Glad to see you using the Neutron - bcoz I have one of these so can follow. Didnt have a Sledge but enjoyed those direct straight forward no nonsense intro, theme tunes or waffle! :) Please CONTINUE this series more.....the Neutron isnt going away just yet! #2021 and still a fave!
Great work David Thanks. I have a question. On the back side there is an audio input. It is External output 1/4 " unbalanced. 100kOhm impedance..Can I use this connect my elctr. guitar or pocket operators or the korg mini synths like monotron or sound from my pc or smartphone?
You'd be amazed how many people get stuck and think they have a broken machine because they can't figure out how to make the first patch. It's the standard question on a Neutron forum I subscribe to.
Just got mine a week ago and I love it. If the gaudy red color throws you off you can get all kinds of good quality overlays that really improve the layout/visuals, and it’s easy to DIY the install. For $300 it’s really hard not to justify owning at least one. A friend of mine has 3 integrated into his modular setup, and has had generally great results
I think mine might have issues. I've set it as indicated in your vid, but it sounds nothing like yours it sounds like a cheap tone generator. I updated the firmware OK and downlaoded the Neutron app, but that won't connect. I tried loads of different patches from other people and got the same results I just get feeble, flat, lifeless tones out of my machine :-(
@@georgehall6051 looking forward to more vids in the series, fallen in love with my neutron and look forward to learning more from your great tutorials 👍🏻
HOW IN THE HELL DO I LINK MY KEYSTEP TO THE NEUTRON THEN TO MY INTERFACE TO HEAR IT THROUGH MY MONITORS?????????? Sorry Im yelling but I spent all this cashola and Im going nuts. I can get sound with headphones into the Neutron, but thats it lol. HELP!!!!!!!!!
You can connect the keystep to the neutron via midi or using the CV outs in the keystep. If you're using CV, connect pitch out from keystep to OSC1+2 input on Neutron which will send pitch info to both oscillators. Than, connect keystep's gate to both e.gates on the input for the Neutron either by 1) using the in of the mult and the two outs of the mult or 1) using a stackcables from the gate output to both e.gate inputs. This will provide gate information to both envelopes. There is an output for audio on the back of the Neutron that connects to your mixer/interface.
To all the silly people falling over him calling Wendy Carlos Walter....Technically he is right. At the time of recording that album, it still was Walter. Stop being overly PC.
I might take some hate for this.. but that Tomita record is bloody dreck - with one bizarre exception. It's just track after tasteless track, UNTIL... The Engulfed Cathedral, which is a truly beautiful, lyrical and masterly rendered piece, totally out of place on this stinking heap of a record. Just not sure what to make of it.
Why have I never seen this? Thank you so much for uploading this.
Many thanks to all involved. New Neutron owner and this series cuts my learning curve, letting me get on with making music. Cheers
Awesome! I watched your tutorials on the sledge even though I don't own one, and now I'm watching this even if I don't have a neutron.

Thanks for taking the time to do these. Looking forward to the series.
Thanks for this tutorial, brilliant synth
This will be a nice series. Thanks George.
Thank you
Great start! I am sooo looking forward to these (especially after my Neutron actualy arrives :-)
Thanks a lot for this series, much appreciated,
Looking forward to seeing you making this synth sing Dave!
Cheers

Alfred from Batman, has started teaching Modular :D .... this is good one, thank you for making this video...
Love your videos George!
Her name is WENDY.
Stop being annoyingly PC.....He is right, technically...At the moment of recording that album, it STILL WAS Walter.....Please stop your WOKE bullshit.
Idiot.

What neutron forum do you use?
He's back!
He is!
so what kind of music hardware would recommand to put in the midi thru ?
OK, anyone who mentions Isao Tomita and Snowflakes are Dancing, has me hooked.
Thank you so much!
Thinking about buying one. Should I? Is it good quality?

Ever figure it out?
@@jdssurf Yeah it was faulty, returned it and got a PolyD instead
@@hydorah lol, Nutron is pretty rad, I’ve never used the poly
Is it true Neutron is pretty silent?
Walter Carlos?
Thankfully she made a full recovery from that.
It's been Wendy for decades, no need for op to be a dbag
At the time of recording that album...YES.
decay in env 1 doesnt match the diagram above
You are correct - my mistake! Because the sustain level is on max then the decay setting won't make any impact!
