For Vintage tape machines. I yse old 70's mk 2 Uher reports. Cheap, very solid mechanism, small 5" spools, 4 speed. They are built to be repaired, the bbc used them for reporters. They only have 1 head but they do have 4 speeds. I bought both of mine for less than £70 each. They also take up much less room than a lot of other models. These aren't consumer items, so the build quality is exceptional. I believe they used ghe same mechanism on most if the versions of this they made from the late 60's, up until the early 90's, when they made the stereo twin head version. It's the electronics that were updated.
Honestly, "Olson" by Boards of Canada might be one of my fave piece of music ever. I really mean that. It's 1:28 (if memory serves). But in that time in manages to collapses the world around me and take me on a journey to the very core my being. I do genuinely get shivers & well up a bit when listen to it, and I can't explain why. Genuinely profound sense of being at one with the world in that moment. Plus a fan video with visuals from Cowboy Bebop (I'm sure you know the one. It's still there, I believe, and I still have comment thete on it from that time) which introduced me to the series and the Anime rabbit hole overall. Thanks BoC for that one.
Good suggestions for the Quadraverb. I have a bunch of old rack gear (much of which I purchased new in the 90s) including effects, synths, and EQs which are often overlooked today but offer excellent sound-shaping possibilities for very little money. I also have a collection of $10-$50 effects pedals, which are pretty excellent for electro-acoustic and ambient music making.
120 V doesn't necessarily hurt you if the current is small. Van de Graaff generators put out thousands of volts but very small currents so you just get a little zap.
So true. I have the "shelf of shonk". Broken fx, failed hacks. Interesting looking enclosures from fkea markets. Save them. They don't make sense now. Eventually your knowledge increases and often its a quick fix to get them doing something. Very satisfying. Which helps with the pain of something else breaking down......and......yep...... taking its place on the shelf.
Fabelhaft, vielen Dank! Thank you so much for such a thoughtful response and so many great suggestions! With the stuff I've made in Caustic, I'll take the track stems onto something else like a sampler and see how I can mould them. Viel Glück und Erfolg wünsch ich dir.
If you only have 500$ don't go for vintage equipment. Buy some good value modern stuff that's reliable. New or slightly used, cause if something dies, your money's gone. Vintage should be the cherry on a functional foundation.
I've really missed these Patreon Q&A videos, Hainbach's train of thought is beautiful and I love to hear where it goes. Regarding the first question about using digital media/gear and the answer mentioning the Ciat-Lonbarde Cocoquantus; I was never a fan of the sound of the Cocoquantus when I've heard it here on UA-cam, but then I was lucky enough to be in Berlin this February at the same time as a Hainbach gig so I got to hear the Cocoquantus in person through a PA (in a quite nice acoustic space), and it sounded really, really amazing, I fell in love with the tonal qualities of the Ciat-Lonbarde Cocoquantus that night - it's a very, very cool sounding piece of gear, so YAY for digital.
just had to look up and research that grönemeyer track... interesting combo. the part identifiable to me as hainbach would've worked as a lovely, slightly gooey idm x electronica piece on its own i guess. personally, as you might've guessed anyway, i could've done without the 80s rock snare (and the vocals ofc) but its super interesting to see how your musical approach integrates surprisingly well into a realm that is light years away from our nerdy bubble. any interview x video snippets at hand in which grönemeyer talks about your stuff in particular? would love to see those - and some of his fan reacting to this kind of information as well, ofc.
Yeah Stefan LaForce right on! Awesome Hainbach, looking forward to that video! The Adapting Eddie's Amp Trick video around 6:00 even reminded me a bit of No.8 by No.8 (isn't that a wonderful artist name?) by a musician called Torsten Pröfrock but without any effects/ processing. So I'd love to see if it's possible to create as discogs calls it: "Experimental, Minimal, Ambient" (I think) Dub Techno stuff as well if you have any interest/ time for that :)
Is there any chance you could show us some example of a tone where aliasing is beautiful? Do you find it only in hardware, or can you achieve it in daw also?
Aaaah thanks for telling me. I am actually on holiday and uploaded this on a hotel wifi, so that escaped. But that you are the first after 4500 views to notify me speaks worlds. I owe you a beer/coffee/soda
thank you Hainbach. i just came out of some minor surgery and 40 minutes of a Q&A is exactly the distraction i needed.
Hope you are well Paul!
Be careful which budget gear you reccommend- You may find that it is all out of stock very soon haha ;)
LOL very true
😂😂 you beat me to it...😊

Great list, I'd add a cheap mixer and possibly a am/fm radio

It occurs to me gear selection for tracks is somewhat determined by what is working & what is broken at any given time

Hello!
I’m only interested in your electricity bill!
If you only have 500$ don't go for vintage equipment. Buy some good value modern stuff that's reliable. New or slightly used, cause if something dies, your money's gone. Vintage should be the cherry on a functional foundation.

You misunderstand budget. I mean about 50 not 500...
You are not Jonathan Glass, I answered his question.
11:03 the testicle aspect of hardware :D

Having a few Pints ,,,Enjoying!! Cheers!;-)!!!
excited for your set with Rival Consoles next month in the Barbican! going to be insane!
Yeah I hope I can bring my visual artist - still figuring out that setup
I love these QA videos.
Would watch a Hainbach Kleinanzeigen challenge!
7:28 No way, If You touch a good Electric fence for Lifestock you will be Sitting On The Floor wondering What happened
Well the ones in Germany we used to touch as kids for dares.

I think you have someone in your life who is a very skilled knitter. If I am right, please let them know their work is admired!
Just a wife who is very critical of my outfit (in a good way) :-)
Re: the first question about digital lo-fi. A great old Hainbach video is the cut up technique using a portable mini-disc recorder. Check it out!
I love the C45's! If you do end up streaming them could you stream them via youtube as well?
ppooll is the ttooll
Thanks for the rundown on Assertion, very interesting patch!
I have a question. When are we getting that Plumbutter 2 video ;)
Ahahahaha oh my
Yes Tape Machine!😀
Is there any chance you could show us some example of a tone where aliasing is beautiful? Do you find it only in hardware, or can you achieve it in daw also?
I think this one is covers that: ua-cam.com/video/QciP-fjAMCM/v-deo.html
howdy
I can hear that sweater! Sounds great!
Those vibrant colors on the sweater smell great too!
Idk if you meant to write gear twice in the video title
Aaaah thanks for telling me. I am actually on holiday and uploaded this on a hotel wifi, so that escaped. But that you are the first after 4500 views to notify me speaks worlds. I owe you a beer/coffee/soda
@@Hainbach No worries on the beer, one of your ciat-lonbarde synths should suffice
is that an xpander behind you?
Yes! Bought it for a film scoring job
@@Hainbach nice
FYI dichotomy is pronounced "dikotomy"
Isn’t it “die-cotto-me”?
Thanks, always a problem with pronouncing Greek/Latin words that we also use in German In English
Sorry to ruin your day, Hainbach, but the word "dichotomy" is pronounced "die-kotto-me" in English.
Not going to have a ruined day because the English have no greek.
