Two years after being posted, this remains the best MiniBrute 2S demo ever !
And THE CARS, man !!!
Thank you.
Wow! The best MiniBrute 2S video I have seen so far!
word.
Agree!
Same.
i realize Im kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good website to watch newly released movies online?
@Finley Eugene Flixportal :)
It would be helpful to have patch diagrams, so we could follow along. The lighting makes it almost impossible to follow the spaghetti of patch cables.
Same!
Dude, I had no idea I had such a gem just standing on my desk. Amazing! Very nice video
6 min in is amazing. I’d play money for a step by step walkthrough of how you built this! Hard to make out the patch cables - sounds amazing!
That is the most inspiring video for the Minibrute 2S!! I’m totally sold on this thing... Thanks
This guy is a whiz with this synth. I have to spend more time with my 2S to get this far. It’s great to see it’s capable of this in the hands of a great user. I’ll work to get better at it.
I picked up the 2S as my first dive into synths, this gives me way more ideas about what the Minibrute 2S can do on its own than anything else I've seen so far, thank you!
Many other videos use external filters/reverbs/effects so this helps me understand what the brute _itself_ can do! Plus the captions are super useful to understand what's going on! Thanks again!
That patch bay makes this thing SOO much more musical! 🤔 great video! 👍
I got the 2S not fully realizing what a beast it actually is. Safe to say that I’ve barely scratched the surface, and have a lot to learn about routing modular. Sometimes frustrating. Sometimes incredible.
This is the best MB2 video out there. There are others out there by very respected reviewers but the poly synth and drum sounds are very deep that no other reviews gets into. Powerful synth.
The EBM vibes at 6:10... WHOA
inside synthesis makes by far the best instrument reviews. Every synth reviewer on youtube should take this as an exsample.
Wish you could do thorough walk throughs. Truly awesome. Right when I think I learned a lot, i got a lot to learn
An amazing demo and a true testament to your acumen. One of two videos that made me buy this, my first synth! Kudos!
Explains in concise manner, but doesnt go in depth to understanding.. easy to understand what he is saying.. you have to know intermediate phrases about music.
This guy is a TRUE ARTIST!!!!
... i know some sample riffs are popular songs but many that are improvised get me dancing!!! Hahaha. So creative that he shows you how to nearly multitrack with a bass/synth sound and DRUMS! Wow, creative and he understands a Synth!! Amazing! I've seen alot of Demos on this sequencer, this not really an 'introduction' to the minibrute 2s (although you can make music withim the first 10 seconds).. this video is for after you've played with the Arturia Minibrute 2s and want to take your sounds a step deeper!!! Love it
Have one arriving tomorrow, absolutely no idea what I’m doing, can’t wait. Will for sure be trying out some of your tips over the coming weeks, thanks!
One of the best Minibrute 2S tutorial I've ever seen. The only problem I have with it is that when there are too many white cables it's impossible to recognize the patch.
Are you serious? It takes 10 Minutes to try OMG :)
Ok, you've sold me on this.
Really excellent review & demo.😍 I appreciate it, as this device seems to have flown under my new-gear radar. 😍 Nice channel you have here, subscribing now!
Nice, tight editing, my friend. I didn't know the 2s could make so many sounds. You are inspiring a lot of users.
Finally someone using it musically. It was about time!
This is the best showcase/overview of the Minibrute 2S. Thanks so much. This video sealed the deal and I bought one based on how good it sounds in your video and the awesome features that you explain very well.
What a wonderful, intelligent, easy to follow tutorial. I love my MiniBrute 2S. Your video here will help me get a lot more out of it now! THANKS.
Man. You are a genius. Also, extremely helpful and inspirational. Just got a 2s and am diving in.
Mine will be here this week. Can't wait 😀
I’ll be studying this video along with the manual for a while now, a million thank youse
OK, got my 2S last Thursday, still a looong way to go, but you're helping me loads. Thanks for sharing. SUBBED!
I just got mine two days ago. How are you doing so far. I'm an old guy that loves toys and this thing is so awesome. Kinda want to stay in touch because you're new too just like me. Will be good to sort of grow together on mini 2S. Holla @ U later
@@Midi-olo-gist6758 Hi Leon, welcome to the club. It took me 10 days to get something that didn't sound like the wind rushing through an old cabin. When I do manage to hit the groove (rarely) I am lost for hours. Still got a long way to go on the sequencer/arpeggiator. I got a TC Electronic Flashback pedal which helps with the ambient sounds.
@@joninio6542 So I'm jumping in the mini this weekend and I must admit I'm a bit scared. Don't know why. This is the 1st machine that's ever intimidated me. I'll keep you posted. OH I'm open to any suggestions you have too. The sequencer is what I'm finding scary. The synth part I understand that thoroughly. I got tons of hardware Synths. Holla at you later 😌. Wish me luck.........
This is one of the best minibrute 2s videos I have seen. Please make more :)
Hello ! This is a great video about Minibrut 2S with very interresting tips. Thanks a lot ! ;-)
Damn! That’s a kick ass demo!
Man, I watched This is like a year ago and bought the synth, Now I watch that again, and I want to buy second one)))) Just for a drums
Mi e has been collecting dust for half a decade. No more. Thank you.
Another great video from you! I just bought one the other day on CL, but haven't had time to work with it much. Planning to this weekend though, and this video is going to be a big help. I will say to any potential buyers that, this guy is right, the manual is way above average; very instructional. It also comes with a 'cookbook' which is a TERRIFIC set of patch diagrams. It's a hell of a great instrument and value.
Love my MiniBrute 2S. Exchanged a defective Elektron Digitone for it at Guitar Center. Such a versatile machine. Love the 4 track sequencer and the sounds in it. Patchbay is amazing, too. THANKS for the cool tips!
Just got one - this video is super inspiring!!
Really well done review…as I am waiting for mine coming this week this was great to see…Thanks
Awesome video - it really inspired my to try using my 2S as a drum machine and I love how it turned out!
first time i've ever subbed to a channel after watching just one video. holy hell that was good. my 2s is arriving in 2 days and i cannot wait :)
Thanks for this, got a MiniBrute just yesterday so I'm probably going to be referring to this video quite a bit.
Great example of digging deep into the synthesis features of the 2s.
great bit of insights here. thanks much for this helpful vid. I'm looking forward to checking out your others....
Great stuff, thanks
Wow I had no idea this synth could do all this. Great video!
wow this is one of the best minibrute videos i’ve seen, subbed!!
Great review....sold on this thing now!
Phenomenally good presentation. Creative, useful info and sounded great. Thanks.
Okay now I definitely want one!
Thanks for this great review video.
Always love your videos. I’d loan you my Prophet 6 for a week just to see what kind of demonstration you’d come up with. Great stuff!
Nice video this is my first synth got it a couple days ago . I am really interested in the beat making portion. I have bean going through the cook book I can make a kick and snare just don't know how to combine them. I must say this 2s is a lot of fun
Very good explanation 👍
This is friggin brilliant. Subscribed!
Insanely useful!
Looks so easy to use when YOU use it :D
awesome review.... love it!!!
Awesome review as always
God damn, this is the review I needed for me to take the plunge
Also, just buy a keystep and you have the 2+2s with some awesome sequencing opportunities
tibbarnogard I hope you might be able to help me. I’m a newbie to synths and thinking of buying this as my first synth. Is it possible to use the Arturia keylab on this, without using a computer inbetween? Like using the keystep but with the keylab?
@@thames21 Yes. The keyboard has Midi-Out to Midi-In in the MiniBrute.
Arrg, I was going to get a 2, now I have to consider the 2s also!
honestly, if you get the 2S and a Keystep you basically have both
Very inspiring video thanks!
Killer demo! I'm new to the synth world. I'm awaiting arrival of my MiniB 2S and plan to connect a Moog Etherwave Plus theri to it via CV pitch and gate to use the theremin as a controller. Is that a simple setup? Thank you.
"Double like" button required for videos like this one
Thank you so much!!
How is he using the delay? It’s in the DAW, right? Is it automated there? Does no multitrack mean the delay is on both synth voices? How to multitrack? Record them one by one in the DAW? It has a great sound and I’d like to know how to do that!
The oscillators sound very nice
Extraordinary! any chance to get the recipe in one of those blank preset sheets?, thanks
i like my 2s but im new to synthesis and alot of this is beyond my abilities so far. I've managed to make a couple simple basslines with it and that is all.
Spend more time with it, turning all the knobs. Eventually new ideas will flow!
This video is soooo good.
Would you do a video with only drum secuences please!!
Do you have a routing plan for the calbes?
Hi! Great video!
Could you tell me if you can use the Keystèp or other keyboard to insert notes (step rec or realtime rec) into 2S sequencer?
Thanks a lot!
I just used the Minibrute 2S for sequencing. No external controller used.
@@insidesynthesis so many reviewers and not one been able to answer this question...
please use different colors for your patch cords if possible.
hello, very nice review and kick ass sequences , I would like to sync this device to send out midi clock to my delay, can you tell me how to do it? do I need to hook MS2S to MIDI CENTER? thank you very much
How do you sync the TR8 with Minibrute2s using the Midi? I have midi out on my TR8 going into the midi in of the Minibrute 2S and the brute wont play. Is there a setting in the Minibrute2s that I need to do? please help.
Amazing review. Great sounds too. Question tho, is the riff/track from around 6:00 original?
Yup, that's original
This is just sick....
Best demo, seems so easy! Haha
cant see how to patch the cables, all are the same color and together
Great!
Sorry for my noob question but where did the drumsounds come from? Does it have like a samplebank or did it come from a daw or other hardware? Wanna buy my first instrument and thats my fav so far.
All sounds, including drums, come from the Minibrute 2S, with the exception of added delay FX around 2:30 for one bit and for the very last part.
If you're looking for drums, I'd look to a dedicated drum module unless you're pretty experienced. It's possible to do with a (semi)modular synth like the Minibrute, but it definitely takes a far amount of programming to get them to sound right.
@@insidesynthesis Thank you
My Arturia 2S doesn't sound like this. I am pretty sure it's sorcery.
Get a reverb pedal to make it sound better
To funny 😁
It doesnt work for me. Cant make it to play it paraphonicly. Pitch number 2 dont work, triggers the notes but thats it
Would you be open to do paid lessons on the 2S?
Is there anything the onboard sequencer can do that can't be matched by the Beatstep Pro? A Minibrute 2 + Beatstep Pro is a more expensive combo than the Minibrute 2S + Keystep, but I get the impression that it'd be a more comfortable set up to have.
The Minibrute 2 + Beatstep Pro is more powerful and flexible. It gives you 2 gate + 4 CV outputs, while the Minibrute 2s only has 1 gate + 3 CVs.
Plus, the Beatstep Pro gives you 8 drum gate outputs (if that's your sort of thing).
Try one of this mad Eurorack Sequencer ;) More fun! Use the Beatstep Pro as your main Sequencer.
Did you use delay from the mini Brute2s or did you use an external module?
I used an external effect for the added delay.
Candy O !
How you had delay in the melody, inside in the synth?
I mention it at the end of the video - I’m using external delay for that part and the very end melody. Sorry if that wasn’t clear!
Is this show hosted by Q from TNG??
Quien chucha lo traduce pls no entiendo que pico hizo
This sounds like Skinny Puppy.
can it loop
Sequencer patterns automatically loop when played.
i dont understand how makes polyphony and delay
There are two parts where I add external delay, around 2:30 and the last sequence.
You can get two notes of polyphony by sending using a mod track as a CV->pitch track on the second oscillator.
thanks
Can the 2S do these sounds as raw?
