- Yeah so I was messing around and came up with this. This is Behringer Neutron only. With arturia beatstep pro sequencing the oscillators separately.
Stay tuned to my channel as next week we shall start a full patching series starting with the basics. So come and subscribe and don’t miss a thing.
I hate that time just zips by when I'm playing with my Neutron. I finally get the perfect patch and then I look at the clock and realize I should have been in bed hours ago. I swear it's a damn Swiss army synth.
Yeah definitely one of my fave synths:)
It's a time machine that's work only in forward diretion)
I think it is certainly powerful but the sound is too gritty, exp the saw wave. don't like it.
I was looking for DFAM patches and tips and stumbled on this. Damn, this sounds amazing! Now I want a neutron 😂
Michael Davalos What’ll really bake your noodle is when you have both a DFAM and a Neutron and you make a killer drum machine. Also if you run the DFAM through the neutron’s overdrive circuit it sounds super amazing!
This is @#$@!ing brilliant !
I have had my Neutron since 2019 and I never once thought to use it as a percussion machine.I gotta try this
I have used my mine mostly as a bass drone and Radiophonics like weird textures and sfx tool, and it is excellent at it.
The neutron is so rude and obnoxious. It stinks of vile industrial. I love it. I have played around with it as a percussive too but haven't explored the sonic range as much as you have. Very interesting, the possibilities. I like rounding out the smooth general sound of the dm12 with the grit of the neutron. They complement well.
Love the neutron. Sick patch and demo!
This video is insane, i keep coming back to hear the neutron go crazy, amazing video.
Thanks:)
pepperoni pepperoni pepperoni pepperoni
I don't hear it but i appreciate you
currently laughing my ass off
Now that’s all I can hear...
Lol
Whooa i have to use my neutron more, good one🔥
Banging as per mate 👍
Really cool , liked and subbed
Bangin! Added to cart :D
great jam! just got mine today, thanks for the inspiration!
Enjoy it man. Great synth with a lot of weird patches to discover
Thanks!! Paired it with a minibrute 2s, talking of dfam emulation lol!!
Nice! From around 9:24 it becomes very tasty and unusual!
The Neutron is sick!!
Cool stuff
nice work! the neutron is an underrated swiss army knife of sound design/performance. obviously i love them since i have three of them mounted in the behringer triple rack. neutron = so much value for money, moog can kiss my hiney, they'll never see a dime from me.
Love it
Nice one🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊
Bravo
I subscribed and staying tuned, but I still don't know how to make the Neutron sound like this!
Do you think that is possible to add the noise as hi hats in a workflow like this?
yay!
great👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
great
Thanks for the video! : ) Can you sequence two different synths independently with the Beatstep Pro? Neutron and TD-3-MO for example?
how does this work?
how are the neutron and the arturia in sync?
Hey bud, I’m struggling to link my beatstep pro with my behringer neutron and was wondering if you could help?
I also have a make noise 0 coast and I link that using the out gate and pitch cv to the gate and pitch in of the 0 coast. But I’m not sure how I would do the same with the neutron. When I link it with midi, both instruments play at the same time but I want them both on separate sequence channels on the beatstep pro. If anyone could help that would be great! Thanks
Sam
Ok first you can control the neutron with midi. Change the midi channel that you are controlling the o-coast from to 16 and the neutron channel to one. If this doesn’t help you can change the midi channel on the neutron with the little switches at the back of the unit which work in a 01 binary code so if all those switches are down it’s on channel 1 first switch up for channel 2 first switch down second switch up for channel 3 and so on.
For cv control the gate triggers are separate. So if you want to control these at the same time you put cv gate from beatstep in to the multi in of the neutron. The the multi 1 out goes to e.gate1 on the neutron and multi 2 goes to e.gate 2. For pitch send pitch cv out from the beatstep to the osc1+2 in on the neutron. If you also want velocity you can send velocity out from the beatstep to vca cv on the neutron but make sure you set the voltage range of the beatstep to +-9v in the beatstep pro editor. as it will clip or distort the audio if you don’t. But you really don’t need velocity if your just starting out so you could leave that part out. Hope this helps and feel free to ask and other questions.
Electronic massacre will try this tomorrow! Thanks man
keep 'em coming.....glad you're enjoying the neutron so much. I think it's great and sounds pretty unique to itself....and STILL am having trouble wrapping my head around the price! D: complete little modular system 🤗🎛🐛. i like the last minute color change behringer made too. always begs for a second lfo....but we all got plenty of those. tight idea/jam. i have the dfam also and see what you're doing here! nailed it ✊️☺️🐛
Don’t understand the price myself. Built well to, it is very analog though. Like nothing has any sort of digital control and there is no midi cc implementation. That’s probably where the money is saved. And thanks, trying to show how versatile this thing can be. Only really scratched the surface so far. Lots more to come hehe
This is crazy good, can you explain the patching? I can see oscillators are pitched individually and it looks like osc 2 out modulates lfo trigger. But I can't really understand from this angle.
Also looks like something is triggering E.Gate 2.
Very inspiring! To go full DFAM mode, perhaps you could even feed the noise into ATT1 and control its "volume" with one envelope or the velocity output of the BSP in order to get snare-like sounds? One could then sum it up with the OSC mix and run it through the filter. Not sure if this is working as I'm expecting it to (can't try it right now) but there's certainly some patcharound to get yet another controllable timbre out of this little box. :D
Yeah wanted to try that but ran out of patch cables. Going to try and get it to work for next vid:)
@@Electronicmassacre this video is one of the main reasons that i'm about to purchase this combo of devices. absolutely mindblowing, very well done sir!
i was reading the comments and stumbled on this one.
would you gentlemen please be so kind and let me know how many patch cables should i buy and what length of cables? also could you please recommend cable brands which worth the price?
thank you in advance for your help!
@@21Balee21 I just ended up getting a pack of 20 coloured cables. It was a while ago so can’t remember the make. But to be honest any 3.5mm mono cables will work, you get some cables with the neutron but they won’t last when you get in to the crazy patches:) most you’ll really need are about 10 to 15.
@@Electronicmassacre thank you so much for your help and thank you for the quick reply!
@@Electronicmassacre i have one more question if you don't mind. if i have an audio interface with midi in/out, a behringer neutron and a beatstep pro, what is the best way to connect all these devices?
thank you for your time and help!
I bought the model d and crave and I’m thinking of adding the neutron next, even over the pro one and ms1 because those are classic monos and to me the semi modular aspect of the neutron is more worth it
I’d go neutron. The ms1 and pro1 are nice but the fact the neutron has so many patch points that can be combined with what you have already gives you a lot of patching possibilities.
Do it , watch my crave and neutron videos for an idea of how they sound together
That suuub maan
Explanation of the connections would be gr8 ; )
Just have gate out to e.gate in from both sequencers on the beatstep pro. Then pitch from both sequencers to osc1 and osc 2. You can do this with no patching to be honest and just midi. Just have the filter set to high pass and the osc pitch low then bring the noise up to full and make sure it’s in paraphonic mode and osc sync is off. Then just play around with the filter. Have the resonance up full though. I’ll going to try and do a big tutorial vid soon when I finally get the time.
@@Electronicmassacre If you're directly patching to the oscillators' CV inputs, paraphonic mode shouldn't make any difference should it?
Can somebody explain me this "dfam mode" and what's going on here? It sounds very nice but I don't get the point...
DFAM is a synthesizer made by Moog that produces percussive sounds. The person in this vid is just riffing on the name :)
The idea is it possible to trigger oscillators at different moments. And with percussive adjustments in mind one can perform rhythms of varying degrees of quirkiness on single neutron
K, I just bought a Neutron.
Duuude I woud reeeeeaally appreciate if you woud have the time to make a little Sample Pack with some of that Kick Loops ! ruff business
Been thinking the same thing. I’ll try and find the time in the next couple of weeks.
Did you get around making some?
Whoa nice! Does this work over midi or do you need to use the external gate triggers?
Think this should work over midi. All I did was trigger the oscillators separately.
Is there more?
Have a few neutron vids up but not as a drum synth
What's your patch route
Was trying to work that out. Have the gate from sequencer one on the bsp to egate 1 on neutron and gate from sequencer 2 to egate2 pitch from sequencer 2 in to osc 2 to control the bass sound as sequencer one is just doing the kick. The I have lfo in to pwm to do some pulse width modulation and I don’t know what I’ve got the output of osc 2 going to... I was just trying random things at that point. But I think you can do all the percussion sounds without any patching needed. I’ll have a big tutorial vid up hopefully by the weekend so will go over everything in that.
Sick! Does the beatstep pro sequence the Neutron via midi?
Not in this vid. Just triggered the envelope via cv. Looking back I could have just done this via midi but I was trying to trigger both oscillators separately which I don’t think worked to well.
@@Electronicmassacre Sweet, thanks for responding.
I am super excited to get a Neutron soon as my first semimodular synth.
I was thinking to sequence it from my Novation Circuit which I haven't used on ages. It has no CV though, just midi. Would you say the Beatstep Pro is a worthwhile upgrade just for sequencing the Neutron?
I currently don't have any other gear with CV other than the outputs on my TD3.
Holy shit are you making the kicks with the synth
Yeah all the sounds are from the neutron. It’s a crazy beast:)
What is dfam?
It's like a Behringer EDGE for hipsters.
