Hi - I have a technical question that you might be able to help with. I just bought the Moog Sound Studio Trio, and I I have it connected to a Focusrite 2i4 audio interface, and from there, connected to my PC and to my KRK Rokit 5’s. I have noticed that for some reason, only one of the KRKs is putting out any sound. I checked the Focusrite setup, and there is no way to check how it is sending the Moog signal to the KRKs. I was wondering if this is possibly some kind of panning issue, and whether I might need to add a mixer into the chain in order to ensure that I get sound from both KRKs(?) I greatly appreciate any advice that you can offer. Thank You.
They need a 4th unit, then the case could be set up like Battleship and two people can sit on each end, patching and affecting each other's units (Hope the visual is there!)
Hainbach made some pretty good sounds out of this that could admittedly be used in a musical context. I'm a fan of pretty noisy stuff, but after sitting with this for 4+ days and recording hours of sounds with it, including pairing it with the 0-Coast, a Moog Sub 37, and a Pulsar 23, I would say the instrument's sweet spot is mostly in these atonal washes of noise. You CAN get it to a place where it can be used with other instruments in your arrangement but it's not really what it's about - it is incredibly atonal and takes up a LOT of the frequency range, drowning out whatever else you might want to pair with it. Big fan of Make Noise products and this is just my 2 cents, but for all those watching, just be sure you know what you're getting into. I feel that the 0-Coast has a lot more potential range - the Strega is pretty unwieldy and a bit overblown if you're aiming to use it for an effects send - the instrument should be able to stand on its own and for the price it didn't really get there for me.
@@greenvelvet It expensive. Especially with everything else that’s on the market. I think if you could spend a bit of time with it,you might change your mind. I saw a clip on Twitter yesterday of it in action and it’s absolutely phenomenal. The beats that were coming out of this thing were banging AF
Those rhythmic sequences starting at 3:59 would sound amazing patched with a Moog DFAM. Now I see how I could utilize the Strega to create living, breathing rhythmic sounds within music. Definitely picking one up.
As usual, a VERY solid and thorough review and explanation. I'm really glad you answered the question about the Cocoquantus. I'm going to have to see how they interact when I get a Strega... one of these days. Glad to see you're alive and doing well, my friend. Keep fighting the good fight!
After several years of browsing the interwebs, I finally got hold of the Make Noise easel and I am now beginning to fully understand the whole Make Noise sound philosophy. Thank you for the very detailed breakdown and examples which inspire me to further explore with these machines!
I love that bass-guitar stuff... It's like Throbbing Gristle never split-up. ... and when you're playing the piano melody through it... sometimes you look like you're conducting. I really like a lot of the music you've been doing recently... it's got elements of experimental, techno, cosmiche and ambient... but not simply a blend or copy of those... and definitely uniquely Hainbach. As a test equipment geek... now I've seen a glimpse of your oscilloscope, I want to see it all now...
This was a great showcase of the abilities the Strega possesses to not only create diverse sounds of its own, but also to highlight its uniqueness when playing with others. Well done, sir. Also, great suggestions from your audience. 🖖🏾
I command you to buy as much gear as you possibly can, before the impending system crash and hyperinflation pushes the prices through the roof. Of course this possibly won’t happen, but at least you’ll have toys
Watching this again. realized it's the first Hainbach video I ever saw. Was looking up videos on the Strega and found this and fell into a whole world.
Soooo excited to see an in depth dive into this with you tinkering around with this beast. The video I saw where Jamie Lidell was processing his vocals through this grabbed me immediately and I just preordered it finally as a bday present to myself and I cannot waittttt
Great demonstration with some excellent ideas and examples of Strega's potential and character. I think it would sit very comfortably next to my Pulsar 23 and ROAT.
Mmm... tasty patch peppers 🌶 Great walk-through that answered a lot of swirling questions. I really appreciate the variety of your audio examples, especially looking at the less noisy side of the delay - Thanks!! (Also, piano through Strega ++)
You knew this was going to be great when Make Noise and Alessandro Cortini are collaborating together. I would love to see other synth/music companies teaming up with unique talents like AC to make stuff like this. It's very popular with guitar companies but I think you can go much further with this idea on something like a synthesizer.
superb demo - unique sounding unit - if i had only one complaint it would be, not putting the power socket on the other side, as using it together with the other two units means they can't all sit plush with each other, - unless you sit one above the other. I suppose one could turn one unit on it's side, but it seems like a missed opportunity, especially if they release a 4th in the series. - All that said, i'll still probably buy one. love to ALL, feel no hate
I find it funny how like half the genre questions were, "Can it do Ambient?", and the other half were, "Can it only do Ambient?". LOL I think this means it's an outlier, which is good territory for any instrument put out by Make Noise (or Soma, or Ciat-Lonbarde, etc).
So it's basically like a tiny VCS3, a Radiophonic Workshop in a little box. Very convincing Doctor Who and Forbidden Planet tones. I imagine this would be insane as a background noise maker for psy-trance.
Preordered, got a 0-Coast to complete the trilogy. The suspense is killing me! I love that you consistently play with your food. The Strega kind of sounds like The Downward Spiral in a lovely little package. In all the best ways.
Nice I like your approach to this one.. Kind of surprised you didn't really touch on the various subtle feedback/saturation/crosstalk that are going on behind the scenes in the Strega. Tony talked about it a bit in a podcast and to me it is one of the most interesting parts of Strega and how its design takes cues from the Synthi. I suppose it doesn't matter much though, part of the Strega seems to be to have that side of uncertainty to keep you exploring, and maybe how it achieves that isn't really a key talking point about the Strega.
Make Noise keeps knocking it out of the park with each unit they produce. Nice review, Hainbach, as always. I dig your reviews, because you always use the gear in the most musical ways.
Sounds like the back catalogue of throbbing gristle and cabaret Voltaire,brilliant audio pallet!!!sonic striation and audio perversion, sliding and gliding,tripping and glitching,bouncing and undulating, a soup and slow cooked meal from the spice trail's of the unknown galaxies!! Music meets magic,gold,silver,mercury and lead,music of the spheres, conjured out of electrical atoms harnessed into a small box of complete alchemy. Nice indeedy🙏💃🙋
At first I thought you said that the Recursive Machine was just collecting dust on your desk, until remembered you had talked about the Dust Collector before. 😆
Awesome stuff. Goes without saying anymore cuz it always is from you. I'm curious if the Strega/Make Noise Easel has become a fixture for you. Are you finding new ways to use the Strega within your bigger system? And does the Easel occupy it's own 'island' or is a part of a bigger island? Asking because I just got the 0-Coast & 0-Ctrl and will add the Strega next
Amazing demo & review. Probably my favorite so far. Strega definitely has a sound that is unique...a sort of magic box. I’m trying to understand how it’s achieved....modulation-distortion-BBD? 2 delays? Trying to assess if there’s a cheaper way to get this result as this device is stronger on the processing side whereas the oscillator is somewhat less interesting imho.
A great variety of examples, thanks Hainbach. Does anyone know how the workflow/equipment needed to get the Strega into the Tape Machine and then into the 0_CTRL? I assume the amplification levels are different so needs bringing down and then back up to modular level? It might be that the the tape going into the Microcosm looper somewhere in the chain.
Pretty wild. You definitely bring some more palatable sounds out of it, as where a lot of it sounds like random effects. Cool though. But I couldn’t put 600 into it.
Ramsa WR-S4424!!! Yes!!! I had one for years, best routing ever!!! And don't forget the single click "send" trick! Haha!! 24 extra sends baby! I regret selling it few years ago to buy Soundcraft Spirit Studio. And now I miss it!!! While the Spirit Studio 24 is sexy, the WR-S is deadly sophisticated!!!!
@@Hainbach There is a cool trick you can do if you like sidechaining, yet hate readjusting the Send level each time you change the Level fader of that channel which you use as sidechain Send. So, the trick is: You can insert the jack only halfway in into the Insert socket of the channel until the second "click". And there you tapped into the signal which is no longer dependent upon EQ and Volume fader and thus will always have constant volume!!! Imagine that channel being a kick drum. Now you are sending that kick into the sidechain comp, and you can realtime fade out that kick drum with the Volume fader, while the sidechain is still "pumping" the rest of the mix i.e. you routed the rest to group 1 which has compressor insert. Say goodbye to sidechain frustrations. Yeah I know, you can achieve the same result using Aux 3 and setting it to Pre, but hey! Why wasting precious Aux 3 for boring sidechain duties when there are so much effects boxes to conquer with precious Aux sends. In fact Aux 3 is still post EQ while insert trick is as raw signal as it gets! Of course if you want sidechain to follow the volume of the kick, then you will use Direct out. But you know that already. ;)
How am I not surprised: from the get-go, this module had "Hainbach-bait" flashing all over it 🤭😉🤗 And btw, since after a year and a half now, I'm still not really mastering the 0-coast, not sure the Strega is for me 🤔
dear Hainbach - thank you for everything that what you doing ! fundamental and gauss is in my iPad rack now! but....its a lot out there! strega, lila 8 etc - what do you think -its possible to do something like that on iOS ? may be you do have such plans? what you think?
Lyra 8. 100% Build quality alone makes it worth it. I've been plenty of Make Noise units with an unacceptable amount of wobbly knobs... my Lyra on the other hand will probably outlive me. It's a sturdy beast.
I've always felt it was a shame that the Princeton Tech chip was so slow, the theoretical upper limit for Karplus Strong is like 33 hertz, which is just barely bass.
…… still would really like one of these. Very interesting device. But, it bugs the hell out of me that the power input is on the side and not the back! OCD overload! 😩
Im hoping to study sound design later this year and I am strongly considering getting one of these. I have a lifeforms Sv-1b which I have been enjoying. Can the Strega be taken out of its powered case and put in a bigger case? If so, the Strega and the Sv-1b would form the basis of a rack I would eventually like to start.
this makes me wonder what the next entrance into this series will be. Im still interested to see what a make noise dedicated drum machine would look like.
Apart from using it as a standalone synth, would that work: Play audio on an Ableton (or whatever DAW) track which is fed into Strega, processed/mangled there and the output goes back into a 2nd Ableton track?
I really enjoyed the FX side of this unit. So much scope for gentle/subtle changes and yet some truly disruptive control, no matter what is fed into it.

Hi - I have a technical question that you might be able to help with.
I just bought the Moog Sound Studio Trio, and I I have it connected to a Focusrite 2i4 audio interface, and from there, connected to my PC and to my KRK Rokit 5’s.
I have noticed that for some reason, only one of the KRKs is putting out any sound. I checked the Focusrite setup, and there is no way to check how it is sending the Moog signal to the KRKs.
I was wondering if this is possibly some kind of panning issue, and whether I might need to add a mixer into the chain in order to ensure that I get sound from both KRKs(?)
I greatly appreciate any advice that you can offer.
Thank You.
They need a 4th unit, then the case could be set up like Battleship and two people can sit on each end, patching and affecting each other's units (Hope the visual is there!)
You sank my bank account !

To be fair the company is literally called Make Noise. I feel like this device delivers on that.
30:12 gotta love the Patchprika
can't afford this, but it makes me excited to use my korg monotron delay more >:)
I don't think I've been able to afford a single piece of gear I've ever seen demoed. But it's fun to listen to the pretty noises
I think that's good inspiration!
I want to know if i can hook up my Roland TR-08 up to the Strega
I don't really understand how something like this cost more than a PlayStation 5.

The pt2399 is a very common chip used in delay pedals and synth modules, lmnc uses three of them in his triple splashback kosmo module.

Excited for your demo, this instrument was made for you! (for once without risk of electric shock ;) )

@@Hainbach Great, looking forward to your take on it. Cheers.
