Let's explore the Agitation Function Generator! It can be an LFO, a triggered function, or even a voltage-controllable sound source! www.makenoisemu...
Great informative demonstration of the Strega Agitation Function Generator, and ways to use it. I had an epiphany, reading one of the other comments.. I get a joy, from building patches and making noises, very similar to when I was a kid, playing with building blocks, Lego, etc. I have fun building, enjoy the result, then knock it all down, and build again. The journey is as much fun, as the destination :-) To the nice folks at Make Noise, thanks very much for your fun sound making toys. I can honestly say, I am glad I got the O-Coast, O-Control, and Strega, instead of the Serge/Buchla gear. You have a real winner with this combination. Best wishes for your continued success and happiness, doing what you do.
I'm not sure what gets me more excited to get into modular - creating music and sounds, or how meditative the whole process seems to be. It makes me curious about whether your brain can be in a creative and a meditative state simultaneously. Thoughts?
Definitely possible! One of the reasons why I got into modular...I find it calming even though there’s wires everywhere. I’ve fallen asleep building generative ambient patches.
It's definitely a meditative experience for me. You just get lost for hours. I record everything I do no matter if I'm learning something. Always something good that comes out.
This was a helpful video. As much as I LOVE Alessandro's work, I don't want to sound like him. I want to sound like me. And this video helped me hear a lot of sounds that go beyond his usual vibe and go into different directions.
@@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC what's the email, her album isnt released yet but it's about 12 songs down I'd say about 3 have the strega in it. Since I basically Just got the strega a few weeks ago It's super sick
I spend hours and hours playing with this thing and then every time I end up watching one of these vids I realize there are still new tricks I haven’t even tried on it.
Set the agitation generator to audio rate, patch it to audio in, turn up the strength if desired for distortion, and patch it to activation for AM. Take the top row voltage from 0ctrl to the tonic pitch, and the bottom row to the agitation generator pitch. mix the AG audio in as desired.
Just purchased all 3 of your semi modular systems and I’m absolutely loving them . Can’t wait for next.keep up the good work and keep these very informative videos coming
I get it, but I truly think it's one of the best Make Noise instruments they've ever created-and I own them all, haha! I understand if the noisier videos turn people away, but if you put headphones on and just start let the Strega come to life, it blooms into something extraordinary. It's not cheap, but I don't think I could ever part with it. I honestly haven't touched hardly anything else since I got it, haha!

Absolutely! You might enjoy our video “The Joy of Patching” th-cam.com/video/PtzC29RYRuQ/w-d-xo.html

Just when I think I have explored every room of this noise palace another secret door appears! ❤️

Fantastic as usual! I just received my Strega unit yesterday and will be giving these patches a try. Thank you for sharing, Make Noise!
Agitation to pitch but do it subtly
I've been using this for so many artists I produce for
I love it
Nice! Would love to hear any examples ⚡️

Strega is so deep 🧙🏼🎛🙏🏻
Clean demonstration, killer music and inspiration to be creative.
Yes, thank you.
Thanks!
Also planning on getting the 0 control eventually in about a month but damn if it ain’t harder each day to not be frugal and wait 🔥
Exactly! I can relate :-)
Dear MAKENOISE! This setup + bass drum and make techno / minimal loops... i would like to see a demo video! ;)
I spend hours and hours playing with this thing and then every time I end up watching one of these vids I realize there are still new tricks I haven’t even tried on it.
I love my strega - been enjoying pushing it into rhythmic experimental territory with the 0-ctrl :)
Awesome! Happy patching!

Great patch idea!
Modulating with a combo of agitation + interference is a lot of fun. Love this little box.
Great to hear! Happy patching :D

Hope you are having a blast!
@@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC loving every moment with them .... but love the philosophy and the support that comes with it . Feel the noise 🤩
Helpful ... thx 🎼
Thanks for watching!
I love both the 0CNTR & 0COAST, but this one I will pass.
