Hi Sarah Belle! I’ve been quietly taking your online course Learning Sound & Synthesis for the past month, while awaiting the arrival of my Black & Gold baby :) You have been such an inspiration to me over the past few years… thanks for all you do for this community ❤️
Hey Brittney!! This makes me so happy to hear, I'm excited for your new synth to arrive and so happy to hear you are enjoying the course. Thank you for being part of the community!!
I wasn't aware of Sarah's course. After seeing this, in how great of instructor she is, I'll definitely be checking that out. Thanks!
You're so well put together and yet your music is completely unhinged. I truly respect that.
Sarah, I told myself, 'no more modules'! 5 min into this I bought the Doepfer module. I was quite surprised how inexpensive it was. I have a number of acoustic sourced to play with. I could listen all day to these experiments. You're an awesome teacher and eurorack performer.
yesyesyes-realy exited about this one
Always such a joy
Excellent video all around, thank you!
Captivating and inspiring! Sarah you're pure gold. What a great idea Make Noise!
Unreal. That was an incredible video by Sarah. So well explained and laid out. Thanks for this.
Wow! What a crazy sonic journey ❤️ Excellent video. Thanks a lot!
⚡️
So f'n good! The last part/piece was brilliant! Thanks for sharing this Sarah! Can't wait to apply some of those ideas to my guitar/synth!
⚡️🎸 ⚡️
This is friggin awesome.
Super interesting sounds and ideas coming from watching this. I will definitely be experimenting with these concepts. By the way that case is gorgeous.
Thank you Sarah Belle Reid for this amazing masterclass! So much inspiration for new sound design techniques and ways to incorporate human performance into modular synthesis.
Glad you enjoyed the video!!
Absolutely brilliant presentation! I work primarily with acoustic sounds using my modular setup for processing and you really helped me in several areas. Thank you so much for the work you put into this.
Glad to hear the video was useful for your practice! ⚡️
Thanks SBR!: always knowledgeable, encouraging, and seemingly devoted to shaping sounds into something raw and inspiring. I’ve taken one of your courses and appreciate your POV and insight. Thanks for bringing us this one, Make Noise.
Thanks for watching! Sarah always brings the creativity to our ears!!
I know everyone else has already said it but I'll say it again. This was incredible!
Amazing video as always, super inspiring, top quality explanations and a joy to watch and grab something acoustic later. Also love the wooden case.
⚡️🎶⚡️
I have been watching Sarah Belle Reid's videos on a daily basis recently for inspiration and information, so that I can turn my electric and acoustic bass into a modular dreamscape! Thank you, SO SO much, Sarah Belle - You are a total lifechanger! 😸😊🤩😎🎼🎵🎺🥁🪘🎸📻🎧🎤🔊🎛🎚🎙🎶
Really well done. Thanks for this masterclass 🙏 👌✌️
Thanks for watching! ⚡️
Fantastic! Two of my favourite YT channels collab'ing. Life just doesn't get much better. So many cool techniques here to digest.
Thanks for watching! Happy patching ⚡️
That was a masterclass, brilliantly prepared and performed. I am utterly inspired. Thank you for this!
Master class, Sarah!

Sarah, super interesting masterclass, brilliantly explained and illustrated. Whilst I do not play any acoustic instrument, I feel the techniques could work very well using the Benjolin controlled by a 0-cntrl and since I own many of the modules you use, I can start with your patch examples. Thank you and MakeNoise for making this happen.
This video has me reevaluating whether I should just sell all of my pedals and use the proceeds to help fund a small modular system for electric and upright bass. The duet section has me thinking that this is exactly where I want to be. Rad video, and a reasonably approachable explanation of how the concepts are actualized. Break out the buchla bongos it's time for jazz in space.
That patch around 32 min is something. Great ideas here. Thanks
Super great video!! Very inspiring. Nil Petter Molvaer has to be one of your favs (?). I'll certainly be exploring these possibilities.
so inspiring
Loved those weird sounds. Don't have any of those modules, nor do I play trumpet, but I manage to create my own crazy stuff. My Doepfer A-137-1 enables line and mic level input to be mangled and manipulated into my system. Eurorack noodling is so addictive. ; )
Super great tutorial, thanx for sharing this…I‘ll try it with my guitar! Greetings 🖖☺️
Have fun!!
Great video, with a bunch of excellent ideas for setups of any size--from a beauty box to a wall. Another great envelope follower technique is using it to slow down the clock of your accompaniment patch, leaving you a little extra breathing room in the arrangement when you play loud. An attenuverter works great here--you can reverse that relationship with a quick knob turn.
Good idea!! ⚡️
Some wonderful sounds there. Guess I'm not the only one eyeing the Buchla-esque case lurking in the background.
some trumpet parts remind me a lot of dredg, great stuff Sarah!
great video! can you do a part 2 where you focus more on the Morphagene. That would be lovely!
Nice! Sarah great ideas. Thanks for some fresh thoughts on modular. I also used the MORPHAGENE like a long delay with some mod on the VARISPEED and your triggered accompaniment patch with my guitar. BTW check out Chase Bliss Pedals very cool Blooper and Mood are my favorites. Thanks again.
DANG that wooden case is so cool!!!!
aside from the cool case, lots of great ideas here - makes me want to bust out the trumpet that i haven’t played since high school

Hi Sarah, .. like your approach, here.
This method, that you're doing, was in my mind, too, when I first got into modular. I started with MI Beads, the granular texture thing seemed pretty appealing, along with a Strymon A.A1, which is similar to your Doepfer 119. Beads having audio stereo in, which the A.A1 can furnish (stereo). Instruments? .. electric guitar, keyboard synth, and whatever I can scrape off the internet.
It's ongoing journey. I'm more a fan of the slight inflections, of signal,from the module(s) than I am of anything else, so far. And yes, I also, was interested in the real time playing aspect, and massaging by the modules was something that I wanted to have happen, .. however, depending on what I've got set, .. latency, to outright delay is common, for some of the sounds, that I gravitate to.
So, what I've ended doing is making mostly dry recordings of my instruments, (which is usually following the BPM of another musician, on a music collaboration site) .. and then throwing this track into the module system. Sometimes, I have some kind of synch click, at the beginning .. or not .. it usually isn't that difficult to line it up, to the base track, with the synthed modded outcome, either way.
The benefit is, the playing part is in the can, so to speak .. so, if there's much delay or lag .. it doesn't matter. Feeding the dry track into Beads, from the Strymon A.A1. Now, I've got both hands free, and all of my concentration to the changing of patch cords, setting attenuvertors, or the other primary setting knobs, of Beads. It is a nice luxury, .. well worth the extra step of making that dry recording, at the first.
IF I were to get anything else, besides my Beads, Rings, & Bitbox Micro .. I think it would a be Retro Mechanical Labs standalone unit. They make a great sounding fuzz effects, and AM radio like, .. ah! .. it's pretty hard to describe. If you haven't heard one, .. I would recommend you at least listen to one, for awhile.
Thanks for putting this up! .. :)
19:56 a duet for trumpet and feedback would be amazing! Great vid :)
I think this might be my second time commenting, but this video is the greatest for realtime audio input. I was blown away months ago. Still blown away. Just got my A-119. Can't wait to dig in. Huge thanks. I would have never gone down this path without your insight and help. HUGE thank you!
the sound at 6:50 is a lot like brain eno's sky saw. pretty sick!
Great video 👍 I have just got a A119 to play trombone into my Modular I have a similar setup Maths OCoast Blades Beads so can try similar patches.
Happy patching!
Great video, I enjoyed that. I know it's sponsored by a hardware company, but for anyone that can't justify (or afford) getting real modular, all those techniques work with modular software too like VCV Rack.
Username checks out 😛
@@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC yeah not the most original really, but 'does what it says on the tin' 😆
I can't lie though, wouldn't mind a few Makenoise modules. Just need to find a way of buying them without being divorced!
31:46 Wow !
⚡️
how do you boost your signal after morphagene I have had problems with low low sound level post morphagene . Do you think I need a new/different VCA ? I'm using doepfer A-135-2 vca/mixer . my case is A-100 6u . would a different vca possibly be better ? or any other way to boost it ? any help is greatly appreciated .
This may or may not help….but turn the SOS nob at the top of the module, in the center, fully CW (clock wise). This controls the output. I can’t remember of hand, but there’s a way to control the input level as well, but this doesn’t sound like your problem.
Shift-rec
Omg I have used audio in envelope followers to trigger oscillators but never to control cv 🤯 that’s brilllllliant
Thanks for watching! 🎶⚡️
Amazing! Do you know of any envelope followers that faithfully track pitch?
Pitch tracking is a lot more complicated than envelope following. In analog it's usually PLL-based, which has some quirks but can also be fun: th-cam.com/video/OWBGLc64xXA/w-d-xo.html
There's a huge range of sounds.... it's pretty funny to see you trying to get a normal sound from the instrument...it doesn't seem possible no matter how hard you try...its like a cartoon
make noise like colin stetson
What no frequency to Cv?

@@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC I totally agree with you. I have several "pitch to cv" units - doepfer, expert sleepers, korg, analogue systems and a woggle bug. None of them are very effective. But all can generate a cv which can be processed and used to modulate many other units. Also There are several circuits that convert resistance to cv you could even use pressure sensitive pads on the mouthpiece to generate cv's from the embrosure "?" Using an instruments unique articulations to produce cv's is what it's all about!
@@donramsay169What unit from Doepfer do you have? I just know Behringer Perfect Pitch which is sold out and Noise Lab Tailgater which is not yet available, and Behringer K-2...
Great video Sara! Also into hooking acoustical instruments into modular synths, in my case clarinet. Besides using audio for CV generation I'm also using motion sensors.

Good luck with all your projects!
