  • I Don't Know What to do with the 1010 Nanobox Fireball
    My week has been absolutely HECTIC, I didn't get to edit this video until just a few hours before it was posted, and so I didn't have time to go back and fix the shots that didn't focus properly, sorry!
    I picked up the 1010 Fireball last month with no intention of making content with it. It was strictly a purchase for my live rig, nothing else. However, in the past few weeks, I've really fallen in love with designing sounds on it, which is huge for me, as sound design typically isn't my thing. Anyway, I've now found myself wanting to make some videos on the Fireball, but I'm not sure which direction to go in. So I'm turning to all of you! What would you like to see on the 1010 Fireball? Let me know in a comment below, and enjoy the video :)

    This Nanobox Fireball is the reason you aren't successful with music. You don't even know 5% of the stuff I know about music, because you spent all your time on shallow materialism and consumerism. This Fireball you are trying to figure out how to force yourself to use, is a joke object for someone like me who just worked on composing for 300 hours without taking a break except to sleep. I take music very seriously, you take consumerism seriously because you don't know what it feels like to win.

    When this box came out, I was completely uninterested. The lemon drop caught my eye more. This video has made it seem more interesting than any other I have seen. I would like to see videos just on how you use it. If you do some sound design for a patch you are actually going to use, how you set it up in your live rig, or writing a song with it. I am not interested in a tutorial. I would like to see how you use it in your creative process.

    • @FreeBeat
      @FreeBeat  7 місяців тому

      Awesome. Yeah, just doing a straight tutorial is something I want to avoid this time. I'm happy to see several folks suggesting songwriting, I definitely want to do a video on that.

    The 1010 Nanoboxes keep catching my attention. If I ever did pick one up, it would likely be the Lemondrop, but both seem like fun little synths with a lot of functionality. I would love to see you use it to create a completed song, and your process. My biggest curiosities are around how much menu diving they require and if they're actually useful in practical situations.

    I agree $400 is just at the edge of budget gear. Some of your followers might have a good point. I understand you’re aversion to an iPhone app for a live rig but what about incorporating an iPad into your rig?
    It could be a powerful and versatile tool

    • @FreeBeat
      @FreeBeat  7 місяців тому +1

      I'm not sure why, but I just have the hardest time trusting something like a phone or tablet in a live environment. I know folks like Jordan Rudess use iPads, but I'm not sure I could ever shake the uneasy feeling I have towards phones and tablets in a live setting.

    So remember the good old make a song in 10min?
    Id like to kinda see that. Hook-up the Polyend play and use the 1010 as a sound module, find a nice patch. And go on from there making a sick loop / jam :D
    Maybe it could be Sunday jam thing "Fireball and beats"?
    I'm mainly interested in hearing it in context of a song / jam.
    Also why not use a phone app? 🙈

    I have the FB but there is a sustain bug that can rear it's head when chaining the FB with other midi devices. The notes on the FB will hang. Hopefully they will patch this soon.

    I love the FB. I have a space limited set up so having something that sounds so versatile in such a small box is invaluable to me. I dont have serum or a DAW so can't make my own WTs but a quick google brings up a huge resource of free downloadable WTs and i have thousands on the thing now so it's really a limitless machine. Love it.
    In terms of what content to make? Maybe just enjoy this one?

    • @FreeBeat

  • @jantuitman
    @jantuitman 8 місяців тому +3

    Here is an somewhat random idea: if it has 2 wavetables and a third oscillator then it could act as a bitimbral synth, that switches timbres using a CC number. (You have to find a way to have 1 CC turn the volume of one osc down and another up). If that is possible, maybe you can write a cool sequence for it on the polyend tracker mini alternating between the timbres. Anyways, any woovebox or tracker mini sequencing this thing and modulating it by using CC would be fun.
