    Haaa! I love that hand she waved around 46:00 when the kick comes in. You know she does that whether she’s being filmed, in a club, or totally alone. As any electronic musician would do when they make a sick transition.

    Thank you very much Ziv for having Julia as a guest on your channel and for giving her the opportunity to talk about her live and studio set up, her creative workflow and tips for performing live. It was great to see Julia so passionate about using modular synthesizers and make the best out of the Endorphines modules. It convinced me to explore further the modules that she is using and maybe purchase some of them to compliment my setup. Keep up the great work!

    Look at all those freaking cables.. I thought my minibrute2s was complex with 8 cables punched.. this is someone who has seriously studied and mastered sound design. There’s not too many chicks that I know that are masters of modular.. from one female to another.. my hats.. no.. I’m bowing.

    • @hermask815
      @hermask815 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      But how many of these cables are actually performing a purpose?
      I have only fooled around with modular synths in software.
      When I was finished, I pulled some of the virtual cables and the sound didn’t change.the ones that changed I put back, obviously.
      If cables are used to change the flow of sequences…. I’m mentally too lazy for that.Then I’d rather use anything with a piano roll or something along the lines of a keystep.

    I have to admit, as soon as I see a euro rack setup I start feeling nauseous and dizzy, I just feel it in the gut and from there on all I can hear is myself saying that’s impossible, hopefully once I complete reading “How to program any synth” I’ll fell less intimidated and ultimately less nauseous.
    I still don’t know, once all the connections are made, can the case be closed, I think this is where a great deal of my OMG 😱 comes from.

    Great video! Many thanks, Julia, for explaining your setup! I have a question though. I understand that you trigger both Queen of Pentacles and Sample drum with the drum sequencer of Beatstep pro. Seq1 goes to Roland 1m, I assume. And with seq2 you control all the other oscillators? Furtherrrr Generator and Godspeed? Or am I missing something?

    • @JuliaBondar
      @JuliaBondar 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      @nimets123 That's all correct. SEQ1 plays Roland over MIDI channel 1 and also same pitch CV controls Godspeed voice + modulator of Furthrrrr Generator for melodic thru-zero fm. SEQ2 plays main melody and its pitch CV goes into the carrier of FG.
