moves always 👊
👽😤👽💚👍👍👍👍
me I just use Operator for that tbh no cap
Yeah totally makes sense. They're all just tools, and if you have one which makes a task simpler, then use that. This was just provided as a quick answer to a question I saw in a comment section.
@@MikeRenouf yeah and you only need one osc to do that, you can just draw it in serum or Operator tbh that's what i do and sometime in serum i used bit of bend aka +/- to make it a bit sawtooth wave to give a bit more of a fat sounding sub bass and a bit of a Texture sound tbh
Another great jam Mike 👌🏻🫶🏻
Ta matey! Hope all well with you. ✨🪐
Bleep and bloop . Nice jam 👌🏼
Bleep AND Bloop? Hell, that's just greedy. 😆
Nice wee Sunday morning sizzle Mike, always enjoyable big sir, nice one ten hut 🫡
o7 boss! ✨🪐
WAHOOOOOOOOO, I love techno for Sunday breakfast !! with a bong !!!😂
Bong appetit 😆
@@MikeRenouf LOL
OMG so helpful... thx so much
Glad it helped!
@@MikeRenouf yes first time
so whats the difference here from just diving into the wavetable editor and adding a 3rd harmonic to the sine?
Probably yours is a more elegant solution. When I made this I wasn't as familiar with the serum wavetable editor, so I used a directly equivalent process. I imagine there are several ways to do it.
good vibes in the spaceship!
Hey Wabbit! Thanks man.
Nice one Mike 👌🏻, sounds great.
Thanks dude. Glad you enjoyed.
Great stuff mike, have you thought about adding a 303 to your setup, I think it will sound awesome, on top of the awesomeness :)
Hi Paul! I've got a TB3 that I should dust off. Haven't used it in a while. This was probably the best track I did using it: ua-cam.com/video/0T_aOsd6eNA/v-deo.htmlsi=BIkzCPVHsvYoiBzx
