Got out my Peak to try to replicate the LFO sync issue, and I think the solution is setting the LFO phase to free while keeping common on. Got all my voices using a common LFO that doesn't reset when a new key is pressed. Definitely a testament to how versatile the Peak is. Thanks for your amazing content, it's always a huge inspiration!
oh duh! hahah completely forgot about that setting even though i talked about it in a previous video haha. that's how excited i was i just hit record and went off haha
To A/B the LFO modulation, set the mod source to whichever LFO plus one of the animate buttons and just latch the animate button during normal use. That way you can unlatch the animate to show the sound without the modulation instead of bringing the depth down and back up and potentially losing the sweet spot.
Thanks James! Happy New Year to you as well. Thanks again for the support. I was going for a simpler darker techno. i got somewhat close i'd say but its not my wheelhouse so anything that i make in it i question haha. House music though? different story :)
@@RickyTinez it's good to get out of your comfort zone once in a while! I'd be up for hearing more dark/driving techno though with your magic groove skills 😍
Around 15:20 you made a strong point. The OB6 is one of those synths where you play it and it sounds huge and awesome alone, but can be tough to fit in a mix. This is why I love the Take5. It sits so well in a mix but in YT demo may cause some people to say it sounds "thin".. Anyway, I will try this patch on my take5 and see what I can concoct.
I use this technique a lot. For me, I initially used it to quote the evolving timbres found in Steve Reich’s pulse works… for example Music for 18 Musicians. Amazing stuff!! I usually run the resultant audio file through an Ableton Group with several layers of Auto Filter, each set to band pass mode. I set each individual filter to a different frequency and add resonance to taste. I then set a different lfo time and amount for each layer of the group. I, generally, am looking for the most important bands. I usually end up using 3 to 6 layers. This adds a tremendous amount of movement to the space. And can remove a ton of extraneous frequency content. If you want to get really crazy, you can add radically different mid/side eq to each layer. Then automate the scale parameter to create further spread and variation on each layer… This takes some experimentation but can really make a single sound have a crazy amount of movement without it sounding too muddy or busy… Been watching and for a long time. Appreciate all your vids. hHappy New Year, duder!!!
I just figured out how to assign a channel on my 707 to my iPhone, now i have all the ios synth apps available, controlled via midi by the 707, and the audio is sent to a channel/fader on the 707. The possibilities are endless, lol, the cliche is rea! Exploring synthesis is fun!
Beautiful patch! I think the reason it's not sounding right in the song is that the way the finished pulsation of the peaks output isn't rythmically lining up with the bpm of the rest of the track. Add in some side chaining would also probably help a lot also!
I just traded my OB-6 for a summit - such a beast. Also when you said twin peaks it reminded me of someone’s comment somewhere on how Novation missed a golden opportunity not calling Summit “Twin Peaks” 😆
You seem to put down your work lately, probably a sign of growing up and realizing how many people make awesome music but not only is yours great, lots of people would give everything to be you so stay confident
I don't even care about the Peak [Rev2 is my poly] but I do enjoy kicking it with Ricky and listening to his knowledge and workflow ideas! Thanks, for the mood and atmosphere.
"This is so bad it sounded way better earlier" *proceeds to play an ultravibey banger* Awesome patch, awesome video and a really cool song snippet Ricky
not sure if the peak have this feature but in the deepmind you can have this "global" lfo thing and a separate option to key sync, so the lfo doesn't reset on each key press. thanks for the tip !
Can get more control by using some old fashioned overdubbing! Record those blocked chords, then overdub some higher/lower parts on another take+track. Then you can line up those blips nicely
Let‘s see if I understood the topic correctly: Adding a yes/no setting for the LFO2 being reset by key strokes (or not) would be appreciated with the next Firmware update 🙃
Hi Ricky. I always love to watch and recreate your videos and the wonderful patches for the peak / summit. Much more of it, please! Have a summit at home at home. Why are there no patches for Peak / Summit from you for the component software or in another way? Would be great to look what you do in there and play with them...
leave the sync on and multitrack the part, adding whatever notes you don't want to reset and interrupt the LFO contour on separate passes, maybe? That will also give you an easy way to mix levels of the different notes in the chord after the fact. But I also kind of dig those plinky-plinkies being out of sync. And the track sounds cool. No need to apologize or be embarrassed about the track.
So I’ve been considering a peak and a summit as poly synth options. If I wanted to do the peak, is there a way to link two peaks together later to get 16 voices like a summit or is this just not doable and inefficient?
No you can't link two or more Peaks. If only some sort of software voice allocator could send part of the keypresses to one Peak and part to another. But this two Peaks wont be synced in any way, so you will have to duplicate patches (with Components software or by hands).
Ahh, good ol' LFO gate reset troubles. I know it probably feels like cheating, but...have you considered multi-tracking the part that Osc 3 is doing here? Seems like it might be a bit easier to tackle if you decouple it from the rest of the patch and make it into its own thing. Happy new year!

Perfect hangover cure
"It sounded way better earlier" The absolute bane of my existence :D
More peak and pro3 videos. Can’t get enough
Sounds like the beginning of Music for 18 Musicians
i love when you show us what you do with the peak. it's my favorite synth i don't have!
Happy New Years Ricky, that patch you created was just incredible!!!! I will have to reference this video when I purchase some hardware synths!!!!
Peak master! Will try this !
This vid also reminds us of what a great mono voice synth the Peak is. Really enjoyed this ramble Ricky.
Heard lot of bad stuff about Peak
@@antidegenerates7449 like what? asking cuz I was thinking of getting one
@@zdrkp absolutely loving mine!
Happy new year Ricky
Happy new year!
Just stumbled upon this video, you are awesome, thank you for explaining things so chilled and well!
Yo-I-made-this-cool-patch videos are my favorite Ricky Tinez videos. This one is right up there.
Twin Peaks on the Peak, get down with your badalamenti self!

Doctor, I just watched this video from Ricky. I understood every word.
Do I have to be worried about myself?
“Don’t worry, you are perfectly healthy.”
I actually really dig your demo track you showed it's right up my street! Great vid as always! Happy new year dude!!
Thanks James! Happy New Year to you as well. Thanks again for the support.

This is awesome, thanks for uploading. The Peak is such a fantastic piece of gear.
What a lovely patch you just did ! You took my heart away ❤

Very nice. Reminds me of Rival Consoles - Pulse of Information
Very nice my dude. Also that house beat was actually a bop.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, MAKE IT BETTER THAN THE LAST!
Love this patch! Sounds incredible
Happy new year!
Good old twin peaks. Showing our age here lol
Thanks for the idea! :)
Happy New Year!
Ah, perfect way to ring in the New Year 😌
Edit: also the term you were looking for is 'Phase'
i know! i said it to myself in the editing room hahaha. i hate that. Thank you!
Beautiful patch. The part while you improvised a bass is a solid base for a beautiful low tempo dark track.
The tune sounded awesome 👌
Beautiful patch!
I think the reason it's not sounding right in the song is that the way the finished pulsation of the peaks output isn't rythmically lining up with the bpm of the rest of the track. Add in some side chaining would also probably help a lot also!
Seems like you need an ability to turn off the retrigger of the lfo
Ooh! Now I want to try something like this in my Argon8 now!
Finally got around to uploading my first music focused video - hugely inspired by your channel! :)
Cool patch!!!!
Great video! Inspired use of the Octaves waveform… gonna try messing with this on my Summit to achieve “pseudo shimmer” effects. Very cool.
I just traded my OB-6 for a summit - such a beast. Also when you said twin peaks it reminded me of someone’s comment somewhere on how Novation missed a golden opportunity not calling Summit “Twin Peaks” 😆
Nice one Ricky and Happy new year.
That's a great patch! I thought it sounded good even with the LFO running out of sync, even if that's what you were trying to avoid.
You seem to put down your work lately, probably a sign of growing up and realizing how many people make awesome music but not only is yours great, lots of people would give everything to be you so stay confident
Great video 👍🏾 love that sound 👏🏾👏🏾

Awesome patch, awesome video and a really cool song snippet Ricky
If only N’Sync had this type of weaponry.
Those AIAI headphones are remarkable. Thanks for the tip off. Unbelievable product.
Which model?
@@CatmanJimbo wireless ultra low latency
@@DespairQuietlyPlease Thanks!

12:49 “loser” ….be kind, Ricky. 😌
very hypnotizing patch.
You are way too hard on yourself, that patch that you seem to think it’s not great, it’s actually really freaking great!!!
Can get more control by using some old fashioned overdubbing! Record those blocked chords, then overdub some higher/lower parts on another take+track. Then you can line up those blips nicely

Damn, I want a Peak...
Then go for it! It is a truly wanderful synth!
i actually pretty much like that short track example at beginning :-)
Those sounds reminded me album Oxygene by Jean-Michelle Jarre 😊
Cool, I'm going to try it on my MI Shruthi.
Nice patch bro for sure
That sl mk3 is so lovely. A bit wonky setup, but great.
Let‘s see if I understood the topic correctly: Adding a yes/no setting for the LFO2 being reset by key strokes (or not) would be appreciated with the next Firmware update 🙃
This feature already exists from the very first OS.
I suppose you have to multi track it. Time to do something similar on my pro3

I never saw you use the hydra synth anymore... What a shame... Anywhoooo great hanging out, like always. Peace

I went with a udo super 6 for my first poly, been in love with it! It’s expensive though soooo there’s that lol
You mean you want Twin Peaks? 😀
You’d also be missing the extra filter on the summit
I’d personally recommend the hydra synth for a poly synth. So many possibilities in that box

Is this the Bob Ross of audio?
hey ricky, awesome video. i wonder, have you been able to try out the waldorf iridium?
When u gunna drop a Peak pack on Components for us? ;)
Tell us the mail polish story. 😜
My Moog XL might do an approximation
Can I connect midi keyboard with USB? And what USB cable do I need? I'd use midi but I dont have any mini cables.
Is that wave shape just one of the preloaded shapes? Or is it one you made or uploaded with the editor?
Thanks', cool patch but can you repeat it on the Sequential Take 5?
What's the controller you're using there?
So is there a way to have the LFO not reset, but also be in sync? Like if I play a chord, and then come in with a higher note a bit later I want LFO 2 to not reset, but also not be out of sync with all the other voices.
Can I replicate this with Vital?
Have you got a spare envelope to use instead of the lfo fade in?
You need a microfreak
and... you are eback in the 80s
Yo thumb got doodoo on it.

Why you wearing hat in studio? Wanna look cool?
Patch way too ill bro.
Dude. Seriously. You need to come clean on that nail polish. That sh*t is f*cked up.
You didnt watch this shit before uploading. Did you.
