Pulsar-23 Patch Along #3: Creating Melodic "Parts"
Вставка

- In this video I explore a patch that allows you to transition between melodic bass parts.
Check out some of these other people making cool pulsar videos:

Cheers!
Superb
Thank my friend! I’m glad you got something from it.
Nice, Liked, Subbed. 9:50 yeah, [LFO] clock still needs to be set for speed - even when synced - whereas the SHAOS 'hard locks' and syncs as you might expect. The clocked modules [LFO], [SHAOS] & [CLOCK] all have independent clocks, there is 'no master' as Vlad would say. I notice the coin on the electron for holding [CV] pads, a good way to get an extra pair of hands. Great SHAOS patch for melody control, and the end jam was cool too man, cheers! well done! :)
Very observant about the coin! Yep, that is what I use it for, and in fact I was going to use it in this video but I forgot. I usually put it on the CV pad to hold the cello/drone sound coming from the FX unit. When I don't want the drone I just turn down the delay volume rather than remove the coin. Thanks for the encouraging words!
Ever think about making a Pulsar video? You seem knowledgeable about the functions!
@@guiremcguire743 Thanks, I think i will at some stage, cheers!
Brilliant! More vids on Pulsar-23 like this!
First?
You win!
Love it, dude! Sparking my creativity!
Wait, you sparked my creativity. What gives!? ;)
Introducing the LFO to create the 16th beat is a stroke of genius! One thing you can do to guarantee a constant 16th is to just have the sync patched to the 16 clock and as long as you're up high on the LFO freq, you'll be locked into the 16th. A bonus for doing this, is you can then fade that 16th pattern in and out by slowing the LFO down and it'll essentially no longer trigger. This also frees up up that attenuator to still control the Bass Mod, but without the 16th rhythm if you don't want to. Really dig the end jam!
I tried out your suggestion and it worked like a charm-thank you! I like having that attenuator back for other uses. Thanks for the kind words about the end jam!
The Octatrack can send consecutive 1/16th midi note gate to be read as trigger pulsar? I use Akai force but it is being read as a long sustain gate instead, maybe its due to the fact that i cant edit the midi note length
You can select midi note length on Octatrack from 32nd notes to infinite. I usually send 32nd notes and then use the release on the envelopes of the pulsar so I can dial in grooves easier. Does that answer your question? I will be doing some videos on Octatrack controlling Pulsar in the future.
If a guy doesnt have any engineering background, how does one go about learning it to be able to discover these relationships?
Is it just an understanding you developed from many years of knob wiggling or did you have a background or learn from a helpful resource?
I am long time wiggler but have no idea about diodes or why you would ground something for an effect!
Anyway, gonna rig this one up after work today haha!
Blessings 🙏
Well, I have no special education or training in electronics or anything like that. What I know I have just gathered through experimentation and watching almost every Pulsar tutorial video I can find.
SR Wilson’s videos are amazing and gave me lots of ideas-great guy. Also, if you have not watched Vlad’s tutorial videos on each of Pulsar’s modules, then check those out.
The various written Manuel’s for Pulsar should be read as well.
Have fun exploring!
@@guiremcguire743 Thanks man!
I got all those resources lined up!
Thank you again keep these going it helps me when I always find myself doing the same connections
You are welcome. This is exactly what I think to myself when I watch S.R. Wilson's videos - "Wow, I never thought about doing that!"
When can we expect some Pulsar-23 videos? I would love to see what you are doing with yours!
@@guiremcguire743 some time I will just go over the basics etc. I'm still figuring it out lol
HM that's interesting
I was thinking what I can do with the 10 v pin naw I know what to do
If I find any other things to do with it I’ll let you know!
Such a great walkthrough, love the jam at the end! Great idea on the A/B sections with Shaos; feels like a creative principle that can be widely applied.
Very fkn awesome, great insight- thank you
Thanks! You have a great channel! I love to see you break down how you are using your Pulsar now-a-days.
absolutely love the videos! Just seeing others user Pulsar always surprises me. Just ending up seeing interesting patches which I would never have thought of myself.
I feel the same way about a lot of the cool Pulsar channels out there. It is really one of those instruments that you can just record what you are doing with it and to someone out there you a filming something amazing. Thanks for watching!
Great tutorial! 👍 Have a lot to learn with the pulsar. Most fun synth ever, imo.
Thanks for shoutout! 😊
I agree with you - such a cool piece of kit. Your videos are really cool. Find any cool techniques lately?
@@guiremcguire743 thanks! I tried to chain the four engines on the trigger input. But i guess i should realy look a bit into the manual. But try and error is more fun atm..;)
@@donadoma I saw that one - I always appreciate the explorations you go on. The manual helped me out a bunch; there are a bunch of cool tip and tricks in there.
Nice! Hope to post something soon..
Thanks! Please do and let me know when it is up. I love to see how you use your Pulsar! Cheers!
masterclass
Too kind :)
@@guiremcguire743 I played with a pulsar few months ago. But I have my own one since this week, I'm watching all your vids now haha.
@MatthieuSuiche if you haven’t watched S.R. Wilson’s Pulsar video, then I highly recommend watching those too. Really there are several great tutorials out there. Have fun!
@@guiremcguire743 Yes! Watching them too. Amazing stuff.
Finally... a quality tutorial series with clear concise information.
A diamond in the ruff :)
Brilliant ! Love the jam at the end. Nice one 👍👏🙏
Thanks so much!
