The filter 'envelope' is actually a falling sawtooth low-frequency oscillator. One of the sequencer lines controls the speed of the oscillator, so that it can run at one pulse per step, two pulses per step (an octave higher), or four pulses per step (two octaves higher). This video explains it in more detail: th-cam.com/video/ej0WGEY64K4/w-d-xo.html

@@utdgrant Thank you! I'm still confused here though. With the sequence shown here, if he is using lane 2 for the ratchets, why is there no ratchet on step 2 or 3? I would expect lane 2 to be all zero except step 6 but it isn't here, nor in lane 3. I've followed the workings in the video you linked and can follow that (again, thanks) but I still don't see how it works here. Either way, the ratcheting done using the LFO pitch change is such a musical and neat way of doing it rather than the more exact and mechanical sounding trigger rate change.

​@@heimlichvonbladderburst8348 My apologies! It was quite a long time ago that I analysed the Diamond Diary patch on the Arturia Modular V. The 'magic ingredient' is hiding behind the scenes: ENV 3 is triggered by step 6 of the Sequencer. You can't see the cable connecting them as it's all done in hidden drop-down menus. ENV2 is triggered constantly by the VC LFO, which is running at 8 times the basic sequencer rate. The outputs of ENV2 and ENV3 both modulate Filter 2, and only becomes accentuated whenever Step 6 is executed. Step 6 ALSO triggers the left hand VCA / Env module in the second cabinet. Again, this trigger signal is hidden behind a drop-down menu. It only passes through the output of Filter 2 whenever Step 6 plays. The left hand VCA / Env is triggered on every sequencer step, and so lets through the output of Filter 1 for every beat. Both filters are fed from the same oscillator mixer output, so the two signals combine to give you a single pulse on every beat, plus the ratching effect only on Step 6.

I totally agree. Furthermore, i like the ratchet mode on the Hydrasynth that has a "chance" knob. That elevates it to another dimension..

The way I do it in modular land is to have separate pitch and gate (ratchet) tracks in the sequencer and set them to different lengths in beats so they cycle at different points and the ratchets don't end up hitting the same fixed beat which is boring as hell.

Sounds fantastic to me!

I agree with you, to my ears the module doesn't sound pleasing, some others may like it ... (I will probably go for a RYK Night Rider).

check out early Cosmic Ground albums

I wish Throbbing Gristle had made albums like this too FFS.

to bad that this channel only rips off video content from other channels. This is a video from the official Erica Synths channel

Subsequent 37 is great but it’s pretty simple. Not lofty or deep.

It’s more for non Moog one owners.

@@BullyMaguire4ever oh I totally agree. And will most likley be recommending it to everyone. I think its a great synth, given what we now know about it after today's release. I guess the main offer it has for Moog One owners is to downgrade to it and buy other synths with the extra money. Which isn't a bad idea. But that option isnt logical for me personally.. It sounds more like a Jupiter 8 to me than a Moog Polysynth. Which isn't bad either. I give the Muse two thumbs up, for sure.

Right…it’s not 8 grand. That’s the main deal…somehow the one missed the mark..I don’t see it on stage.. in fact I seem to see the prophet 8 on stage quite a bit not even pro 6 that much so that is interesting.

@@markaprill6501 I don't think anyone is willing to lug around a Moog one haha. It's very heavy, and to bring such an expensive synth on the road would be a headache to deal with. The Muse is so much smaller and more efficient for touring. After seeing so man vids about the Muse, I can now say it's for sure worth getting. I still am sticking with my One though.

Yes?

If you have to ask you dont need one dude 😂

It has a lot of cool features for an analog Polysynth. Cross mod, 3 oscillators, custom LFOs, 3 lfos, ring mod, mixer overload, Lag processor, a deep sequencer and deep ARP. Dual filters, dual VCA. If you want “NEW” sounds maybe stick with digital. If you want a deep powerful great sounding analog poly, maybe the muse?

I think you're supposed to invent the sound design yourself.

Nah this is the goth Jupiter 8 😍
