Man, I so look forward to these. Thanks so much for doing this. I did think you were gonna cover using the module as a Waveshaper on external signals... Maybe next time ;) Can't wait for the next one.
Hey Seth, thanks so much for this videos! It is demystifying a very complex module for me. I did have a question. You said that at 0, the Fold knob should output 0. My unit is amplifying the signal already at 0, so I can't use it as a VCA. Do you think the unit is broken or is there something I can do here to fix this. Thanks!
Hmm, I'm unsure. You might want to contact Intellijel and ask if there's a trimmer or something that you can adjust or if you need to send your unit in for repair. Best of luck!
@ Seth; many thanks for the tutorials, great work :-) @ nodusk; You could fix the problem with the Fold-output? I have exactly the same problem with my Shapeshifter and no idea what the error could be!?
Once again a great tutorial Seth! Thanks for taking the time with all the diagrams. Really helpful. I have a question: the manual says that the shapeshifter incorporates the analog wavefolder circuit from the uFold. But the uFold has a symmetry knob. Is that somehow included on the Shapeshifter?
LeVideo Thanks! As far as the uFold II goes, it has a few extra features that the Shapeshifter lacks: the symmetry control and the number of stages. On the other hand, like I mention in the video, the SS's fold can act like a VCA, whereas the uFold II cannot because it doesn't mute the signal at fully counterclockwise. The uFold II gives you a bit more sonic possibilities which is why I haven't got rid of mine yet.
Seth Shafer True. Funny, I was interested in the uFold as well, but I bought the Wave multiplier II (A-137-2) instead, to have no overlap with the SS. Someday I'll maybe add the uFold as well :-).
whats ths oscilloscope that you are using? i really like ad want to buy it. thx for the tutorials i didnt even knew what module i had untill i saw this
Hi Seth, amazing tutorials! I was also interested in this oscilloscope, but the link you provided is dead. Is it possible to maybe upload the software? thanks a lot
+Ian Hoffman If you haven't found the answer already, Mod B has multiple destinations, all chosen from their corresponding buttons to the right of the Mod B knob. You can select, for example, "Tilt." The Mod B knob lets you select a steady value or an offset to which an external modulation source will be added. Hope that helps get you started.
Pretty much fell in love with my shapeshifter after rewatching this series four or five times. Thanks a million!
sys-hex No problem, glad to hear it!
Thank you Mr. Shafer. Thank you thank you thank you. Doing the lords work
Thanks so much for making this series. Ur a goat!

great series of tutorials! I have the ss and didn't know a fraction of the potential.
+Ryan Hall (Soulier) Glad you learned something in the tutorials. I know I did.
its been a while since i checked in...MORE TUTS! oh man thank you!
+TRaddcliff No prob!

We expect a tutorial on vocoder !!:))) Thanks!
Emiliano Pennisi Don't worry. It will happen :)
:))))
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Thanks.
You're welcome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How do you select the destination of Mod B?
+Ian Hoffman If you haven't found the answer already, Mod B has multiple destinations, all chosen from their corresponding buttons to the right of the Mod B knob. You can select, for example, "Tilt." The Mod B knob lets you select a steady value or an offset to which an external modulation source will be added. Hope that helps get you started.
I really should be digging deeper into my shapeshifter! if inly it wasn't that large!
Advanced noise machine. I use mine only for percussion...
