Are you trying to give Johnny another flashback??!!
He still recovering from that experience.

Oh my god, your channel is so good, i've only watch 3 Min, but it's a gold mine for me, thank you for your work!
DAAAAMN I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET THAT ENGENUE SYNTH SOUND FOREVER favorite song of all time thank you sir great ear
man, almost every video about synths on youtube features someone who either 1) can't play music 2) can't really tweak synths or 3) doesn't appear to be inclined to make any music I would ever listen to. Usually all three. (Nick Batt is an island in the storm.) THANK YOU for making this.
James Shipp can’t agree more
Agree with previous comments, great video, made me happy, exactly right for synth/Thom Yorke/Radiohead nerds. I used to cut Thom's hair in my barbershop in Exeter while he was studying and starting Radiohead and he used to work and DJ in my mates clothes shop next door. Makes me proud of him and honoured because I love (most of) his music.
You have a really good ear for detail.
fuck, i love this channel
I actually can’t wait for this! I love the textures on this album
utterly amazing video. What an impressive young man!
Now I know why the chorus of Default sounds like a epiphany every time I hear it. Great vid mate.
I like the synth sounds off the eraser album best. More modern. Probably vst. Those vintage sounds are cool too
Thankyou Joe - i love this series so much. Really appreciate your skills in capturing RH/TY MS20 patches and explaining it so humbly! Cheers
Nice work fella! Can’t say it made a lot of sense to me, but your dedication continues to inspire.
Dude..thank you SO much for doing this one, I got a Prophet 08 and found the Radiohead synth tutorials incredibly helpful.
You recommend the prophet 08?
@@rondover4795 Yes MOSTLY.....I got a deal on mine and run it through a Lexicon MX400, which is great. I kinda wish I had gone with the Rev2 for more versatility TBH. If you find a great deal on an 08 just grab a good delay/verb to attach.
So excited to wake up to watch this with my morning coffee. Alarm set!
Been waiting for this one for a long time!
While I do not understand any of this(I have no understanding about music theory, harmony or anything music really) but it help me gain perspective on electronic music and how endless it is. To come up with such unique sounds on a machine that is(probably) capable of creating all manner of noises is quite baffling. Its fun to think about how Thom and Nigel came up with these sounds and how long it takes to create something like AMOK or Tomorrow's Modern Boxes\Anima.
Nice!
Absolutely spectacular. Thank you.
awesome, thanks so much!! learned a bunch of cool synthesis ideas from this video, appreciate you sharing your knowledge!
I have always wondered what they used to create the lead sound in the song Atoms for Peace. Would love to see it in a future video
Your _Ingenue_ patch for so spot-on that UA-cam‘s algorithm immediately identified the song. Congratulations? ( and sorry at the same time)
Familiar Unknown haha thanks! I’m ok with the fragile peace I’ve brokered with Radiohead’s copyright detection. If they don’t block, and I help get them a little side change, no harm done here!
Great video, now I want a Rev2
Thank you again Joe!
Great video!
cool!
Totally agree on the king of limbs and amok... totally underrated. I just wish I saw atoms for peace live :(
Edit: I never realized how much the ms20 was used. Thanks for this
Christopher Noia me too 😢
Either you are really incredible at sound design or the rev2 is one of the most great sounding versatile synths in the world. I imagine it’s a combination of the two
😊 it is a fantastic synth! It was really my first serious foray into analog subtractive synthesis, and I’ve learned so much from it that’s been helpful to me musically.
@@JoeEdelmann3 have you gotten a chance to try the Take-5 yet? it's obviously limited polyphony but is much better than the rev2 in every single other aspect from fx, to the incredible filter, to the super deep mod matrix (with usable fm and voice spread), to the rich mind blowing vco sound. it's worth taking a look. i love what you do with the rev2, but if you like that, you'll love the Take 5
@@christdolphin69 I haven’t but I do hear great things!
Bravo, my friend!
Excellent video, thank you
absolutely great!!!
Nicely done!!
Excelent work, keep it up! You have put some effort and it shows. The sounds are really close.
Great work!
Dead on my friend 👍🏻thanks for sharing
Cool 👍
I NEED TO WATCH THIS!!!!!!
you are, once again, the real MVP
Would love to see a recreation of the Hearing Damage synth👀.
well guess I’m staying up late tonight... sure it will be worth it
thanks joe I am well
Hello! I have a silly question… what’s the actual bank sound you start with to build up to thoses sounds? (I’m on dawn chorus and i don’t know where to start) thanks a lot if you take the time to answer me 🙏🏼 your videos are amazing..
No worries! I usually start from the “initialize” patch on the Prophet (I think pushing the Hold button and both octave buttons simultaneously triggers this), which is just one saw oscillator with the filter cutoff open and no envelopes.
Imma warm up my ms20 real quick
mini or originale
Same
Just fantastic! Many tsk!
Love this! such a godsend. Q: anybody have the midi for MS 20 part in Ingenue? pretty plz?
As i said before !!!!!
Dawm ,, i wish you were my neighbour !!!!!
Fantastically educational 🤩🤩🤩🤩
YES!!
great!!
I love you.
please make an Arturia V Collection presets pack!!!! We need your wisdom
i pretty much have every prophet/arp solina/minimoog sound nailed in my arturia analog lab presets. is that something people would want? (also the mellotron stuff)
Great synth programming. Btw not sure if you’re aware of it...but if you search YT for “Voice component modeling Rev2” you’ll find a superior method of achieving the vintage sound compared to using slop.
I read about that! It seems really cool! I’ll have to try it soon
i'm always amzed with your vids .... really so cool ... youre a Scientist !!!!!
i always feel i'm watching thing never seen before !!!!! A M A Z I N G ...
thanks (obrigado)
greetings from Portugal
ROck on
Please, cover of Before you very eyes. greetings from Mexico
Finally
3:43 / 12:20 what I’m here for
Dope
that dawn chorus sound is so hard to
duplicate it’s so much warmer on the song , i wonder what kind of processing they did to it inside a daw ?
4reely it is! Not sure exactly but would love to know. Small setting changes can make a big difference, and so can the right effects.
Outboard hardware I'd say
Reverb Machine did a great article on some Thom Yorke sounds. The Dawn Chorus sound is there.
odradek_ yep! I mentioned it and it’s linked in the description. I did draw upon their Dawn Chorus patch for inspiration.
@@JoeEdelmann3 sorry, I'm an idiot and was still watching when I posted this!
Can you do this for the Return Of The Rentals album pleaseeeeeee that would be freakin amazing. Sweet video dude
Great video, thanks. Quick question about your MS20, have you noticed any noise bleed issues? I"m thinking of buying one but I've read a bout a lot of noise bleed problems.
Thanks! The filters are definitely a bit noisy when closed… but I think that’s slightly part of the design. I haven’t found it interferes with me getting cool, usable sounds!
it would be awesome if we can download that final preset from rev2 :)
dedi dedidude there’s a google doc in the description with all my settings!
have you tried making the bass sound from unless? i think they use an ms-20 for that too! thank you for this vid!
I haven't yet! Plenty of good AFP sounds to be had from the MS20, Dropped as well! Probably a part 2 to come someday!
@@JoeEdelmann3 👀 yes!!!
brother this is just what i was looking for. thank you so much. i am crazy about the synth sounds of that record. btw, in before your very eyes, the solo that comes after the break, what do you think? prophet too huh?
No problem! I am dying to know that too. Prophet is probably a good guess, but live I know Thom has used a Teenage Engineering OP-1!
Has this been a jump off reference for creating your own sounds or pulling a guitar riff and reinterpreting it as a pad, bass line or melody idea? It would seem like such an interesting new way to reinvent your sound or your approach to song writing? Would love your input or ideas. I’ve often thought of picking up something in this vein for some freshness. Almost like taking a step to the left when you feel like you’ve stumbled onto an idea.
Pre-War it’s definitely inspired some of my own synth sounds! I haven’t done a lot of cross instrument transposition like you’re saying but you’re right that can be a cool way to get creative!
Are you gonna cover Not the News? I really wanna see you try and pull that off.

Yessssssss
Great video ! Do you know if the upcoming Behringer Pro-800 will be able to offer the same kind of sounds that you're getting from your prophet, here?
Thanks! I hadn’t heard about that Behringer release, but I hear generally good things soundwise about their clones (apart from business practice critiques)
If you and The King Of Gear ever teamed up…
Mike Boutté David is a friend! Would be happy to do some joint content sometime.
Joe Edelmann I remember having an email conversation with him about thom’s black jazzmaster. It’s listed as 1963, which may have been info that came out a long time ago. However, the neck has binding, which fender didn’t introduce until 65 after cbs took over. Do you think it’s a 65 neck on a 63 body with 63electronics? I know this is totally random, but the king of gear comment reminded me of it and I don’t think it was ever figured out. Just wanted to hear your take.
Christopher Noia I’m not sure honestly, but based on my understanding of Fender history you might be right! Plenty of famous Fender player’s guitars were parts hybrids. The genius of the bolt on neck!
Great vid! What's the shape mod you're describing on the trip/saw at 5:30?
vampiresforesl the shape mod control is essentially a “pulse width” control (which is the most directly applicable for a purely pulse/square wave). For the saw/tri I’m not exactly sure how the shape looks when it’s varied but it does change the resonances/harmonics and apparent thinness/thickness of the sound a bit.
The man has probably used just an OP-1 for all the synth sounds.
tremolo3 well, he does at least at the end of this one live! ua-cam.com/video/Uwd2fAGfpwY/v-deo.html
thom and co. use a lot of differient synths- prophet, model D, juno, solina, prophecy, ms20... its def not just an OP-1
Hey Joe, great content as usual! Just a small question : do you have a trick to get such a clean ms20 mini sound ? I fell mine is noisy as hell compared to yours.
Thanks! Even my MS20mini can be fairly noisy like all the others (particularly when the filters are closed), but I generally just take the signal out into a DI box, into a channel of my Mackie preamp/mixer/interface, and just try to watch my gain staging along the way.
Really great work! How long did it take to work out all the programming?
Thanks! I've sort of collated each of these gradually, usually when working on each of the covers. It usually takes me an hour or so to fiddle with each until I get it close (and even then I may later revisit and revise).
@@JoeEdelmann3 Good job Joe. Very impressive!
my ms 20 has a white noise sound thats always present and i dont hear it in your patches
There’s definitely always a little noise present, even on mine (and with the filter closed). I think it’s just part of the charm!
Will this have the synths from the song Atoms for Peace too? ( I really hope you cover it some time)
Matthew Dofitas not this time, but in a future part!
Paranoid android next?

@@JoeEdelmann3 fuckin dope,
Now im ok (computer)
how do I get the ingenue sound in serum ?
Boi Mesa I’m not super familiar with Serum, but I’d try the basic wave shapes (saw and pulse), tune them close to each other, tiny bit of filter and then add a slow pitch LFO. That should get you close!
