I've been coming back to this "video manual" many times over the last few months as I am learning my Pizza. The video organization, the breadth and detail of the content, and the clarity of communication and demonstration of all the concepts make this Pizza tutorial one of the best videos of it's kind that I think I've ever seen. Oscillator Sink is a highly skilled and knowledgable sound artist and an incredible teacher. "Spoiler alert!" ;) Bastl Pizza is super dope.
Incredible level of detail and knowledge ! This is more than just a simple Pizza review, it’s a whole 2 hour course on FM Synths and on the joy of patching ! Thanks so much for making this !
In my opinion manufacturers should provide video manuals of this nature by default for all or most modules. So much more useful than a written manual. I've had Pizza since Black Friday and not spent much time with it yet, but this is inspirational and I can't wait to get stuck in. I need to properly watch your Digitone vids as well, because again am still a novice with that too. Even though I'm so old I was once a co-owner of an original DX7! Keep up the good work, it's appreciated immensely.
Thank you, I'm glad the work was appreciated - the good news is that I have at least one more video manual in the works right now so it seems that the vibe is catching on.
Excellent tutorial! I've had Pizza for a couple of weeks and have seen a couple of other videos but this is the best by far. It will probably take me a couple of days to finish watching as I have to pause it every few minutes to explore each different setting. Great job, subscribed and liked.
@@benbauer1065 it's just a micro USB cable. Micro USB at one end, type A (the most common connection you find on most computers) on the other. If you have a digital camera or an old phone etc. you'll probably have one
@@OscillatorSink I read in the Bastl site that it might be that I'm using the wrong USB cable. Needs a cable that capable of sending not only power but also data. Tha k you for the video and the response. I'll be watching this several times over to understand the module. It's so much for an fm noob.
Hi ! I have problems updating and trying to reset to factory setting. I had follow all the steps in the manual and nothing happens. Please maybe could you make some video explaining this two topics ?
I would suggest contacting bastl (possibly via their discord server). I would suggest though, trying a different USB port (or not using a hub, if you are using a hub). If I made a video it would likely look very similar to what you're doing already.
@@tColorsinspacerecordings can I ask you exactly what kind of USB cable you used to update the module? Iv ordered 3 different cables and they won't work.

That's maybe the best and complete video I ever saw on a single module. Thanks a lot for all your info and tips, I can't wait to try that on my Pizza!
Thank you so much!
I have one on the way, and I’ll be watching this a hell of a lot
Enjoy your Pizza!

I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it! This video was deva labour of love!
Fantastic job!! That new 3op mode os a game changer 😱😱😱😱 Can’t wait to update it
Yep, that's a lovely addition! Enjoy exploring it!
@@OscillatorSink honestly I feel like your tutorial showed me new ways of exploring the initial firmware too ❤️
@@bsbazzman I'm extremely happy to hear that!

It already is, when you look for the manuel on bastl website they first link you to this tutorial, then the pdf one :)
Amazing job as always. You are true king of FM
❤️
Really appreciate the nuance and attention to technical details here❤
Thank you friend!
Mr. Sink always explains everything, the kitchen sink and more! Thank you to the FM master!
courageous video. Thanks for all your work, man
Haha, thank you, and a very appropriate description, especially when I came to edit down the 5 and a half hours of raw footage!
What a partnership! My favorite synth TH-camr to learn from and one of the most creative synth companies out there. Massive support to you both!
Thank you so much (and I'm sure bastl will be thankful too!)

Thank you! Love this.
Thanks for checking it out!
Fantastic video. The alternative use of the sync input is completely new to me. The example patches are outstanding. Thanks.
Thank you for watching, I'm really glad you found some new ideas in there!
May I ask you what type of USB cable you use to update? I'm struggling to get the right one?

always a joy to hear your opinion ... I learned a lot about FM. thank you
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for this great Video!!!!!
Thanks for checking it out!
This is intense.
What operating system are you using? There's a known issue with some versions of macos, but there is a work around.

you're selling me on so much bastl shit right now lol...
EX-CEL-ENT ! thank you much

Mine doesn’t even show up as a external drive on my computer to be able to update. Always something.
What OS are you using? I've seen in the bastl discord there's an issue with a certain macos version - there's a work around for it.
@@OscillatorSink Catalina but I’m upgrading to the newest right now. I’ll see what happens.
@@OscillatorSink I ended up using Terminal and it worked. Cheers.

Great but your voice battles the sound and it's difficult to understand
Sound too metallic for me, thx for the video
Honestly the most comprehensive demonstration of any piece of gear I’ve ever researched. Thank you. ✊🏽🥷🏽
Cheers! Glad to help!
