Moog Werkstatt-01 - Ambient Synthesizer Jam (Arpeggio Madness)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ต.ค. 2020
- Hi! It finally happened! A synth company reached out to me to have me try their synthesizer! I'm glad it was MOOG because I really do enjoy their synths! So here's a Ambient Jam I just recorded with the Moog Werkstatt-01 & CV-Expander. The CV Expander lets you do all kinds of crazy stuff but if you know me I'm a sucker for the straight up filtered Moog saw wave so I haven't gotten to that part of the synth yet XD
Happy to answer any questions in the comment section below!
Thanks for watching!

Absolutely beautiful - love how the harmonic richness of the moog dissolves into the reverb cloud...
"Reverb cloud" - I like that...
It's amazing how you can make ambient out of any synth. I admire you
Confirm ;)
I’m newish to the synth world (using plugins for the synth part), and was looking at this for like a baby’s first desktop synth. After watching this and other videos like it, I think I’m gonna pick one up.
Nice! I hope you will have fun with it!
Happy to hear that Moog reached out to you. I assume they gave you a Moog Werkstat to try out. I ran across this video again and still enjoy hearing it! All the best.
Thank you Raku! 🙏
Truly delightful, loving the calmness of this piece. Beautiful work fine Sir!
amazing like always! 💫
Thanks for sharing. You really squeezed out some good sounds and sound tapestries from the little synth! You are tempting me to get one of those Werkstatts!
Im also very glad MOOG reached out to you, cause This was beautiful!
Thank you! :D
oh wow...those tones are lush!
Yooo congrats on the sponsor that's incredible!
This sounds SO good!! Great demo, and congrats on getting recognised by Moog :)
Cheers! :D
This was really nice!!! Fun sounds on the WerkStatt!

Sounds absolutely gorgeous. Great work 👍
Hey! Thank you!
Congratulations on the sponsorship! Moog sound is really satisfying.
I agree! Thank you!
great as always
Wooow so happy for you bro!! Sounds great
Thanks! :D
I just ordered the Werkstatt, and this will be my setup as well. The Keystep seems like a perfect match for the Werkstatt! Great video!
Thank you! Yes indeed! :D
That was so beautiful. Thanks!
Sounds incredible, great work!
Thank you very much!
Really nice dreamy stuff !
This is amazing. You deserve it.
Man, this sounds great!
You deserved the sponsorship, love the video!

Yoooo, congrats on the Moog sponsor. Been following you for a long time. Nice to see you put out more bangers
Thank you very much! :D
Very cool
Yo wtfffff my man got sponsored by moog lol
sponsored me please
It's inspiring!
Beautiful as always! I love Valhalla shimmer.
Congrats on the Moog endorsement! 🎹
Arpeggiated Ambient - nice! :)
brilliant
Keep the video's coming!! Always fun to watch and see progression. Congrats on the moog support
yooo biiig ups for the sponsor thats huuge
Beautiful as always. May I ask which keystep you own. Congrats havin Moog over 😀so happy about this
Me too! Thank you! It's the regular Keystep but the black edition. If you search for "KeyStep Black Edition" it will pop up.
CLASSIC RemixSample. Expanding, evolving lush pads with that silky smooth Moog overtop. I think it's no wonder Moog reached out after all this time. Well done mate! Looking forward to seeing how you incorporate the Werkstatt with your other synths.
Hey! Thanks! :D
your videos made me buy Valhalla shimmer :D
Nice! :D Enjoy!
very awesome sponsor haha
Really pretty 😌
Thanks Eryn!
Valhalla makes all the difference!
This is sick. I have a Keystep and a Werkstatt that I got a few years back but never got the CV expander. With the recent re-release, I was wondering about finally getting the expander. This video just convinced me
if u have the OG werkstatt, the cv expander wont work on ur model unfrotunately :(
Hi! Congrats, its amazing!
How do you keep the tempo so straight? Keep feeling that my DAW recording its always off from my synths, mainly volcan Bass.
Cheers
Just heaven😊😊😊
🙏
I've had decided not to buying any toy anymore before I saw this... yeah I'm getting new one, thnx bro :)
Haha nice! Enjoy! :D
Dope
cool!
This composition came up on my youtube homepage. It was refreshing to hear you jamming again on the Werkstatt! You definitely have the touch for making beautiful ambient sounds from a synth, especially one as basic as the Werkstatt. This video deserves more views!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it! :D
You get real Krach from Werkstatt man:-) beautiful!
A great piece. I really enjoy your ambient works.
I would love you forever if you did a quick tutorial on this. I have had a werkstatt for a couple years still learning. But recently got a Keystep 37 and want to do exactly this type of stuff with it. Awesome work. Thanks for the inspiration.
Here is a video showing how I connected them both together: th-cam.com/video/dOlotiJXrtU/w-d-xo.html
I then put the keystep in arpeggio mode and play it that way. I also added lots of Valhalla Shimmer reverb to the sound (werkstatt into usb audo interface into FL Studio). I don't remember what the patch settings were but it's most likely just a simple saw wave that I filtered down. Hope that helps!
@@RemixSample hey awesome thanks alot. I'll check out the video. Appreciate it.
Such a simple synth yet demonstrated so hauntingly beautifully, sometimes less is more.
Moog did right to ask you 👍 👍 👍
Cheers! 🙏
Excellent. They definitely know who the talented artists are. I like to see you get your hands on a Waldorf Iridium. Great work with the Werkstatt-01
Thank you! Yes that looks like a cool synth!
I was going to ask, what are you using for video editor? Your video's and editing look great! Thanks
This is dope. Are you gonna do a video with this and the mother 32?
Yes I'm gonna play around with them both at least! :D
beautiful! There is a riverber? I think.
Thank you! I'm using Valhalla Shimmer reverb yes.
Very beautiful sounding, so lovely to just drift away and lose yourself into this ambience... wow congratulations man, so glad moog sponsored you with this synth. Hehe I’m totally sure your mother32 videos were partially responsible for me deciding to buy one at the time :-)
I think so too! Cheers! :D
Had to come back for another listen lol!! :-)
I was playing your Dark souls Gwyn lord of cinders peace and it slipped into this one. They do complement each other even though you've clearly use completely synths.
Woow
Alone in space 🌌
Beautiful. Do you know if the Werkstatt + Keystep will send midi note values to Ableton Live or any other DAW? Thanks, great job.
Thanks! Yes! I had my keystep hooked up to FL Studio via usb and was able to send midi notes from FL to the keystep into the Werkstatt.
@@RemixSample That's great news, thanks a lot for taking the time to answer.
Really nice demo! May I ask you what camera do you use?
Most of my videos are recorded with mirrorless Sony cameras. A6400 in this one. And I used a Sigma 30mm 1.4 lens.
@@RemixSample thanx! Great, I just bought an a6400 last week!
Wish I could see a quick set up for this, I have both now
Nice! What specifically would you like to know? This video (at 24 mins) should show you how to set up the CV connections th-cam.com/video/PeHtRvlPZvE/w-d-xo.html
Which Arturia is that? I have a werkstattt on the way, and I need to find a keyboard that will work with it. Thanks! Very nice piece.
Thank you! It's the Arturia Keystep (black edition). I believe there is a new version of the keystep with more features but this one is pretty inexpensive and works great with the Werkstatt.
@@RemixSample Thanks! I need to shop a bit, I guess. I found one on Reverb, but I just got rid of one with Mini keys. I like the full size keys.
Good sound.
What are the connections between Moog and keystep?
Thank in advance.
Hey! I don't remember exactly how I connected it all. I think I did it like this: th-cam.com/video/dOlotiJXrtU/w-d-xo.html
hello remix!!! HOW DID U HOOK THIS UP AND EXACTLY WHAT DID U DO ? WHICH Model KEYBOARD ARE U USING PLASE LET ME KNOW I JUST BOUGHT A WERKSTATT AND WANNA MAKE STUFF LIKE THIS PLEASE LET ME KMOE WHAT BREAKOUT CABLES I NEED ALSO !!! THAMK YOU SO MUCH!!! YOU WORK MAGIC I LOVE THE AMBIENT TRACKS U DO!!!
Hello Rasheed! I use an Arturia Keystep. Check out this video for more details th-cam.com/video/dOlotiJXrtU/w-d-xo.html
How you achieve this awesome ambience like a PAD? It's a reverb?
Yes, it's lots of Valhalla Shimmer and some experimentation with Paul's Extreme Sound Stretch. That software can turn anything into a pad.
Paul X stretch now has a VST version you can run in your DAW: xenakios.wordpress.com/paulxstretch-plugin/
@@skyscan5225 Hi man, thanks for reply, I have this vst version, but I don't manage very well to make this type of pads, but thanks anyway!
You can run guitar effect pedals between the synth and the interface to do whatever as well right?
Indeed! That works too.
awesome music- I can see why they sponsored you!
Thank you!
How do I sync the Werkstatt with a drum machine for timing
Is it possible to connect moog werkstatt-01 and korg minilogue xd together on cv? Thank you
Yes that works. But keep in mind that the Minologue XD only has CV Inputs so you won't be able to controll/play the Werkstatt-01 with the Minillouge XD.
Are you using Keystep's pitch range using notes available in the 0,+5v range to be able to play the Werkstatt's VCO exp fm -5,+5v range excluding the -5,0v lower notes?
Hi! You know what, I don't really recall if I made any changes to the settings on the Keystep. I might just have played with the default settings. Sorry but that's all I know.
Ok sooooooooo, I have keystep and the moog, how do I plug the moog into my interface and then to ableton to get sound through my monitors, or can I skip ableton and just go interface to monitors somehow
You have to pair the Keystep with the Moog via VC and the just put the Moog Output into you interface. Then you could monitor the input on the interface or monitor the track in Ableton.
@@cal3033 ok I gotta get the three longer VC cables............so I tried it with my Neutron and got it through the interface and monitors now, yeah.............so the moog and the neutron come out mono, so do I just get a mono to stereo adapter from the synths to the interface if I want both monitors?
What a beautiful machine! I'm far from being an expert but it really has a very characteristic sound, I think. How would you compare it to the Mother? I have been thinking about getting a used one, but as a beginner I'm not sure if it would make sense for me. Do you think the Werkstatt can produce a similar sounding results and would the learning curve be roughly comparable between both instruments? Maybe I'm missing the point and they are intended to be used entirely different lol
Anyways, thanks for the video and grats on the endorsement!
Hey! I'm gonna have to try them out side by side to really tell. But so far I'm really happy with the sound of the oscillators and filter. They both have similar features so the learning curve should be about the same. The M32 have a built in sequencer which the Werkstatt doesn't so having at least an external keyboard is recommended. You can have a listen to this video and hear the difference: th-cam.com/video/tjwHwVBWWmk/w-d-xo.html
@@RemixSample Thank you very much for your reply! I guess it probably boils down to having the sequencer and maybe a slight advantage on the ergonomic side with the bigger knobs. Having some kind of keyboard hooked up seem like a must for both of them after all. Hopefully there's going to be a way to try them out in a store anytime soon. From your videos they seem to sound quite similar though, which is a nice surprise. I could listen to what you get out of them for hours! Thanks again!
Мастер.
Do you do tutorials on how to get started doing these? I'm coming from software but I'm sick of daws.
You can check out this Mother 32 video: th-cam.com/video/tjwHwVBWWmk/w-d-xo.html
I basically built the track from scratch in real time. I'm only using the DAW for FX in that video so you can replace them with hardware fx. If you read the video description of that video you'll get a better idea of what's going on.
@@RemixSample awesome! Thank you!
I’ve found these two to be a pretty capable pair. Like hooking up the mod out to the cutoff or LFO rate cv inputs. Your verb sounds great too!
Yes I agree! Great combo! Thank you!
so great. congrats on being selected. Having Moog send you a synth, is like having Henry Ford ask you to do a test drive in 1896, or Elon ask you to test a Tesla in n2008.
I hope they're happy with what you uploaded. Looks like people have responded really well to it...... Warm wishes....
Thank you Will! :D
'Credit where credit is due' hope you get through the holiday season without too much stress or drama ;0)
So, what's the hardware version of the valhalla shimmer?
Hmm in terms of hardware I've only tried the zoom ms-70cdr but you can get a eurorack module (Z-DSP) that runs the Valhalla Shimmer software but that's expensive as hell. Ventris Dual Reverb is a good substitute as well!
Maybe the Eventide Space is kind of down that alley, it's not really cheap though.
Is there any reverb or the moog has own reverb? 🙂
I'm using either Valhalla Shimmer or Valhalla Supermassive which is a vst reverb. There's no built in effects on the Werkstatt-01 unfortunately.
@@RemixSample Thank you for answer :)
How do you film these videos?
I used a Sigma 30 mm 1.4 lens on a Sony A6400. I usually put my light at the end of the desk and hope for the best. It's difficult to film in such a small space.
How did you add midi to the werkstatt?
You connect the CV, MOD and GATE from the Arturia Keystep into the Werkstatt. There is no midi unfortunately. th-cam.com/video/dOlotiJXrtU/w-d-xo.html
Is that a key step controller?
Yes it is!
@@RemixSample Super-thanks. Great set-up. I am getting ready to get one-with the Werkstatt. Looks like a great combo for a synth newbie like me.
Do i need a midi controller for arp ?
Yes you do. There is no built in sequencer. The Arturia Keystep is the perfect midi controller for the Werkstatt since it has all the CV connections you need to play it.
@@RemixSample thank you so much for your kind reply
Le son est absolument magnifique !! Vraiment très beau ..bravo .Just a Question ! no Midi input ,So you have to use an analog synth like a Korg MS-20 or something to drive this thing ?. NO ?
Yes that's right. You have to use the CV inputs to play this thing with external keyboards or sequencers. The keystep does a great job at this. I can also send midi inputs from my DAW via the Keystep into the Moog Werkstatt.
@@RemixSample Thanks very much Dude ;) ,all your démos are very amazing ..
love your stuff. how about adding some textures with delay + high repeats? just for the sake of experiments. clear'n'calm sound you have is brilliant too.
also, please, recommend some synth for about 500$? no keyboard is okay, maybe I'll get a separate midi. I thought of minilogue, then I heard some good words about microfreak, really don't know. wanna create some stuff like you make. also wanna backing for my guitar, so sequencer is a must.
A microfreak is a great idea. I have not played with it myself but from the demos I've seen it's really good value for the money. If you could find a used Minilouge XD that would be a nice alternative as well because it has great built in effects suited for this type of music and it's polyphonic synth. The Behringer Model D is also fantastic value for the money but lacks sequencer so you would have to use something like the Arturia Keystep to sequence it or a computer.
@@RemixSample thanks for your answer! yeah, minilogue xd was on my list) as well as arturia keystep. but what about mother 32? is it better than behrinher D? as I can see, they both are rack style synths. would you swap your m32 for behrinher d? you really help me here! ps: I had doubts about microfreak just becuase it's digital.. not sure if it's okay for synths. I have bunch of pedals: some are DSP, some are true analog and they could be great regardless of their nature. but synths have that oscillators, so it could be different somehow… you don't have to answer about analog vs digital holywar if you don't want to :)
Sisäisille.
what instruments are those?
The synthesizer is called Moog Werkstatt-01 and I'm playing it using a Arturia Keystep cv & midi keyboard
Thanks you so much!
Are you running through a pedal or something........sounds like your using moog for one part the a background synth strings
I've got a couple of soft synth playing on my computer inside FL Studio. The audio from the Werkstatt is also going into a usb audio interface and then into FL Studio were I applied Valhalla Shimmer reverb and probably some delay. I'm playing the arpeggio of the Werkstatt using the Arturia Keystep. I don't remember if I synced that to my computer or if I used dialed in the right tempo.
The arpeggio from 1:50 reminds me a bit of the end of Final Fantasy VII's Victory Fanfare: th-cam.com/video/-YCN-a0NsNk/w-d-xo.html or the last part of Stranger Things - Kids: th-cam.com/video/Ha2OcL_0gtM/w-d-xo.html
Yes you are right! I didn't think of that but that FF7 melody definitely lives in my subconscious!. :D
Less is sometimes more, sweety. Example, breaks is give that magic breath what the man of today is forgotten from his notes. That is provide the immeasurable excitement before a next tune. Not a loudly grinding from any vallhalla, shimering, etc. filling tune effects. Less loudly fills, take them step down on background, and: - Please tell to us, what your want with your music! We are curious about to it! Thanks a lot for already exist greatest mixies! Ambient too can be proudly fairy tale.
