  • The Morphagene Soundhack is a tape and microsound music module that uses Reels, Splices, and Genes to create new sounds from those that already exist. It's wonderful. Let's mess with it.

    Man your really just beaming as an artist with this new modular setup. The sounds are incredible.

    • @mrcwalker33

      I agree, you can really tell that you reached the next level since you started with the modular synth... just sounds and looks like a natural flow what you do!

    Hey man, things are rough right now and this video took me away from that for a bit. I was dreaming for a while. Thanks.

    Ok, this is insane. I've always seen you as an absolute mastermind in terms of music-production and productivity, but this is on a whole 'nother level.
    You need to collaborate with a games designer, music like this would fit amazingly within a game.😍

  • @bigkingsha
    @bigkingsha 4 роки тому +1

    This probably some of the brightest-sounding, most melodic, and well executed eurorack modular productions I have heard in a long time. I thoroughly enjoyed this jam/walkthrough.

  • @GreatistheWorld
    @GreatistheWorld 3 роки тому +2

    The thing your modular and OP-1 videos have in common is when I hit play, I have no way to anticipate what sounds are going to come out. And on top of that, you’ll somehow make it make sense? It’s good. Thank you so much

  • @jaygregory8219
    @jaygregory8219 4 роки тому +1

    I think I've watched four Morphagene demo videos and never really got it... and then THIS! Thanks for the amazing demo, really sounds amazing.

  • @gay_milhouse1160
    @gay_milhouse1160 4 роки тому +5

    Morphagene is one of my favorite modules. I lost this past weekend revisiting some reels I’d had saved away. Todd Barton has two incredible reels, one with his shakuhachi music that sounds so good manipulated and reversed. The other is music from the kesh reel, that has some lovely vocal and pads that are so rad to just switch around with the organize control. Great video! Always game for more morphagene stuff lol

  • @dngrhndz

  • @h2g2guy
    @h2g2guy 4 роки тому +1

    Very cool! I love to see different folks' approaches to Morphagene; it's an incredibly flexible module, so coming to it in different ways always results in wildly different results and things to learn!
    You should know: there's a firmware update that adds a handful of new options, for doing things like pitching your samples with v/oct, manual control over levelling, defining the exact range of pitch shifts that occur when Morph is turned way up, improved signal to noise ratio, CV-able phase modulation, and a bunch of other things. I'd definitely recommend checking it out!

  • @lucafrancinimusic

  • @jonaseggen2230
    @jonaseggen2230 4 роки тому +7

    I got MI Clouds for granular fun and after I got a sampler, the 4ms, they immediately fell in love with each other and really enjoy playing musical ball back and forth.
    Thanks for new Ideas I'll try to do with Clouds. Sweetest most melodic demo of this module I've seen

    • @made.online2149
      @made.online2149 4 роки тому

      Might I encourage you to pair a Morphagene with your Clouds?
      ...I mean working with what you have is the much wiser thing to do, but the pair does play together beautifully >.>'' Throw in a Mimeophon too!

    • @jszack
      @jszack 4 роки тому

      Totally agree on how musical this demo is--so good! Interesting idea--do you think you can get much of the Morphagene functionality by combining a Clouds with a Sampler module (I have the ALM Squid)? Seeing a Morphagene demo (also great, but not like this) back when they came out is what pushed me over the edge to make the leap into Eurorack. It was one of the first modules I got, but don't think I was ready at the time and had to let it go as I didn't have room in the 6u rack for both the M and Clouds (which was a bit more accessible).

  • @LiterallyJord

    Jeremy, this is truly beautiful beautiful stuff. As someone who’s finally delving into modular after years of being intimidated, I’m so inspired by how easily and plainly you explain patch-making. Please continue to make more videos like these! Especially if you could explain your drums, they sound sooooo good. Thank you for all that you do.

    • @RedMeansRecording
      @RedMeansRecording  4 роки тому +3

    @brian2590 4 роки тому +1

    Awesome video Jeremy! loved the sounds! The morphagene was one of my first modules which i paired with a 0 coast and behringer neutron for some modulation. Even with a limited setup i spent months exploring new territories. I have since built out to 204 HP and am constantly suprised with what i can do with it. I can build similar concepts in VCV rack and bitwig studio these are not as fun and performative and honestly quite time wasting over the simple morhagene's interface. Cheers!

    Amazing sounds. I just don't have the knowledge to go modular. I love those hook and loop cable wraps. I also love the reverse sound . Very cool 😀

  • @nahrky
    @nahrky 4 роки тому +7

    Reverse sounds are addictive. Especially ones with gentler transients bc then they kinda fade out more... gently.
    Idk I just know I have a single guitar pedal with a reverse delay setting, and boy does it go places!

    @DamnHeadHumpers 3 роки тому +2

    Your compositions are really fantastic! I have had a morphagene for about 2 years and I have only really used it for granular and some really weird stuff, but seeing how you used it with your compositions was inspiring. I am not always consistently active with making music and there is a lot I am still learning. I also have have a lot of modules, so sometimes I don't spend the individual time working with them that I need to in order to master it or become more adept with it. Great video!

    Jeremy - as usual I really enjoyed this gear review/tutorial, but there is another kind of content I would be interested to see from you (and perhaps I'm not alone?). I'd love to have a peak into your approach/workflow for going from a "jam" to an actual song arrangement. Of course there is no "right" way, but I bet you've got some strategies/tips that would be useful. Keep up the good flow, bro.
