  • Microcosm and Chroma Console being used in tandem to create a super dynamic/glitchy drum processing chain 🎛
    Microcosm's Tunnel presets (secret sauce for percussive sounds) track your input signal and do a bunch of wild granular processing in realtime. In this video, you'll hear how quickly Microcosm tracks the incoming drums and spits out weird time-stretched samples and other miscellaneous space noises
    Microcosm's output is going directly into Chroma Console, where we've made a patch that in addition to crunching up the drums/Microcosm also has some interesting time-based effects going on with the Collage effect.
    Stick around for a walkthrough of these patches and a little jam at the end 🥁

    That beat was so good. I just started watching recently and actually just bought a chroma console. This video made me want to get that digitak. I’ve been thinking about getting a drum machine but unsure which is the move. This may have helped me make up my mind on that

      digitakt is essentially a drum machine on steroids, capable of doing a lot more than a standard drum machine for sure

    I'd love to do this same thing, using my 1010music Blackbox. The only problem is, I only have a Microcosm, and a Blackbox. I am using a Zoia as well tho. I can make it do some pretty crazy stuff.

    Great video
    I have the microcosm but I’m a bit confused over which patch to use for best results on pads or an arp or a sequence
    This video told me to use drums with Tunnel
    and I got desired results.
    Anyone has any tips on what works best with which preset.
    Highly appreciate ❤any inputs
    🙏🙏

      Finally getting my head around microcosm. Make sure that if you’re using it on synths to make sure you change the config to stereo and levels to line. Space (reverb and delay) can make things too much for me. So turn that down or off while you get used to the efx. Activity and Repeats are the two you got to keep your eye on. Activity is the density and repeats is how much. I like tunnel, haze, arp and seq for drums. I’ve been going through every preset with a drum machine and routing the kick independently from the mix in the cosm. Finally get some amazing results. Haven’t really tried it yet on synths and keys and I’m thinking I’ll get the console for that but I’ll probably end up using them on drums too! Haha! Or maybe I’ll reamp it. Microcosm on drums are a match made in heaven. I just need an overdrive dirty pedal to make it pop

      ​​⁠thanks for the inputs. Microcosm is unique.
      One day it does so much and yet it gives an impression that it’s repetitive with most presets. 🤪🤪
      The response to changes with each parameter is never in ur face yet the changes can be dramatic.
      The microcosm is like a wife
      You never know the reaction 🤪🤪🤪
      Ooops apologies 😀😀

    Why is clocking on Microscosm so unreliable? Its been terrible with Ableton. Its a lucky dip if it starts in time with any clock. I have a Digitakt and it no better. Was there ever recent a firmware update for the Microcosm?

      I have a high quality midi system with short cables, I think my unit is faulty. I’ve seen so many other complaints about this over on Elektronauts. It might start in time, but often doesn’t and sounds like an absolutely jumbled mess, which is fixed with a stop start.

      @HologramElectronics  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      @@8bitBarry1 are you talking about the MIDI clock drifting, or are you talking about loops drifting in relation to external tempo? If the latter, it should be pointed out that Microcosm does not record quantized loops, so if that's what's drifting out of time, then that is to be expected.
