    This video is of an artist who has honed his craft over decades and become comfortable in the mastery of it, being kind enough to open a window into techniques that must have taken years to perfect. Thank you for being so generous with your knowledge Hainbach

    I didn't know that it was called Pinging. I've been doing this in my music now for 7 years by using the filters on the Air Music synth plug-in Vacuum. It's a great analog monosynth and the pinging you can get out of it's filters is lovely. I'm gonna try this out later with my Infinite Jets as the trigger going into the resonant LPF on Syntax Error. Thanks for sparking my inspiration. :)

    Your usage of space seems to me to be incredible. When I see that you’re in a pretty tight space with what looks like a whole 32 track mixer, your laptop, test bench gears, effects pedals, monitors, mics, and all the cameras and extra stuff you’re using for filming your video (that we will never see, since we are always watching and viewing through some part of the setups)? I’m baffled by your talent for managing the gear and keeping it from sprawling out and gobbling up the landscape. You really have a knack for keeping everything from getting too cluttered. I can’t even see my floor sometimes, and it’s humiliating! Thanks for sharing! Can you maybe follow up with Karplus-Strong!?

  • @reggiep75
    @reggiep75 3 роки тому +7

    This is the type of minimalist audio where everyone will hear something different as I could feel my mind, body, soul or whatever it may be, creating and overlaying it's own melodies on top of the rhythmic pinging and it often happened when there was a slight tonal change and the need to fill in the gaps the Juno wasn't filling. It's always a strange yet enjoyable aural experience and reminds me of times in the 90's I had with friends/associates who did minimalist techno music and everyone just carefully modified and jammed to the sound and then we'd find that 90 minutes had passed and it was all drug free. Good times and this was a nice reminder of starting with something like a 707 rimshot and it growing.

    Great piece in the end bringing everything together! I'm always very inspired by your stuff. I use feedback loops with my pedals since I saw some video where you touched on the topic, you demonstrated with a dirt cheap behringer vibrato as the lowest example, and it still sounded nice and usable. I do it with my cheap analog chorus, and sometimes I use Polara reverb but that one is out of control, specially in shimmer mode.

    Thank you for this! This is one of those heavy inspiration videos where I had to pause in the middle to go see if I could patch up a ping in what I have, my MiniBrute 2s - turns out looping the AD envelope was the ticket, and pinging the filter by patching its output to the external audio in. (Though now I'm typing this, I also want to try the sequencer to make triggers via very short gates, and homebrew a gate-to-trigger circuit to just use LFOs.)
    Anyway, always educational, always a great watch.
