- Artist, producer and composer Matt Lange takes us on a trip through his pedalboard and his modular synth system. Matt likes to combine "traditional" instruments and non-traditional instruments, including the modular synths because it's like "having a musical conversation with a robot."
Watch in fascinated confusion or deep synth-nerd understanding as Matt shows us how he builds a rhythm using the various synth modules. EQD appears in his modular setup via the Afterneath Module, which Lange says he keeps in his rack because it is unique and "doesn't behave like you'd expect a traditional reverb to behave. It really does offer something different." Matt also likes to use pedals with his modular system, so he adds distortion via the Big Distortion Sound Machine by Dwarfcraft and puts all of his modular sounds through EQD's Astral Destiny to add some space.
Then Matt, who confesses he "loves guitar pedals," shows us his tidy traditional pedalboard, which includes EQD's Avalanche Run, Astral Destiny, Sea Machine, and the Hoof Reaper. Matt talks of his love of 80s guitar sounds and why the Sea Machine is simply "the best chorus pedal." For Matt, the Hoof Reaper "blows me away because of its sheer brutality," while the main channel "retains clarity on complex chords. Which I find really helpful because I love complex chords," Matt says.
The Avalanche Run is used for its "fantastic, moody melancholic sounds" that sound great emanating through an amplifier. Besides the EQD goodies, Matt uses Eventide's Rose delay and their Blackhole reverb along with the God City Instruments Jugendstil distortion pedal at the end of the chain, post reverb, "just to destroy a signal. I love destroying signals. It's a personal pleasure of mine."

Finally, someone who doesn't clear the cat hair from their board.
It’s unstoppable!
That meant something to me too
I just shop vacced the hell out of mine.
Mm brings calm to see it.
But only bc I disassembled everything to find a bad cable. Otherwise, cat hair and tree crud.
Looks like a job for the tone brush
This kinda stuff usually is off-putting to listen to because most people speak about it as if you already know everything they know. This was super easy to follow, it was like listening to a chef speak about how they came about with their dish as well as flavors without being complex while they were presenting to a judge on a cooking show.
we are glad that you found your digestion pleasant! thanks for watching
Looks complicated but Matt’s walk-thru of his sound sources, modifiers and the emotions he’s going for was inspiring and easy to follow.
Glad it jived with you, thanks for watching!
Pedals really are a gateway drug leading to modular synths. I really love how the pedal heads have embraced modular as the Next Step of sorts.
Really nice to see this sort of introduction here! Hope the massive rig isn't too intimidating to newbies.
Not really, pedals you can still play and control, while for modular you can only vaguely suggest what it does snd it goes bleep bloop
This was incredibly interesting and inspiring
thanks for checking it out!
Yeah *little* jamming rig)))))
i have no idea why I enjoyed this so much.
cause it's good af
Hero of the day. With Matt, we don't feel alone.. Me and my pedalboard 😢
Man, I do anything to mess around on a modular synth rack for day, justs looks so much fun, you and Joel are kinda the guys which got me hooked on the idea of modular synths, I would totally be fully invested out of mind just messing around as is...
don't forget an extra case of patch cables! :)
Just got a sea machine and 100% agree with everything he says
love the distortion at the end of the chain soooo trancey
deep!
That was aaaaa lot!! 🤯 damn son!!!
Good gawd, have mercy!!!
mad science.
the maddest
This dude could work for NASA
I love You in no Way home, #Maketheamazingspiderman3
Hectic setup bru
Beautiful sounds, and I love the workflow. As someone who's looking into build a rig like this, do we have any info on what's happening at the backend in terms of amps/amp sim/IRs?
For ease of recording I just had both the modular and guitar going direct into pro tools on the laptop and used the NeuralDSP Plini as the guitar amp.
How much do you figure all that modular gear costs?
He's got 8,000 $ of modular just to create a drum machine.
Atleast $10k or more if you count the pedals. I'll keep this little inspiration rig in mind for my next life where hopefully I'm rich.
I need a drink...
maybe have two
insane
i'm confused.
Seems like a lot of work to get some drum sounds. But cool set up!
it's the journey etc...
He never said he uses it only for drum sounds
die he really just use the words "simple" and "little" in the last sentence describing this jamming rig?
**rewinds**
yes he did ... haha xD
I can't with all the wires (OCD)
Why doesn't he have a microcosm
maybe it's delayed in the mail
Sick video but I wouldn’t call a prs hollow body “unique”
He said that the electric guitar was a traditional instrument he uses directly after saying what he uses is unique.
Nvm. Didn't make it far enough into the video. You're right. I guess it's not a tele, strat, or LP but I wouldn't call it unique either.
U're the guitar guy who use terms "marshally, fender ly,more scoop...py"
First
Lush…….
captivating
I know right!! You have a way with words like me. 👍🏻
that rose was sooooo dirty :o
