10 minutes in and this is not just a good NerdSeq tutorial but probably one of the best guides on eurorack fundamentals. Cuckoo is a great teacher ✌️
I got mine today and I could create different patterns and filter modulation in 10-20 minutes. I love the clicky feeling of the buttons. This module is a joy.
came here a month ago to see an example of nerdseq workflow, and now i'm back watching your tutorial after picking one up! As a seasoned renoise user, I feel right at home :)
So nice to see you in the modular realm man, modular community needs a lot of Cuckoonism! Also looking forward to your Morphagene Tut;-)
I second this!
Thanks y'all! Yeah I'm looking forward to diving into the Morphagene in 2020 at some point. I just need to pay my taxes first 🙈 should be there soon!
he is a good fit for modular synthesis and has the looks and persona to match as well :-)
I typically find modular intimidating. You approach it in a way that keeps it relaxed. I’m seriously thinking of getting into modular music after this video. Thanks for another great video!
Well its intimidating because you don't want to go bankrupt from buying modules.
Very easy to listen to and learn pretty much everything lol. Definitely the channel to watch for super complicated stuff.
Ah, this brings back early 90s memories from my Atari ST X-)
Always loved Protracker since the 80ies :) Never understand why it did not beat midi.sequencers. Thanks for the video.
Instructions for live midi recording on the NerdSeq start at 28:00 - Thank you Cuckoo!
I've been using the nerdseq for about 18 months now so I wasn't expecting to learn much here, but I did learn a few cool little things. And more importantly, it's really good to see how you work and build up fun groovy tracks by just taking simple logical steps. Really inspiring. Cheers!
Glad to hear that mate!! ❤️
At 51:00 for anyone confused why 06 is playing what sound like weird little glitches on track 1.. Those are the values he put in on channel 3 which was Pattern 06. A pattern is not exclusive to any one track. It can be put on any track and those values will send to their corresponding outputs. Something to keep in mind for anyone new to trackers as that can easily get you hung up.
A common organizational strategy when going about laying out tracks is using patterns 10 through 1F on Track 1, 20 through 2F on Track 2, 30 through 3F on Track 3, and so on... I typically use 00 through 0F as my blank canvas to sketch ideas.
You are the Bob Ross of Sequencer demo videos.
This is is a surprisingly great video, really good lucid descriptions of some very specific stuff. I love those moments where cool sounds comes out and you can't help yourself- like the hyper-chiptune arp chords. It's all really getting the joy of the clever design of the Nerdseq across, too. I wasn't planning on sitting here for an hour watching this, but it was an entertaining and companionable tour around the foothills of Nerdseq- fantastic work
Thanks! This tutorial really got me up and running with the Nerdseq. I was a little intimidated at the start but now I love it!
26:56 - That’s brisk, sir! 😀 Hi, Cuckoo. So happy you’re demoing a euro rack module! I love eurorack! I don’t have any, so I love watching! It’s great to see - and hear with *your* touch on it! Groove a while with Cuckoo! ☺️ Your best video, Cuckoo! Super fun jam!
I wasnt planning to watch the whole thing, an hour seemed long, but it was completely mesmerising. As a retro-gaming-fan & a programmer by trade, this workflow is really appealing to me. I hope we see more of this.
Thomas! You did it : ] Nice to see you featured here
I’ve been wanting to do this for over a year! Glad I finally got around to learn this thing. It really suits my own style and needs.
I would like to see more of this. I’m new to modular because in the past I viewed upon it as a ‘little alien’ to me.
This is a very nice explanation and leaves me with a little more understanding of the concept. Thank you cuckoo!
Thank you for this. Many people have been raving about the Nerdseq but I was always turned off by the lack of cv outs per track without the expansion modules. However seeing how it is a Midi to CV converter AND sample player, you can really use this turn your modular into a complete DAW. Very impressive and you just sold me on it!
There is a more cv add on soon :-)
it reminds me a lot of the Elektron sequencer workflow on the Octatrack!
this is such a powerful module! As a huge tracker dork this is definitely on my list to buy. Thanks for the great tutorial.
thanks man! always a deep dive, well executed! the quest for a good and playable, yet precise sequencer in eurorack is a tough one. never really got the idea of a tracker, but you made it look cool 😎
The buttons are so satisfying to press.
Nice and bouncy.
I think of it as Ableton session view in the rack. Just tracker style.
Got a screen showing all the “clips”
Then click on a clip and edit/creat it.
No tiny screen trying to figure out how to make larger patterns etc
U can easily name and color stuff
Copy and paste
Modular techno sequencing made easy !
NOW THIS IS MY KINDA TUTORIAL!!! I love my NerdSeq
I’ so happy you made this video! Keep up the amazing work!!!
Brilliant tutorial with sweet music.
Maaan its so intuitive! thank you for this mega tutorial !
ONE OF US. ONE OF US!!!! Super happy to see you in the modular world, mate -- Cheers
Incredibly awesome video, I love the way you musically learn us things
I really loved this video and Nerdseq. I hope you do another one. Each time I find some hidden Nerdseq feature I get a big grin on my face :)
Wow Cuckoo you are the perfect guy to do this video! Eurorack is like legos for adults.
Awesome tutorial! Got me going with my NerdSeq in realtime. :D Thank you!
That single strand of hair by the mod 4 output is majestic.
Received mine 2 weeks ago. Nice video!
Great demo, thanks!
Looked this vid the 2nd time - but this time my NerdSeq is in space towards my studio - thanks for this cool - relaxed - mega - tutorial \0/ Gonna her a lot of fun for sure working on an upcoming project using this "nerdy" thing. Take care out there!!
Congrats on the 100k!
Really nice tutorial, helps me alot on start, thanks!
Love how the rectangular case suddenly became an abstract shape with sawteeth
😂
You are hilarious 😂 great tutorial too thanks !
done great. I think I should give it a try.
Always Nice and super helpfull videos! Thanks Man!!!
Right on man.
props for shooting in 4K
Thanks. It’s really convenient working with 4K when making videos like this. To be able to capture all the details of the screens and labels etc.
Thought u said shooting an AK haha
D U D E ! I didn’t understand a damn thing but really loved the vid … and the groovy groove!
Hi Cuckoo,
Really inspired by your channel! I picked up the OP-1 some time ago and and really inspired by it. I am looking to build a Eurorack setup to compliment, but I am having trouble figuring out how to interface it and get the OP-1 to speak together. Basically, I would love to keep the OP-1 as the workstation with its tape mode, sequencers and samplers. But I would love the flexibility of being able to feed the output from the OP-1 into the Eurorack , mess around and then feed the output from the eurorack back into the OP-1 for sampling, recording, etc. but then flexibility. Additionally I would like to have the OP-1 control the eurorack via MIDI and be able to switch around between these paths on the fly. I am trying to keep costs a bit down also mainly since I haven't really found an interface module I can see sorting it out, so what I have landed on currently is the 4ms Listen I/O for line in and outputs and then the Doepfer A-190-3 for MIDI connection, but I am unsure if it does the trick. The Oplab for the OP-1 is discontinued, so I can't use that. Any advice would be really appreciated and would love to see a video where you combine eurorack and the OP-1
Many thanks,
Niels
I have renoise, I have polyend tracker but this is like the best of both worlds and some, definitely gonna get one once can afford it 😭
Thank you very much ! It helped me a lot to star witj it !
Interesting gadget i'v been getting back into electronic music recently ,except i,m not really comfortable with most modern sequencers that are loop pattern based in daw systems ,My Roland Mc500 goes to -11c and I find it's what gives me the edge ,cheers for the tour ....
Nerdcore for life
your voice sounds really good / nice job
I'm a Nedseq obsessive, currently working on a 2nd mini album over the next few days I have off work. Thomas Margolf of Xor has completely outdone himself in creating, designing and updating this one it is.... seriously (just after octatrack and in some ways BETTER than octa) along with the rest of my rig has made me feel like I've been free from DAW land and like almost TRULY making the kinda music I want outside of a computer but still as powerful and freeing in terms of possibilities ...but I AM a tracker head I guess used to make music with Jeskola buzz for wayyyy too many years before I started using daws.... so it was kinda like homecoming too :) any way I think I made my point, this is not just a eurorack module, though it is a GREAT eurorack module, it's a truly powerful and easy to use MIDI sequencer ....um that "thing" that Faith no more was talking about? WHAt IS it? THIS is it!!! Yeah I'm obsessed. Thanks Cockoo you rule!!! :)
❤️

(Just uploaded.... 100% Nerdseq sequencing Integra7 and Assimil8or with lots and lots and maybe too much Clouds and Tapographic delay....
Just sharing to follow up with what I was talking about! Nerdseq apparently allows me to indulge my sappy side ;) hope you like and that you continue bringing the synth joy to the world!!! )
Been using this thingy for over a year and still didn't try to record. Good demo, thanks!
I think this is the sequencer I’m looking for.
Nydelig forklaring og gjennomgang av modulen.
:)
Nerdseq is a tracker which is slightly different from a sequencer however I’m sure you would be able to do some amazing things with it. Good luck! 😉
Much like LittleGPTracker. So powerful with the tables and commands. But it is a bit of a fiddle to program with a gamepad layout. If you want a nice portable version you can hack a PSP and load LittleGPTracker on that....but no midi i/o on the PSP.
There is also a raspberry pi version of LittleGPTracker with MIDI.
Gratz on the 100k subs.
sunvox tracker works on many devices too
Ah yes, the rise and fall days of the modtracker, popular on the Amiga. If you understand the principle of those, learning this module is a walk in the park.
Very well explained, I like the zoom shots to show what's going on. But man, that keyboard! What did you do to it, and why? ;-)
there is something really trippy about the angle with the mirror and what not but I love it.
trackers are hella fun
Congrats on the 100k dude, i love your channel and the way you teach us, Its took me nearly 2 years to get to 9k subs so well done my friend.
I have just started to make another channel to do with music and i am just about to buy a Push 2 or a Novation 49SL MKIII 49-Key USB MIDI Keyboard Controller. i would love both but i am not sure what to buy first, What would you recommend #cuckoo @Cuckoo
Thank you :)
Man, I've wanted one of these for years but it's so expensive. Maybe this year Willbe the one
Really cool tutorial! Could you do a tutorial for pigments 2? It would be great.
Awesome tutorial! Very well translates how much fun you had! Now I want one too...
the 400 staring in the background
Lol
Can I say I’m pumped for jamuary
those noises in the beginning blew my fucking mind and i dont even know why
groovy
nerd seq
Was there a section on Internal Envelopes ? I missed . I’m trying to find out to do this
hey cuckoo ... first thx for all your help her ...I have a question ...you know how too make pattern changes with the nerd sep and the analog rhythm ? I try it sins sum Jahr s and is not working maby you know and show me ...it will be a supper big help ...thx a lot an nice wave s for you
using a PT with FH-2 and my rack. looking to reduce footprint, but not increase aggravation. could you talk about PT vs Nerd. thanks
Hey Tomas, it’d be awesome if u had a standalone version to compete with beatstep pros.
Umm this?
xor-electronics.com/nerdseq-portable/
thinking boutt getting one could be the brain of my eurorack but i am not shure if its hands on enuff for me
Which case is that? Looks kinda sweet.
nice video,what is this case??
This is a very lightweight aluminium case from a smaller Taiwanese store and vendor emitum.com/ It’s a little tight on the edges, but very nicely designed.
True Cuckoo thank you..it’s looks very light..and cool.!
Nice tutorial but, in my opinion trackers are a nightmare to work with :-)
Cheers
Agreed! You cannot beat a traditional sequencer! Trackers are wacked!!
so no hermod anymore ? i'm sad i bought Hermod because of you :p
Hermod is powerful. I especially like Hermod for off the grid improvisations. But I personally vibe more with NerdSeq for my own kind of music.
@@truecuckoo yes that's what really impressed me with hermod, off the grid and musicality, good vibe with the nerd !
What’s the pros/cons running this vs renoise with midi to cv to eurorack?
renoise has a pc interface and doesn't take up space in your rack, but you'll need a robust midi-to-cv box and it lacks the immediacy of a physical module in youur rack
nerdseq directly interfaces with your rack with no distracting converters, but the interface is what it is, and it's a decent investment of space and money.
@@_skysick_ thanks for the reply, mate!
@@HenricWallmark Sure thing. If you do end up going the midi control direction, check out the CV.OCD. It's a midi module with a decent amount of CV and Gate out, isn't too expensive, and is a desktop box so it won't take space in your rack.
Soyuz mic?
You know, Ive really been wanting to learn about the Nerd Seq. Thanks for another great tutorial. Congrats on reaching 100k - wish u many many more!
Im celebrating too - I finally overcame a mental barrier and posted my first TH-cam video.
Wow that’s awesome mate! Congrats! 💪🏼
The sequencer gap.....Akai MPC1000 with JJos2XL and 128gb stoarge still widely regarded as best hardware sequencer for live use in 2019, and prices are rising. Iconic sampler included ;) While the MPC1000 has alot of videos, no really good reviews of the device in 2019 with the highly evolved JJOS. If nothing else the Akai has to be regarded as a benchmark in hardware sequencing, which digitackt, blackbox, deluge and this device maybe should be measured against. MPC 1000 is apparently great with CV also, with 4 outs. Here is something recent: th-cam.com/video/NN-9M4siwfg/w-d-xo.html
All I want is Nerdseq to have a VCVrack version that you can switch back and forth between
UP!
Cuckoo 1h tutorial? I switched from porn to this instantly 🖤🤣
I fee like I have done good to the world 😅
Interesting but seems to take so long to get anything going and fiddly! Ill stick to traditional poly synths and sequence them from my Beatstep pro!
Which poly synths are you using? I am interested as I feel the same way about this.
100k(+1)
Thanks Tyler!! 🙏🏼
@@truecuckoo keep the content coming! One of my favorite escapes is getting lost in your reviews. Favorites so far - volca drum, and the digitone/takt deep dive tutorials. 'Ch-keh, vulllluuul'
There needs to be a more expensive way to play chiptunes. $3k is not enough.
I'm only in it for the intro sound effects
Euroracks are way too cumbersome for making music.
19:44 you can see exactly why this seq is frustrating bc you can just say 0, 25, 50. 75, 100% it's endless scrolling thru arcane values to get a bunch of values that are almost the same in modulation, no thanks no time for that
One minute in. Mentioned programming. Commented and left. Programming is not fun.
