I just purchased Hive II, I've barely had time to dig this deep but I'm blown away thus far. I was a Diva user but prefer the patches in Hive 2 for sure
What a great in depth and informative video. If the thumbs up button was a star rating, then I'd give it a ten out of ten. I've watched quite a few vids on the Hive 2 as I'm interested in getting this but I need to justify the cost. This vid has shown me how versatile this soft synth is of the fine tuning and tailoring in the modulation department and by doing so has now convinced me to buy a copy.
I have to say that the way you teach must be the way I learn, because you are always right on point, right on cue, and I NEVER find myself thinking "OK, time to move on, pal" or pressing right arrow to skip the next 5 seconds - repeatedly - like I find myself doing on SO MANY other tutorials. Your instruction and depth of knowledge is superb. Thank you!
Your videos are among the best, if not THE best in terms of explaining and demonstration. I enjoy learning from you a lot. Would love to see more tutorials (patch design) from you. Thanks!
What an impressive tutorial. Not just from a product standpoint, but the way you put all that together at the end there was smooth. Great production!! I'm gonna say H2 was well worth the $160 😉
This is a really nicely produced video! I made some notes and am eagerly looking forward to the upcoming videos. By the way, the *U-he Users and Sound Design* group on FB is currently working on a community Hive2 soundset if anyone would like to take part! The deadline is July 1st.
Well done :) It should be mentioned that modifiers can be used not only to affect modulations of signals yet also performance and midi control. e.g. take a bipolar modulation signal and have the upper portion control a destination and then the negative portion of the same control signal control something elese. a classic use is using the rectifiers to split the bipolar modulation signal of the PB wheel so that bending up controls one destination and bending down another. I too am a huge fan of Hive. I feel it was very well conceived with just the right amount of complexity, not-to-mention an extremely workflow-efficient interface. Furthermore, being able to save presets for various modules, including the mod matrix (!!!), boosts the efficiency through the roof and into outer space. ...and then there is the fabulous x/y mods. I usually use these to help me put some...unanticipated 'icing' on patches... or using them for b,c,d,e,f.... versions on the same patch. great fun. have fun.
Hi Waveform. I was almost afraid that you had stopped or paused your YT channel. I subbed when you've put out comprehensive videos on the MODX. But then your vids stopped for some time. Anyway glad you are back. I was eying on Hive2 this week but your video sure let me get digital GAS for this soft synth. Maybe I'il buy it . BTW are you gonna do more Modx vids in future?
Yes on the MODX vids... at least a couple more... let me know if there is anything specific you'd like covered on the MODX. I'm loving Hive 2 - this upgrade lifts it way beyond most Virtual Analog or Wavetable synths...

Both are amazing and can complement each other imo. I have both and love em!

Thanks Shane - I appreciate that!
I fully agree - awesome teaching!

Thanks very much, when time allows I will do!

What mod beast hive has become. Limitless. Thx for your intro to world of modulated bees.😎🙏
Very nice. Clear and concise. More like this would be appreciated!

Thanks for great demo! 😎🎹👍

Great! Just got Hive 2, and this was so useful…big thanks to you for making it!
Never been @this address, but find it quite comfy here :-)
Good job, the synth looks a big improvement on version 1, which I was a huge fan of..
PLEEEEEEEEEZ WORK..AND FINISH... THAT AWESOME DEMO TRACK AT THE END.... I was getting carried away on an icloud of serenitynousity GORGEOUS SOUND!!!
Great demonstration and explaination. Thank you :)
Really well explained tutorial mate. Thanks.
Great tutorial, 3 thumbs up for the silky patches

Really appreciate this, nice one!
Brilliant review
This was an excellent walkthrough! Are you planning on doing another for the function generators?
In a word...Yes...
Great video!
Thanks Chris...
just got this! good video
Thx :)
Thanks for the video. :)
Excellent video! But the Random modulation source is bipolar, so you might want to find some middle point between the detuning range.
Or you can just "unipolarize" in the mod matrix.
Why do I get a error even after following all the instructions given....... It says retry
Faar better than t he official u-he tutorials with the annoing loops.
Thanks!
