Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 жов 2024
- Rob of Seen From Space shows how to programme typical "Berlin School" sounds on the Analog 4. Especially useful for those new to the A4 and/or new to synthesis.
Berlin School as defined by Wikipedia: "...a style of electronic music that emerged in the 1970s. Berlin School was so named because most of its early practitioners were based in West Berlin. It was shaped by artists such as Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, and Manuel Gottsching. Innovative Berlin School recordings were a precursor of ambient music."
You're an excellent teacher. I really appreciate you taking the time to explain the connections and whats happening when you make adjustments.
Training and writing manuals have been things I've done over the years. Thanks for your kind comments.
Seen From Space thanks for your time
Thanks for this. I have had an Analog 4, which I love, for few years now, but I don't get under the hood of it as much as I should. This was super helpful.
BTW someone asked for an explanation of the envelopes, hence my rather laboured treatment of all the different shapes!
Another gorgeous helpfull lesson.
Rob, you've got it. Thanks !
Love your cool and calm exercises.
Edgar would have liked it too.
Is it known if he made use of any Elektron gear? Hmm.
Thank you.

I don´t know, but he would liked the way you teach the ability to create "organised noises" that he called music.
like that you start from the amp. i used to do that intuitively, but thought the way the synths were laid out and the way people had explained synthesis, that this was wrong. but i really do see that it is more efficient workflow to go in reverse. i know that people even take it further and go from FX first. but i guess it just proves that there's no wrong way to do something just as long as it produces the result you're looking for.
👍👍 simple yet so effective. Even the commentary was like music. Excellent video. Thank you.
Thank you very much!
Really nice video - Starting with the AMP page was slightly revelatory. Thinking back, I come now to realise that most of my nicer patches actually started that way!
excellent video man I'm inspired to go right to my A4 and have a session!
Just came across your page after a few years of having an AK and only scratching the surface. Very very helpful and well explained. I'll def be watching more. Thank you.
Very glad of that! Cuckoo's tutorials on the AK are good too. Much longer because he covers just about the lot!

I have been experimenting with LFO and OSC settings as well as filters on the A4 MK2. Impressive machine very powerful box and glad I bought one.
Very useful video. Thanks for sharing.
absolutely delicious sounds paired with an aged-barrel narration of pure synthesis passion
Thanks for doing this series of videos! Just bought myself an analog four and these videos really help! :-)
Thank you so much for this! Very easy and good explanation, was making some berlin school style play around instantly ... wow!
Glad it's appreciated and useful.
Terrific tutorial, much appreciated, thank you
Cheers from Austin TX. Thanks for sharing the information. I like your style!
+Dylan Cameron Thanks Dylan!
Very good indeed! Hope you make more like this one. Thanks so much!!
Eskild Trulsen Have one or two ideas! Thank you.
Really good stuff. I CV my Moog SubP to add that Moog sound. :)
This is so INCREDIBLY USEFUL. Thank you so much.
Thanks a lot man! Great, clear tutorial
Great tutorial once again, dude you're on a roll :-) really helpful thanks a lot!
Great Tutorial, Thx
Nice Video... i didnt checked out your page yet! but i guess ill find a ton of good explantations on some gear...
can you answer me why you are choosing a hipass filter? what is the background of it? before the analog 4 came in to my house (not long ago) and before i watched your video, i was allways using a lowpassfilter on basssounds... probably u have a little expalntation on why better use a highpass on the basssound... or why you choosed to highpass it...
thanky you again
I often use the HPF as EQ to roll off the bass where it might otherwise muddy the mix a bit. Not usually necessary if you're EQing the sound externally, but I like to have a live stereo feed from my multitimbral instruments. Of course it can sculpt the sound in more radical ways, just like the other filter modes.
Since I have A4 my modular starts collecting dust
+Kuznecov Victor Don't say that! I'm about to buy myself some Eurorack for my birthday!
outstanding
Thank you very much. Glad it's useful!
Slightly off topic question but how did you make the resonant, slightly metallic sounds in the background music in the intro ?
I've heard similar sounds on some of Benjamin Brunn's album and have always been fascinated by them, I'd love to know how to recreate them ! I really like all your videos by the way, they're very musical and very clear.
your voice really sounds like brian enos
I always thought he sounded posher than me! Sorry... posher than I.
more more more!
Cheers
