You could have just said "Klaatu barada nikto" and saved yourself a whole lotta trouble. Jokes aside, this is great. I bought Metropolix last year. One of the things I really like about it is the way the Gx/Qx expander sends out drum gates that are structurally bound to the melodic sequence, and as you change that, the drums follow. This video demonstrates the same idea within an MN system, but shows it with patching, not just an expander module. @17m35s when the Tempi change brings the groove back in, really nice. These patch videos you guys do are just miles ahead of what any other maker is doing in terms of teaching your customers how the modules work. Not in a dry, technical way, but in a practical, useful way. Thank you so much. I will be retuning to this one.
what a nice patch! if it's multitracked, arranged into one cohesive track, mixed and polished a bit, i imagine your audience could broaden from just us modular people to anyone who likes interesting electronic music. (which probably isn't that many more people. but the point is this is not a module demo nor education on patching nor the exploration of a concept, but a piece of music that deserves to be played out at a venue).
@@SnakeOilJohnson depends on the context. for the small venue in town that hosts a show of weird music once a month for 50 people it's fine as it is. for the alternative stage at a festival on the far side of the hill from the mainfloor and maybe 800 people chilling there you'd want the melody from the right side of the spectraphon a little louder, a little compression to bring the volume of its melodic parts more in line with the noisy parts, a little mid cut on the drums and a little bit of a more spacious reverb than the mimeophon can provide.
Amazing stuff! A textbook example of setting up the patch and then “playing” it as it develops. Love how you’re able to harness randomness into something that is recognizably music.
What a beautiful patch! I especially liked the part before the shake up. I think I could have listened to that as basis for another hour or so. The second half gets to an excellent place again as well, after a while. Very well nicely indeed! I'll be re-visiting this video, just like last week's Netherworld. ♥
Nice job, Walker, that was really inspiring, musically. This track wouldn't have sounded out of place on one of those classic 90s IDM compilations, and I mean that in a really good way.
Yep, one of the best yet, some great ideas to try and create some sub beats, thank you sir for sharing your ideas! That jm at end with Morphagene was just amazing, id buy that track 🙌🤟
Dude! Already having an engageing vibe goinig in the sounds while not even being finished patching, simultaneously explaining effortlessly what you're doing and then playing such a groovy jam. That is really next level. Hats off for those massive skills!
Wowzerz Walker 🎉 DXG pulling its weight here for sure. Lovely transient ACTION! When you patched the Zones modulation I knew this was going to open up extra-dimensional shifting portals all a'round the place lol. That look on your colleagues' faces must be a daily occurrence. You had some crazy-nice drum timbres going in thise last minutes. Spectraphon and DXG a match in heavens. Edit: Thanks again for the Xtra-dimensions in the Soectraphon firmware btw! huge
Challenge for you: Using this same setup, make a patch utilizing all audio outs on the Spectrphon and XPO. I played around with doing this and it was the most evil sounding patch.
Your patch made me realize I need to get more efficient at mastering Tempi gate sequences. I tried to copy somewhat of your bass drum rhythm but since the vid is black and white I struggled with which channels might be mod enabled to get a similar rhythm. Otherwise Great stuff as usual !!!
Ah, ye olde trusty Autechre style patch for the win!!! I like these netherworld jams... maybe a future new randomly dropped segment called "dispatches from the netherworld"?
The MakeNoise crew clearly looked up when they sensed the patch instead of looking Nether. Forgotten but not ignored. There's definitely some poetry in there. That patch is absolutely amazing, but you lost the groove. Have you every heard anybody sing 'get out of the groove?'. That's your way out. Or back in. Almost home!
@@ericcheslak1138 im in Germany, shipping is too much and weird here. Sometimes they hold your order for no reason, just for you to pay. I'm gonna build my own shared system, thanks for the heads up mate!
I bought the Strega and for 599. I expected MIDI . Am I correct in my thoughts that if there will be an update that having the set will do the job? I do love its sound, I use it mainly as a noise oscillator with my Behringer 100;set and I love it! I just received it a few days ago and don’t have my studios completed yet, I have all the synths and all the tools, but Strega costing so much for a mono? I know, should have read it, well I heard somewhere and decided I had to have it! My setup is way big! So if there’s a way to update if it ever gets one I will complete the set, I kind of figured that was why you did it that way anyhow. Peace.
@@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC Is this the Strega help AI center? For 599 I expected a way to have pink and blue noise for my Behringer 100 set. Guess Im just going to stick to using it as a headphone out for muh Behries.
@@TheCubanGiant Strega is not oriented around generating specific colors of noise. If you could point us toward any resource that gave you that impression, that could be helpful. The retail price is set based on the cost of parts, manufacturing, and development, rather than attempting to match other synthesizers' feature sets. Hope you can enjoy Strega anyway!
Wake up babe. Walker just dropped a new Autechre track from the nether.
Right?!?
This must've been one of your best videos so far, Walker. Really nice patch, and well done on the video part. You're on a roll! 👍

I respectfully disagree…..this is complete as is……no polish needed.

Super Rad. Can't wait for them to arrive.
Amazing.
Good groove and then destruction with semi reel back in. Still waiting for Walker to come back from the void!
Ready to see how far I get with my system.
Hope I have enough patch cables lol
Nice job, Walker, that was really inspiring, musically. This track wouldn't have sounded out of place on one of those classic 90s IDM compilations, and I mean that in a really good way.
We see you! We definitely hear you!

Loving how frequently the videos are dropping! Such a fun patch!

amazing patch with so much audible dynamics - Thank you - I learned a couple tricks too.
awesome
🖤
Awesome
Walker, you really played that patch beautifully. Thanks for sharing such incredible music
Great improv - timed perfectly with my edibles.
More please.
Precisely right re: the timing of edibles.
what we're you clocking them too?🃏
DON BUCHLA WOULD BE PROUD OF YOU! AND MAKE NOISE! YEAH BUDDY!
The slow meltdown (meltup?) of this patch made me hallucinate. hashtag thanks walker
I loved it. It was too short♥
Well, this other dimension has a fantastic influence on your patches.
The cherry Pie and the damn good coffee must be available in here too i guess.
Challenge for you:

A QPAS is arriving in the mail today. Can't wait ❤
Nice!
Brilliant! I hope I can achieve this kind of thing with my Mimeophon, Morphagene, 0 Coast and 0 Ctrl
Sickening netherpatch
Walker unleashed the beast with this one

He could do an Underworld-style patch next time
@@larrylevan4242would seem fitting but not alien enough

Is Walker trying to score Jodorowsky's Dune??! 🏜
Fast patchin, fast thinkin, Make Noise Man :0
Such beautiful instrument!

Great patch, proper glitches all over.
when will there be the shared system 2 ?
I´d be on the buyers list.
The Version 1 is kinda hard to get by now.
Still available at Analogue Haven, Control Voltage, and Sweetwater.

@@MAKEN0ISEMUSICMy comment wasnt real. I was being a jerk. That was a very kind reply to a joke that apparently didnt land.
Ah, I see! Well, it always pays to be kind :) Happy patching, whatever you might be using!!
I'm thinking maybe it's time to get @DivKid in full voltage wizard regalia to patch something to get walker back to the real world. . .
