  • Microfreak Automation Lanes (Basic Walkthrough)
    Today I'm finally looking at the Microfreak's automation lanes! The Microfreak sequencer is a really powerful tool in the Freak's arsenal, and the four available automation lanes let you easily tap into that power. The fact that the automation runs separately from the digital patch bay's modulations means that you can get some absolute wild sounds out of the pair. Enjoy the video :)

    I bought my MicroFreak kinda on a whim, but it’s becoming one of my favorite tools! Paired with my octatrack for FX, I’ve done a lot of work it’s just that. And they keep improving it!

      Yeah, it's the synth that keeps on giving haha. I wonder what they'll add next!

      Everything is super easy on the Microfreak. It's all obvious shorcuts and barely any menu. Incredible how much they cram into such a simple interface.

    The Microfreak is a great synthesizer, I started experimenting with it a few months ago and making JAMs so it is very complete no matter how you look at it.

    The DSP processor in this synth is freakin' NUTS. Thanks for making the automation function so easy to understand and configure. The uFreak is deff'ly one of my favorite synths. I like to think of the uQ from Waldorf as the 'Freak's' predecessor but Arturia really stepped this bitch up!

    Thats really cool. Ive had mf for 2 yrs and didn't know this. Makes me wonder what else I'm missing out on. I had the manual printed and bound and now I'm thinking perhaps I should actually read it.

    • @FreeBeat
      @FreeBeat  2 роки тому

      Yeah it's pretty deep, there are so many little features I keep discovering the more I use it. Thanks for watching!

    Last week you did OP-1 audio track recording and my comment was “this is really easy on the Deluge too” so you made a great video on the Deluge audio track recording. So, here is a suggestion for next week 🙂: this automation lane recording on the micro freak is also really easy on the Deluge.. you can record one button (both stepwise, by pressing a pad and turning the knob) or real time (play with record on and tweak the knobs). You can clear individual knobs. So the Deluge has as many automation lanes as it has parameter knobs, works both for synth and sample tracks.

      I actually film my videos farther in advance than you might think haha. I already have one done on the basics of deluge automation, I don't like to focus too much on one piece of gear at the same time though, got to spread the love! Thanks for watching :)

  • @neonpop80

    Can the micro freak play multiple sequences simultaneously? I bought the korg bass but now I’m thinking I could’ve just bought the micro freak.

    • @FreeBeat
      @FreeBeat  2 роки тому

      It can't play more than one sequence at the same time, but each preset can have two sequences stored to it.
