Absolutely 110% the very best dub chord patching video I’ve found yet. So simple and basic, yet leads to some great sounds. And it’s possible on just about any synth. Well done!
@@AndreasRoet I was able to build a supremely satisfying patch on my Iridium the other day using your basic approach as a guide. I was able to layer a bit more into it due to the Iridium’s features, but your ideas were still key. It’s probably the 12th “dub chord” patch I’ve created, but the most successful, IMO. I kind of tripped over this video, so I’m not versed what you’ve covered on your channel. But one thing I’ve discovered while making my own attempts at dub techno is while the ingredients are pretty limited and simple, the recipe for a truly tasty dish is tricky. It’s a deceptively simple art form. Maybe you could dig into what makes for a successful piece. One thing I reflect on is progression. There is not a whole lot of it in the form, yet there must be some. What are good ways to achieve it? I think also we as producers get “used to” and “bored” by what we’re producing (maybe that’s a personal problem 😆). How do we know when we are succeeding?
Happy to know your are experimenting and getting results you like! I agree, Dub Techno is very minimalistic. And that makes it actually really hard in many areas. How too keep an arrangement exciting but also going with calm flow? And IMO the key to a great tune is sound design, creative use of FX and creating beautiful textures. Capturing noises and looking for 'hidden' grooves in the between of what's obvious. So, to your question on when something sounds good, man that's highly individual and depending on the level that your at and how happy you can be with what you've created. Not every groove is going to be a master piece, but some will! And I think it's a function of time and effort how far you'll go. I like to ask the question of 'how was that sound created' and then try to learn it and then giving my personal spin. I am sure you have some tunes that you are really proud of! Even if they don't sound like the pros - yet! 😊
Progression can have many shapes. Filtering, adding more sounds, more fx, more modulation, delay feedback to self oscillation... snd then of course reversing all this! What other possible ways of progressing do you see?
@@AndreasRoet You’ve covered the ones I can think of quickly, but I only started paying attention to dub techno, and trying to produce some, about a month ago. You asked for ideas for your next video, so progression was my suggestion ;-)
Amazing...was playing with my TI2 last night and will create this patch today. Much appreciated! Would love to see more of these videos from you in the future
A lot happened between the init patch and when you added the BP filter at 6:14 and you didn't show any of it. I have identical hardware and the sound is completely different.
Let's try and figure out where you got stuck. Are playing a minor chord with a keyboard or from a sequencer? Emin = E G B. Did you set the filter balance all the way to the Filter which is set to BP?
You gotta give me a bit more to work with here. So please write down the exact steps which you are doing up to the point where it starts to get different from my example.

Thank you so much Mike! Any ideas for the next video?

Great tutorial! I also have the Ti - love it!
Best synth! Glad you enjoyed the video 😎🙏

Awesome, yeah give this a try! What type of videos would you like to see? Any topics that you are interested in?
Du hast es schon wieder getan, das funktioniert auch ähnlich mit dem analog four (MK2). 1000 x Dankeschön
Ja, der analog four kann das wegen dem Sequencer sogar noch einen ticken besser als der Virus.
Access virus b was one of the synths i bought I love the most. Very special synth for that time . Thank you so much for sharing!
Still regret selling my Virus B. That raw sound and buttery filter is truly one of a kind 😅🩶
As I use vcv rn to make learning the basics more playful i will try to recreate this. Sounds so juicy! Thanks for sharing🫶🏻
I'd love to hear how it's going for you! If you hit any bumps along the way, just let me know!
@@AndreasRoet thank you for these motivating words and the option to ask some questions 🙏🏻I will keep that in mind 🤓
Enjoying the review, on that part of synths.
Ganz schön, herzlichen Dank!
Gerne doch 😎🩶
great tutorial, thank you
Thanks man! 🙏
Thank you very much for this tutorial...might have to invest in a virus..
This should work on other synths as well. Personally, I wouldn't hesitate a second to get a virus 😅✌️
