Behringer DeepMind - Let's Build a... Classic Mono Lead!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 бер 2018
- In the new episode in the series where we're building patches from scratch on the Behringer DeepMind we put together a classic style mono lead patch and dig down into some of the menus to fine-tune not just how the patch sounds, but also importantly how it feels to play.

You can hear the finished patch around 21:23, although it moves through a few iterations to see what works best.
Your explanation of the reasoning behind each of the settings really is gold. Thanks so much for this.
Thank you, thank you! Thank you so much for this
. I just picked up a deep mind six and had had a good time with it so far. You're giving me nice direction. I appreciate it. I downloaded the manual. This is much more valuable. Keep up the good work brother. I look forward to looking at all of your mind videos
This is amazing. I'm so completely out of my depth with this machine. I have so much to learn
Oh wow.
This thing is a whole lot more capable than other videos make it seem..! Cool tut, OS.
Thank you - it's a super flexible synth and a lot of fun to use!
Exactly what I was looking for. I think this is the only video on UA-cam to explain this. This is the synth to get for my purposes. Thanks for posting it.
Glad to be of assistance!
5:20 That sound makes me think of music by "YES".
- and ELP...
Nice!! Excellent walk-through of some of the seemingly endless intricacies of the DM6. I own one of these, but didn't know half of this stuff. Thank you, thank you. Very inspiring presentation.
Awesome video , waiting for my DM6 that i purchased yesterday to be dispatched so i was researching lead sounds for it and found your video , good clear detail , easy to understand , subbed
Cheers, welcome to the channel! Enjoy your new synth!
Every time I watch one of your videos I learn more about synthesis! Your knowledge is immense! I've NEVER known what aftertouch was. Yeah I'm slow. Oh and I bought a DeepMind 6. I blame you.
Haha sorry (not sorry)! Enjoy your new synth!
@@OscillatorSink It is glorious! A piece of art!!
Thanks a lot for this I have a deepmind 6 and so far had only been playing with the preset patches but the way you explained it made it really easy to learn so much more about willinga patch
Have fun exploring it - it's really rewarding to dig into the sound design and if you get stuck or have any questions feel free to hit me up. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this excellent video, and others, I just got my DM12 today, and played along. I learned so much, next, I'm going to build a bass!
Yesss! Enjoy your new synth and I'm happy I was able to help you get started!
From Vid to Vid of you i have to confirm your the Synth Master 😀👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
*takes a bow*
Really useful as always. Thanks.
Cheers!
Should be getting my 12d this week! I’m going to go back through all your vids and reproduce all your work first thing. Thanks!
Ah, enjoy your new synth!
You'll love..and find all his vids very helpful and easy to follow
Thanks buddy!
I really enjoyed your videos I'm going to get one this week I got a mood and I think moog got a match thanks for your review 👍
Wonderful information once again, its a great learning aid. Just followed step by step and I like the patch. Sort of a bit Sitarish when mod wheel in not applying any cutoff.
Thanks for following along at home! That's always what I hope for!
v cool tutorial. For leads I also like to turn the porta down some more, crank up the filter sustain some more and then switch legato mode on too.
Preach!
Amazing!!!!!! Idea - TOP!!! thnx
Really feelin the pitch mod/after touch link...plus mono phasing which really makes a dramatic difference in sound.🔥🤘🔥🤘
Yeah aftertouch with pitch mod is real good fun - great on poly patches as well! Thanks for watching!
cool after touch „vibrato“ trick 👌🏻
Cheers! Yeah, it's kinda a standard trick, but it's a good one!
The end result is very nice, almost Jarre'y'.
Saying that, could you dhow us how to create a J.M.J. patch? I think many of us would love to see that. Thanks in anticipation :-).
I world love to, but unfortunately I've sold my Deepmind now so it'd have to be on a different instrument.
I'd want to use a wind controller for a lead patch like that, mainly because I'm a shit keyboard player, but rather good on the flute
Hey there! Another great vid. One question though (in two parts!). When using the effects in Send mode, would you say it's better to have the mix at 100% and change the level rather than changing the mix amount? Is this a way of keeping more of the analog signal against the digital processing?
If you have mix at anything other than 100 percent you start mixing in the digitised dry sound from the previous effect in the chain, so it depends on what effects (and arrangement of effects) you're using. What you want to avoid at all costs is mixing in uneffected dry sound because the micro latency will create nasty ringing and comb filtering. So if you're only using 1 effect then you definitely always want mix on 100 percent on that effect; in other situations... it depends!
In send mode you are always getting all of your analogue signal. The digital effect is mixed in in parallel. If you want to have more analogue vs. digital, you just keep the level on the last effect in the chain lower.
All make sense?
Yes it does, thanks very much for your speedy reply!
Could you clarify the name of the Minimoog patch you mention at 0:40? Not having luck googling...
Here's the original "Goom" patch at around 13:08 - ua-cam.com/video/S_FKXtwqJoQ/v-deo.html
Do not "lead" us into temptation. Nice patch.
Puns are the highest form of wit - I approve! Thanks for watching!
Woah. That is nice as sh!t.
question: having listened to this series of tutorials (a few times; it's so relaxing just listening at whilst I'm at work lol) I feel like the moment the effects are engaged something is lost in the sound... do you (as someone who has spent a while with the Deepmind) experience this 'tone suck' when you're in the room with the instrument or is it confirmation bias on my part do you think?
So... Let's not get into discussions of AD/DA convertors, but yes, if you engage the effects in Insert mode I can hear a change (because the whole signal is going through the engine). In send mode, I don't hear anything noticeable (certainly not objectionable anyway).
Thanks for watching the series, I'm glad you enjoy it! I do the same with the likes of Cuckoo's videos too!
thanks for the response =) much appreciated. that makes sense, and is reassuring!
I have a Deepmind 12D on order. Should I get a Model D “boog” also? Is there any reason I should or shouldn’t get a model D?
No reason I can see - very different characters sonically and "feel wise"! Although personally I'd look at the Neutron, but that's more of a personal taste thing.
Have you checked out the Roland SE-02. Does everything the model D does plus an arp, seq. And you can save presets!
I got these two, the boog and the dm12 as my first synths and they are completely different for sure. I play them both differently and the dm12 is definitely way more flexible, but the model d is so easy and immediate to play. I would love to have a neutron someday, but I think I need a drum machine more haha
I really love your vids on the DM6...I try to mod the lfo shape in the MatrixMod( I do this on a Neutron)but I don't see any change in the lfo at all...any clues?
What are you using as the source?
@@OscillatorSinkThe other lfo or an envelope.
@@ProfessorWes mine isn't plugged in at the moment, but I'll try to check it soon...
@@OscillatorSink OK...thanks.
Hello, I'm planning to buy a Deepmind. I live in Costa Rica so I will have to pay a big chunk for customs and international shipping fees depending on which one I pick.
I was wondering if the 12 is in fact a way better option than the 6, or the 6 will be good enough for what I need, play for fun, learn synthesis, record for fun and play and jam around with friends. I'm kind of new on synths so I will truly appreciate your advise, I don't want to regret of buying something I won't really take advantage of, or getting short in the future (I have a couple of midi keyboard interfaces already) .. Thanks in advance.
If you already have some midi controllers, then I would highly recommend the Deepmind 12D (the desktop module) as by far the best value option. I'm happy with the 6 voices *usually*, but there are definitely times when I wish I had 12.
@@OscillatorSink cool, thanks a lot for your advice and quick response. Subscribed!
So sorry for comment shouting at your first video on this synth, it has obviously been covered. Nice! For reference, this is kind of the sound I was after, which appears in verses 1 and 3: ua-cam.com/video/yvmBy_pSiMo/v-deo.html. After watching this, I'm fairly certain I can get there on this instrument, but any advice would definitely be welcome!
can this do like really simple mono voices like the Behringer crave does? with one osc?
Sure! Just turn off the second oscillator and only choose one wave on the first.
@@OscillatorSink with pulse width modulation?
@@DominicJacksonFilm yup, there's a slider for PWM right on the front panel and you can modulate it with any source (or manually)
Holding down the Mod-Button... Didn't know that ^^ :-)
It speeds stuff up so much when working in the matrix for sure!!
Can you assign modulations to the pitch wheel as well?
Yep - via the mod matrix you can assign pretty much anything, whether directly ("mod wheel controls this parameter" ) or indirectly ("mod wheel controls the amount that this LFO controls this parameter"). Check out my "build an ambient pad" video in this series for an example.
trying to make your voice sound deep makes it kind of inaudible, great tutorial tho
PLEASE
ALWAYS play the sound you’re trying to create FIRST!
Then show us how to create it.
This a fundamental principle in teaching! “Show the car you’re trying to build FIRST “
If you wanted to,learn how to assemble a car…wouldn’t you expect to see it first?
Rest of video is great.
But, seriously dude, play the finished sound first and tie your explanation back to what it’s going to do in the finished sound.
If you want to be REALLY excellent…go back and forth…target sound, where we are now,and what we do next and why.
Otherwise, frankly, not to be too critical you’re just showing off your skills and the teaching suffers
40 year veteran, technical trainer, and professor speaking here.
Thanks for the feedback. UA-cam allows you to skip around the video if you wanted to check how it ended.
@@OscillatorSink
Of course. And, you could at least post a link to that part of the video to save me scrolling around
Sorry, 21:23 onwards too can hear the finished patch, although I also cover some concepts that can be useful in other types of patches too. I'll pin a comment for you with that timestamp as well. I'll work some Blooms Taxonomy into the description next time too, so folks can really get a hold of what they're intended to learn by the end of the video.
Play something anda speak less
This is a tutorial not a review or demo, so I'll speak as much as is required to explain what I'm doing, thanks. If you want to just hear the synth, you're welcome to go watch any number of other channels that specifically do demos, or even watch one of many performances I've done that use the Deepmind.
