- Viewers have been asking for longer videos so I've extended (maybe a little too much?) the examples on each one of the sections.
Hope you like it.
In these video I focused on 2 voices that form the lows and mids in the music. One is a LIP paired with a uJove filter by Plum Audio, and the other one is a Michigan Synth Works SY0.5, which is a drum module based on the amazing Pearl Syncussion vintage drum machine.
You can learn more about LIP through this video by Noise Engineering:

Such a great drum voice it is the sy05. Yestarday i got it and i already love so much. So much Power in such a lil Space. Most important: so easy!
Dude, such a great series!
Mate!!! I love your series!!! Give us more!!
For someone who is in the process of building his first modular groove box these videos are pure gold !! Right up there with those of @mylarmelodies.
Very kind of you thanks! Glad the videos are helpful :)
Great breakdown of your approach
Hi, super cool video! I know it has been more than a 2 year but I love the sound of 6:44. It seems quite straight forward, based on Algo C and tune, sweep, lfo, all the way down. A bit of decay and a bit of width. Also the switches and other settings are clear but what I am mostly wondering, if you can remember of course, where does the sequence comes from and I also see you have Mod inputs on Decay, Filter. Are they active on this sound?
I hope you continue making more videos, super inspiring, if also not, I wanted share some appreciation !
the How I play video is so so so helpful! keep going! it really helps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I watch they again and again to help me build my own system
Another great video...learning a ton here...thx again!!
Thanks! My pleasure!
Great videos man. I'd love to see a video on your effects in more detail as they sound great. - How you use them, how you route them, the different modules, etc.
really nice vids! where is the next part? :)
Just stuck with your demos! Nice to see work process!
Thank you! Glad you enjoy them :)
So useful, thank you.
Great video! Do you have any videos dedicated to the LIP patching like tutorials?
Thanks! I use it a lot and it has stayed in the live system despite all its iterations over time. I don’t have a specific video that focusses on patching it with other modules as it’s “just an oscillator” in the end. You do with it what you would normally do with a complex oscillator, but I’d recommend you use it for more experimental stuff. It’s generally a good way to getting to hear new things the nodules do, or new sounds they can make. Quick example: Set LIP on Loop mode, have the envelope control fold, pitch etc, and then use the envelope on other modules, taking advantage of the dedicated envelope output. For example dry/wet of a reverb, filter frequency, a vca controlling a modulation signal to somewhere else… this will naturally place the oscillator in the center of the patch, where other things are influenced directly by it. See where that takes you.. :)
@@benki._ awesome thanks Ben, I appreciate your input and will try it out
Great setup and video! Love your sound as well! Are you having the fx aid set up as a send effect or is the syo.5 coming straight into the fx aid?
This is so inspiring. Thanks.
Super great sound!! uJOVE sounds top to!! Does FX AID have a clock to sync the delay? Thanks
Thanks! Yes, it has a few algorithms that can accept a clock signal to one of its cv inputs. Then, one of the knobs becomes a clock divider/multiplier which is really handy. I prefer my delays free anyways but it’s nice to have the option
Nice idea about bringing in a taste of a sound. I do some cuing in the headphones 🎧 first but a little stab of a sound adds interest even if it’s not dialed in just right.
Hey.. how u tune your LIP? I use the LI (didn’t like way the envelopes worked on the LIP).. anyway I tune the B side and don’t touch it and leave switch in between A/B .. then I can detune the A side. I found that if I tune both sides I lose half of what is possible with the LI. It’s all about extreme detune
Hey! You're right about everything :) Teasing with a sound that's not 100% in tune or sonically fit, is something you can get away with. This system is much more minimalistic, so no sends/returns, and no cue, and no nothing.
Regarding LIP's tuning, nothing man, I don't even thing about it. I just turn knobs hoping things will just fall into place. I do usually tune OSC B more, because on PM mode, it affects timbre more than pitch. I tune OSC A only when I need to shift the whole voice a different "pocket" in the frequency spectrum. it happens if SY0.5 suddenly makes an amazing lead sound, then LIP has to quickly leave its lead position and make a bass sound, or low perc sound or whatever.. you get it. :)
Hope that helps!
Nice one Benki!
Some good tips! What is the Mimetic Digitalis sequencing?
Thanks! The MD's role in the system is explained more in depth in the first "season" of "How I Play".it's paired with Lapsus Os to function as a macro controller on a macro level. Together they make big changes to many voices at once. Each channel would go into a slider in LO that would make it easy to control the modulation over all the decays or all the filters in the system, or just to highpass the whole thing.
Thanks for your awesome content Ben! You've been helping me to develop my live case by sharing your experience! Just wondering why you run the LIP and SY0.5 into the drum mixer as opposed to the hex-mix and using the Aux sends from there? Anyway, I really appreciate your time and effort you've put into this series. Hello from Canada! :)
Thank you! Glad you find the videos helpful. It’s what motivates me to keep making more.
The reason I’m connecting things this way is, I just don’t have enough channels. :) simple as that. On the befaco mixer, I’m dedicating 2 channels to the FX AID, BIA takes another 2 (more on that on part 4), one channel is not working and the last channel is getting the erica mixer, which has 6 more sources going in. Hope that answers your question :)
Excellent content, subbed!
I'm just here to listen to the sounds you squeeze out of your setup. I love this!... Btw whatever happened to the plan to share sound packs? Dissonant bells, ring modulated weirdness, lush metallic rides...
You're so right. The sound packs have been delayed a little bit unfortunately. I had to spend more time on other things but I will get into that in the next couple weeks. Do you have the link to my samples folder? That's the one that gets the updated. It's in the "my latest project..." video. Hopefully I'll be able to dedicate a full night only for that soon. I'm glad people actually want those samples :)
@@benki._ yeah I love the sounds! I have the access already, will look forward to new content when you get to it!
Genius
The link to your modulargrid isn't working and also you live performance vid
Thanks for letting me know! I've just fixed the links. There was a problem while copying them from another video. Sorry about that
@@benki._ for sure! enjoying your vids good and proper techno!
I was wondering what you used for the hats and ride?
The ride comes from Erica Cymbals, which offers 10 "pairs" of ride+crash sounds. Also there's a Noise Engineering BIA on "metal" mode that does really cool hihats and noisy percussive sounds.
Merky synths
Beautifull!
