I love your use of this in the Make Noise case. So perfect. I mean labyrinth plus some cool function generators, filters (QPAS or the new Procyon) and some other fun modulation from stuff like an OC, and a Pams thrown in. What a solid kit! That middle 1U bus board is so clutch
This is a smart framing--seemingly the perfect approach for what the instrument is and, as such, I learned a lot more than I did from the flood of videos back at launch. I guess it's helpful to have the perspective of 2026.
Unbelievable video! and Moog hit the gold spot here. I missed the first batch, its sold out. Im going for the next batch....damn...i' love this thing and adding the low pass gate is pure magic. And also a Moog Filter..... its everything comming together🚀✨️
My guess is that if you spend a lot of money on a modular or semi, you don't want it to sound like the VST on your Mac or your classic Model D. I've spent many many days behind the PC creating songs and tracks and I really enjoyed it, but it never felt like I was doing it. I make a lot of noise on the modular, but I am sure it's my noise :).
Same. (not ordered yet). If this had been available 4 years ago I would not have spent about 20 K on eurorack to achieve basically what Labyrinth does.
Same here. I think I could stay away from that order button for about two days while patching the same functionality. But I ended up with 120 HP and a lot of spaghetti.
@@CinematicLaboratory Which maybe would give me more fun of creating it. Of course (Mini) Moog is all about "forget the spaghetti, I have created what you need in a box", I'm still not convinced. This looks like a very nice machine and I have been a click away of getting a second hand Matriarch, but I still didn't get a Moog. Now it's not an American owned company anymore, is it going to be like 'cheap' Behringer? The small pot meters make me go 'mêh'. No ladder filter... Ok, it's about making it complex (additive) instead of subtractive, but still, it would have been nice to filter the complex created sound with the signature filter.
@@CinematicLaboratory Many demoed it like it was a DFAM. Just watched again. 16:20 If this had been available four years ago it would have saved me 20 K in Eurorack Modules - what you are doing here is what i wanted to do.
Those sounds starting at 9:44 sound like they could might as well be adapted to modern rhythm game tunes, in lieu of the usual supersaw and neuro-noise stuff. But still, this Labyrinth does sure know how to deliver both nags and punches in its own way, similar to that of Cre8audio and PGH's own West Pest (although a side-by-side hardcore/speedcore jam would also be far more interesting).
I want this thing sooo much. And, yes, it would pair beautifully with my DFAM. And a Maths... maybe I need to get them both... *sigh* Where does my money go? ;)
I had it written off. Give it a miss i said...I've enough Moog synths to play with; The DFAM, Sirin and Subharmonicon. That's enough i thought. I've watched video after video on the Labyrinth and still felt underwhelmed..then you turn up and opened the bloody floodgates!
Do you think the Labyrinth is a good synth to add to the Mother-32, DFAM, and Subharmonicon? I've messed with it a little bit, but I was totally lost like never before. Do you think those four synths together, plus my Eurorack utilities case is a good way to go? Thank you in advance for any info/thoughts you can provide!
Please note this is my personal opinion. Labyrinth is the best of the batch but it's unlike any Moog except DFAM which is also 'dual complex'. Together they can do wonders. I made a video with all four and a bit of external help, and it was an amazing experience. Labyrinth gllues everything together. Here's the Moog Studio 4 tour: ua-cam.com/video/p6Zf12PhGlw/v-deo.htmlsi=j4jro6A9MxsWQLAd
@@CinematicLaboratory Thanks again, I watched it and the Labyrinth two years from now videos! I'm so sorry about your mom, what a bittersweet memory. It gave me goosebumps. Am I correct in thinking that your belief is that all four (Mother-32, DFAM, SubH, and Labyrinth) are not great solo, but together they create a beautiful synth? Especially when combined with utility modules, such as Maths, Pam's Pro, EGs, Mixers, LPGS, etc. Did I understand correctly?
@@alexandermontagnet3361 As a rule of thumb, all eurorack modules aren't 'great' on their own, the power is in the combinations. The Moogs are full voices so they can already do a lot on their own. The M32 offers tons of utilities you otherwise had to accomodate and it becomes brilliant with a looper and reverb. As I showed in the video, with all four Moogs, you'd have a 'band'. I'd say you should add a mixer and FX, and that's enough to keep you busy for a long time.
@@CinematicLaboratory Thank you! I've added a few extra EG's, Ochd, FX, Maths, Pam's Pro, VCAs, mults, two more filters, etc. Would love to add Arbhar for the polyphony.
I'd say Maths and the DXG stereo LPG.Not sure if you really 'need' those immediately but it will seriously extend your palette. Maths could add two more 'VCO's' or complex movement, which is going to be really cool. If you use a 104 HP powered case you could add Maths, DXG, X-OH (output) and FX-AID XL. Good luck!
That's exactly how I would do it. I twist knobs one at a time and try to remember how it affects sound. After a little while (a few years) you'll be able to predict what will happen and almost imagine how a patch would sound without a modular nearby. That's is generally the moment where I'd get professional help.
Watched *some* of the videos. Read the manual. Tried to like it as a "generative DFAM". But... Nope. I would take a Marbles clone & clock divider, plus a Buchla inspired synth voice; instead of the Labyrinth.
For sure that would work, no doubt. However I will say that I do have all those things (marbles, pams pro, OC, Grids, CsL as a voice, etc etc) but there is just something beautifully elegant about these little Moog kits. I have all of them except Mother 32 and Spectraphon, and I gotta say at first I was meh, but over time working with them and time after time just getting amazing results , I’m a convert. I think as an interconnected collection of all very affordable little boxes, the 60hp mother series is a formidable instrument

Why is it that the more abstract the sounds get,…the more i love them? Fantastic work as always, i’m just beginning my journey in the Labyrinth

Wonderful video, thank you! Very imaginative and beautifully presented ❤
Great video on the Labyrinth. I was lucky to get one and it really is amazing.
Thanks for the video, I much appeeciate it! As beginer who needs the snipets of technique, its a great explanation. Thanks
When this came out, I looked at my modules, and I thought to myself, "I have all of the already." Of course I ordered one.

Exactly……
The first and only video so far that understands what this is and uses it accordingly.
Wow, thanks.

@@snörre23my thoughts exactly
Very, VERY cool!
Thanx for sharing! Moogla is a absolutely nice definition! The laby is flashing me;-) Best greeetz 🖖👽
Would love to hear what you do with this and a Subharmonicon!
This is brilliant. The time of the rungler is upon us!
Fantastic video - you do it justice. Suddenly it’s on my radar….

Completely brilliant!
I keep telling myself "no". Isnt that a stupid notion. You really do it justice. Kudos.
'Moogla' - I love it!! 😊
was waiting for someone to add a LPG. Love it!
I am sorry you had to wait two long years for that.
Amazing work. Thanks!

Great!
I have the DFAM bc it’s cool af .. but this new one .. I really wanna get one. I’m a west coast synth bro so of course I want one !
Lorre mill double knot vs moog labyrinth…hard choice. I prefer the pulsating sounds I’ve listened from the DK. Wish someone can compare both.
At 19:49 you were really getting into such a jam, I wish you didn’t cut out at 19:54
I am happy to hear this. You may love the Buchla/TTA 259 video I'll post in a few hours. This Is The Way.
Yeah I mean I’m west coast all the way… my absolute favorite go to oscillator module is my instruo CsL…
Which seems like a riff on the 529 for sure

You will not regret it! More patch ideas coming soon!
@@CinematicLaboratory yes more patch ideas please! Keep up the amazing work! 🎛
I have a labryinth and very interested in doing this set up..I need a small rack but what else do I need..Maths and ?

Maths could add two more 'VCO's' or complex movement, which is going to be really cool. If you use a 104 HP powered case you could add Maths, DXG, X-OH (output) and FX-AID XL. Good luck!
Cosmotronic Delta V is actually essentially a the two outside Maths channels in 8hp. Not sure why it flies under the radar but it’s every bit as good
An experimental box that needs augmentation from external sources inc filters to function as shown.
I can't possibly argue with that kind of logic.
mixing semi modular with modular? how many rabbit holes are there?
I am afraid they are kaleidoscopic...
What reverb are you using here?
I don't have a clue how to use mine but if I plug cables in and twist knobs then eventually I will get something good
That's exactly how I would do it. I twist knobs one at a time and try to remember how it affects sound. After a little while (a few years) you'll be able to predict what will happen and almost imagine how a patch would sound without a modular nearby.

@ That is very encouraging Thank you

That definitely works too!
Not going to bother looking up the prices of this modules but I'm guessing combined they would cost more then the Labyrinth.
@@dreamabyss5423 If you selectively use Behringer, you can get close. But it isn't fair to compare eurorack & desktop synths for either format.

loved the video but the ai generated stuff gives me the ick
A few weeks from now you won't even notice what's AI generated and what's real. So that ick will go away. AI does not.
Are you a time traveler? In my reality, it's 2024.
