Real key lessons:
1. Clock it
2. Don't send everything through it, even with drums leave something dry to anchor it
3. Have fun with it
4. Mosaic is your friend.
Space button to move seamlessly through the different options!!...
yea lol ^
I do think "Transpormative" is the better word, you created a new genre that is both transforming and transportive! Well done.
First video I've seen that uses this creatively and performatively instead of just "sauce" to pass everything through. Great job!
I got the Microcosm about a month ago, and it’s lived it’s entire life hook up to my audio interface as a hardware effect for my DAW. I send basically everything through it now
just got it, doing just the same thing :D
😍
Thanks for the rundown. Just got mine in the mail today. Supper happy with how it sounds out of the box, running through the moog m32 to start things off - wow! What a sound.
opening jam took me back to laying on my bed in the late 90s listening to Aphex Twin. Thank you for the music!
You really show how great the Microcosm can sound! It's interesting seeing a pedal that (to me) seems less like something you'd put on a pedalboard and more like a desktop piece. It's one of many things on my wishlist, lol.
I was so lucky to get my hands on this "pedal" last year. It's bar none my favorite musical accessory in my studio.
wow - the way it processes drums is game changing ! Thanks so much for showing that ! Imagine if every Rominimal artist had this !
you called it -- the transpormative fower on this thing is incredible. great demo!
I'm composing music for a film and this duo is a perfect idea generator. Thanks, Jeremy!
ordered the microcosm a couple of weeks back and eagerly waiting for it to arrive in dezember. the digitakt was on and off my wishlist for a while now. i started to built a dawless jam setup last week looking for a centerpiece. i came back to watching digitakt tutorials. suddenly you upload this video and i am sold haha ordered the digitakt and it should arrive next week and now i am sitting here like a five year old on xmas day getting more and more excited with every digitakt video i watch :D in german we have a word for it called “vorfreude”. best feeling!
Microcosm in form factor, Macrocosm in sonic possibilities. Kinda want this thing a lot, a lot, now. Def picked the right person to show off what this pedal can do, too. Great stuff, Jeremy.
It is so lovely to see you jam around with it laughing :D
Just heartwarming & fun to watch in these times.
20:04 Damnn thats so sweet how it basically creates a vocal pad, as if it was an instrument that was programmed in your track. It fits brilliantly without being too much. Really fucking beautiful.
This needs to be a euro module. Imagine CV inputs (with attenuvertors) all over this
That would be sick !
Yesss
Beads covers some of the more wild stuff. Sounds like this has a better reverb though.
Yeah, this would make way more sense with CV control & clock/BPM sync. A pedal seems like a bizarre choice of format.
I think the magic of Microcosm is the unknown parameters. You just have to discover with it. If it were a module, it'd be cool, but totally a different thing!
Sounds amazing.This pedal doesn’t need advertising.Your music also sounds great without the microcosm.
Endorsed
Thanks for the excellent exploration into the Microcosm Jeremy. Really got me interested in this now, it’s a seriously sweet box of tricks, seems like it would be a very well utilized piece of kit in any studio/ set up. Think it’s time to order !
Now I see why people really like it. I haven't done much with midi yet, but this just might add a reason...
Granular beat cat at the end was just what that needed. 😋
Granular beat cat be vibing
yes! amazing video as ever, Jeremy! Like you sort of touch on, I'm ready for a spiritual sequel to this video, maybe on the Octatrack, using the looper and MIDI CCs for fun (and profit)
Excellent. I've been wanting to hear beats through any of their pedals, really. This delivers lol . Thank youuuuu
The microcosm makes everything sound so good. Can't wait to get the chance to mess around with it one day
What a great video! Thanks! I absolutely love my Microcosm 🚀
Dude, that was beautiful!
I recently got my MC. I really like how it sounds in all the demos, but it’s actually a lot harder to use than I thought. Gotta put that time in to get to know the different effects. Lots of fun to play with though!
Seems like the kind of pedal that is purpose-built for the Octatrack's Cue-out, but I would never have considered using the Digitakt's panning to achieve something similar. Pretty rad, Jeremy.
That's where it's connected at my house.
Coolness❤ Love the rythmic alien tounge sticks effect!
fantastic demo. first one i've heard where the microcosm has been clocked and it's very cool. lots of wishy washy ambient demos around, but clocking turns it into a badass glitchy rhythm machine!
Great demo. That outro was just beautiful!
this video was instantly inspiring. cheers jeremy!
Thanks for jamming with this. Just bought one. 🎉
The microcosm presents such a dilemma. It's gorgeous. It sounds so unique and distinct! It's frustrating being a producer hearing it all over the place, but at the same time. It's damn pretty, and the general audience doesn't care. The microcosm will be kinda like the Korg Triton in the 2000's. Really iconic, almost over used, but damn good regardless!
I'm sold!
the only frustrating part for me is the price.
like clouds in eurorack.
@@xsm5525 the price is really not that bad for a quality stereo pedal with 11 different, great unique effect types, 4 awesome reverb types, a nice filter, several other great controls, midi connectivity and a fantastic looper.
Compare to buying a Red Panda Particle + nice stereo multi-reverb + nice looper... and that won’t even get you close to what MC can do.
@@xsm5525 the reverb is average for the pricepoint.
@@mrblablablabla yeeh true
your tunes are just amazing ! mind blowing
That sounds so good. Thanks for sharing!
I have had one on Pre-Order, I am excited to play it with my Moog Analog setup!
I've had this since spring. A much needed video. Now I have to put it on the mixer send. Need to try vocals.
I was typing “automatic DNTEL simulator” when you said instant DNTEL lmao
Your gear vids are so good for not just showing that you can make something cool with a device, but the device can be super fuckin’ interesting and golly there’s so many sounds out there. Thanks for drawing the rest of the owl for us
DNTEL jam at the end. Damn, Jeremy. Stealing my heart.
got one for my guitar and synths. so much fun!
Great stuff as usual! Since you asked at the end, i'm using the Microcosm as a best buddy for the Soma Labs Lyra-8 synth, lending lovely textural atmosphere (and sometimes actual cohesion!) to my consistently-chaotic explorations into alternate dimensions of the sonic unknown 🤯🌌
I don't have one but have loved every video I've seen on this thing. I'm a sucker for anything ambient and this sounds gorgeous.
It's also maybe the most beautiful physical design I've seen in a pedal.
A wonderful video, thank you, beautifully explained 🎉
This is the first time the microcosm has ‘WOWED’ me. Such a smart idea to hard pan the samples and run the R channel as a send to the pedal!
Yeah, I’m impressed with this simple but powerful routing and hard panning. Definitely plan to utilize this method.
Dammit Jeremy. Now I gotta put my wishlist on hold and buy this NOW!!! ....great video as always. 🙌
Great demo Red. Thanks
omg I really love that jam at 18:24 and how you bring the bass and drums back in 😍
Wow great video. I bought the padal a couple of weeks ago because I thought there was something uniq about this pedal, but I had no idea it could do this wicked stuff ( I allso didnt midi sync YET! ) Thanks for this fantastic video.
Fantastic this Hologram M. Very nice demo.
Wonderful box. It's really helped with writer's block; it's a true happy accident machine. Worked well with the Pro 2.
"The rest of the owl" is a surprisingly accurate phrase for music production, isn't it.
The drum parts are fun. Thats a great use for it.
Very cool demo and awesome music on Spotify. Keep on!
tnx mate - that microcosm on deep house really opened my eyes for once and for all at how Phobos Records and guys like Rausschaus and Peter Groskreutz did all these sounds that I didn't understand at first, but there it is. I know my next purchase.
This sounds great. Thanks for this video, which is intended a bit different to others. 👍
I would love to see more videos with the microcosm. I am not a musician enthusiast but this makes audios experiences so good that it makes me want to buy one of theses to try it by myself, unfortunately its not available in my country 😢. Anyway I loved your jam and it makes me another follower of your work. Great video! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wow. That was cool. Going to have to use my Microcosm more.
Thanks for the panning/routing inspiration! 1 neat trick is that you can mix in a smidge of select perc tracks by adding a bit of the other channel back in when desired. Automate the panning with an LFO for rhythmic fx send action.
great outro jam!
The intro sequence makes me think of the "the Cure" which is a good thing 🔥
mine arrives Monday. Very stoked
I have watched a bunch of videos about Hologram's Microcosm and I love the things we can do with it. I can see it in home recording and maybe even in a studio where you don't have to pay per hour. However, it's not suitable for live performance. It needs an option to store settings as named presets for that and of course that needs an illuminated display.
i love this pedal and use it with our Rytm MK 2 with a mackie mixer as a send effect...so i route certain sounds to the Microcosm dub style...this video was great never knew about the different reverbs!
Hey how did you route that?
Génial ce bidule !!! 😀
The Microcosm is #1 on my guitar system acquisition list. I KNOW I will be happy with it.
Great call with the Dntel sounds. Your guitar loop also makes me think of Bibio.
oh god Jeremy please do not tempt me to buy a microcosm, my wallet can't take much more
Too late.
I’m Beyond Tempted. lol.
For real. Just bought it, finally!! Little behind everyone else but can’t wait to explore this pedal!
My brother in Christ, heaven is for the poor and the mean; take my money lmao
I picked up the H9 and now this has me drooling…
I love what this pedal does so much!! Hologram recently sold their 10,000th (I got #292) Microcosm!! This is a cool tutorial. So many others don’t seem to know how to explain this beast.
My pedal is number 9,998! :D
Is the number the same as the serial number? I have 5324! Got it used though, so only a few months ago
13076 here, and mine is used, and they just dropped a new batch online!!
This is fantastic! As an older person, (65) just getting into synths so my mind stays sharp, and I love electronic music, how do these work together and with synths? I just bought a grandmother and a rev2.
Would it be overkill to add these two pieces of gear to create soundscapes and longer more complex sequences?
sounds to me like a very expensive but great idea
Not overkill, it’s would be amazing fort that, If u want textures go for it, microcosm is amazing, and if u want alternative you have chase bliss audio who make thermae, it’s phenomenal
@@1eidji652 ok great. I’m pretty pumped about all this. I feel like I’m 25 again.
Definitely get the digitakt
perfect
You ROCK Jeremie 🙏
Every time I come across your videos, I have to get my productions up and running. Just know you inspire me to experiment and be better at what I do.
Thx 4 the upload 😍
Good bless Red Means Recording!! thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge
Gosh I would love one of the microcosm.
Great video
Yeah so I got midway through this, paused, and ordered a microcosm. And yes - it's gooood.
It's so good
sounds killer with the drums
Right!?!
You can’t be making videos this chill and fun because then i want to BUY THINGS
5:12 "This is kind of a magic knob"
Aren't we all
gold right here!
I absolutely need a several hour mix of stuff like @15:32 that was so tight lol
Mine is hooked up to my DAW on an Aux track so I can send anything to it. I have to admit I didn't totally connect with the Microcosm at first, but once I started playing with the phrase looper I fell in love. I'm surprised you didn't use the looper at all in this video... it really lets you stack the weirdness!
Thanks for this, I’m not clicking with mine either and have yet to try the looper.
@@jaguarvssnake try recording a loop; then shift the loop time slower or faster; then reverse it; then add another layer; then change the speed again; reverse again; and once you have gone totally crazy with layers and time changes, move the loop from post to pre so you can run the whole thing through the effects chain again. Chef’s kiss.
I will!!
This is wonderful, thank you. I've watched this 3 times now in anticipation for mine to arrive haha. Side note: what cables are those?
Gls audio on Amazon
Brilliant
Holy shit you sell this well. What a great little device.
Druuuums please 😆 I've been looking for an fx pedal/reverb unit for eons I was going to build one but then I saw this a few months ago and now these videos have convinced me that I am looking at what my mind wanted and music needs
Any device that makes Jeremy giggle like a school girl is a winner in my book! Meanwhile I’m using the Microcosm to empty my wallet and it worked amazingly well, now I gotta wait for March’s batch. :/
Mine from the March batch is out for delivery so they are already shipping.
@@Ryanhullphotography thanks for the info. I bought mine last week so I know I’m at the bottom of the delivery pile. :(
just hope i can get my hands on the microcosm one day !
Damn that thing sounds huge, I want one.
Damn good demo
That was outstanding- you music is 2nd to none ❤🙏
Just draw the damn owl.... but, what if I lusted after hard to get gear instead!?!? Beautiful work, seriously. Hope to get my hands on one in the not too distant future.
I use it for everything: on my Eurorack rig (end of chain), Circuit Tracks, and my desktop synths. It's definitely my go-to pedal. It's taken the place of my Eventide H9 Max. I agree, it pairs great with the Arp 2600 (well, my Behringer clone at least). I never thought about using it on drums! Thank you!!
Im using both on a chain to my ot. Man they place nice together. Use the h9
Such a great pedal! If they were to release a plug-in version of this I’d easily spend more than $100 for it. Maybe you could pass that along? Thank you Jeremy and happy holidays!
UPDATE!!! I finally broke down and bought one. It's on its way!!!! Thanks again Jeremy!
29:50 ... five bonus points for the use of the word "obfuscate!"
came here trying to decide if this is the *one* for my live rig. leaving here confident my dj friends might start selling their decks for synthesizers... 😉
I'll wait for the eurorack version 😁
That first pattern tho 😙👌
Might be the best use of the word obfuscate I've heard so passively. Also, apparently you kinda know how to use a microcosm too.
YES JEREMY!
I need a "Space" knob in my life.
