Mind blown. Very impressive. I just picked this synth up. Not sure I would have thought of a patch like this, especially with how much expressive hands-on features this has.
Thanks. I saw some generative music created on other synths and wanted to try it on the PolyBrute. I was surprised when it started playing beautiful scales and not just random notes all over the place.
Yeah! I have only a PB6, but in this case the number of voices doesn‘t matter, as you play only one tone anyway. I made a B layer with different tunings, LFO speeds, oscillator and filter parameters and layered A and B. Even more complex and interesting! Add some ambience chords from another keyboard (Iridium in my case), and you totally forget time. I think you made the best PB patch ever. Thank you so much. 🙂
It’s a fun modulation challenge. As long as you can lock the pitch of the oscillator to a scale and have a random LFO wave, you should be able to do it.
Gee, LFOVoyager... Thanks for turning my Cream Dream GAS back on after I had successfully gotten it shut down! This video was amazing! I have a question for you that's kind of off topic. In one of your other videos I noticed you using the Synthstrom Deluge. What are your thoughts on it? I have been looking at many, many sequencers, (Oxi, Squarp Hapax, Digitakt II, Polyend) and just none of them are really putting me in the "buy it" mode. Have you tried any of those or have any thoughts on them versus your Deluge? Thanks!
I absolutely love the Deluge. I use it to record and sequence my synths, along with the internal synth engine and sampler. I had an MPC Live 2, but I spent the entire time looking at the screen just like a computer. The deluge has some shift commands that I keep in a notebook, but once you learn the basics, you can get going really fast. If I have a song idea in my head, I can power it on, lay down a drum pattern, and start recording my synth in less than a minute. The sequencing abilities are right up there with Elektron, including things like probability, conditions, and parameter locking. It even has some advantages over Elektron in that you can zoom into the 16-bar grid to add extra triggers to do things like ratcheting and triplets. You can also live-record parameter changes. And then there’s the open-source community firmware update which added an Ableton-like grid mode and a bunch of other things. It’s too much to list, but I’ll make a video highlighting some of my favorite features.

Such a beautiful sound. It’s like Jean Michael Jarre is living inside the synth playing it from the inside out !! Love it
@@MariaCalfaDePaul Cute. I also want a little Joe Zawinul living inside my synths.

Thanks man, appreciate the compliment. I gotta try doing it with different A and B layers.
I don't know what the deal is, but you have a sinfully low number of subscribers. Hopefully rapidly increasing from here on out. SUBSCRIBED!
Thanks, I just started posting videos.
Very clever patch!
Thanks!
Wow, you have scratched deeper on this one…!
Oh man, wat a cool idea!
Thanks
a very creative use of LFOs. nice that its able to be stepped within a scale
Thanks.
This is very cool. I’d be down for an in depth tutorial video about this though your explanation was very clear. Sounds great. Subscribed.
Thanks, I haven't made any real tutorials yet, but I'll add this to my list of video ideas.
Holy shit, this is literally genius synth programming!
Thanks. It was actually simpler to program than I thought it would be.
beautyful !
Amazing! 🤩
Brilliant! And, inspiring! Time to go see of my other synths can do this 🥰

@@LFOVoyager would it work on the original Polybrute?
@@enochroot9438 Yes, I believe it will.
Amazing
Thanks bro!
HECK YA!
Absolute sonic witchcraft
Fantastic! But I still don‘t get how you did it. Does the PB12 have step LFOs like the MatrixBrute? My PB6 doesn’t.
I’m using the slewed random waveform on lfo 1 and 2.
@ Ah, and the well-tempered pitches come from the scales in the settings? Starts to make sense … :)
Wow ! Well done and amazing to have such automated playing. Do you think the matrixbrute could do the same automation for an "eternal ambient play" ?
I’ve never played a MatrixBrute, but if it has the ability to set the VCO Mod Tune to a scale then you should be able to do it.
I’m not a big fan of generative music, but this sounds amazing!
It was an experiment that really surprised me.

@@LFOVoyager Awesome! Thanks so much. I will look forward to seeing that video!
What a great modulation idea. It sound really nice. Witch FX are you using?
I’m using the “Dreamy” Reverb with the “BBD Spread” delay.
Rise of the machines / fall of the human expression.
I wonder if I can make my microfreak do this
I believe the Microfreak has a random LFO wave, but I’m not sure if you can set the Oscillator pitch modulation to a specific scale.
Soon we'll have synths that have just one button, and AI plays everything.
