- In February I had the pleasure of performing in the brand new events space hosted at Signal Sounds, Glasgow.
I performed a live set and followed it with a workshop/patch breakdown/Q&A.
It was a great space to perform and present in. Great audience with some excellent questions!
The performance was included as my personal contribution to the recent compilation published on the Instruō Record Label.
Please check it out here:

This is the evolution of modular, being used in a proper contemporary composition as a live instrument going through all possible sound worlds from ambient to proper noise hardcore. Next next level. Bravo maestro!
Might just be the best musician and modular company person.
Words!
Hands down one of the best modular compositions Ive heard. Very inspirational and to be honest, I love how hands on you are during a performance. I always am looking for how to make music more expressive. Love the screams!!! Well done!
Thanks Brian!
Really appreciate it ☺
🔥
sick! nice nodular core noise
This can only be described as wicked sick
This is mind blowing. Ive been playing around with oboe + modular and this is giving me all sorts of creative ideas. I gotta get my hands on one of those tape deck modules
Magnificent emotion filled Sound Piece.💡🎶🎛👏🏽🌱🕯💥
at 9th minutes , my arms fur dressing up ! so emmotional mate !
also really love the changing chord kick !
Jason is such a genius and a wonderful human being.
Thanks! This is unreal, great open discussion too.
i love this live set so much Jason ! musically perfect + the Q&A after is so interesting ! just
wonderful
i am so looking forward to having some instruo modules in my collection. that rack is beautiful and so is your mix of musical and technical talents. plz don't ever stop making em cause it's gonna take time to afford them and i know they're gonna be worth the wait
i love it soo much, and i love it btw. that u explain it with ur skatches, looks soo good sounds great… i think u should sell them as posters🤤❤️
What a thing of beauty you’ve created. Was surprising the left turns this piece takes 😂 Thanks for recording and publishing this one. Must feel good to play your own music on your own systems.
Thank you so much! ☺
I really am loving performing with all instruo systems! It was a goal for a long time and the module range makes for a very versatile instrument at this stage!
Thanks for watching!
Superb performance and presentation.
fantastic. thank you for this
Freaking brilliant
If there were a Instruo violin I’d pick up playing after 16 years hiatus. Built in processing, cv and aux outputs 🤩
My luthier skills aren’t up to scratch I’m afraid! 😂
I do have recommendations for electric violin solutions though. My two electrics are fitted with barbera 5 string pickups. They have a piezo per string.
For my acoustic I use a pickup called The Band by a company called headway. Really natural sounding acoustic pickup!
très belle composition et interprétation _ bravo
Molto bello tanti complimenti gran suono!
💯 exquisite
Damn that’s pretty
This might be one of the most beautiful modular synths partly due to the cables
Best-looking modules out of any maker, imo. Just the info you need, easy to read the controls, great layout design, nice feel and construction on knobs/sliders. Gorgeous with the gold/ebony finish, too. Tasteful all around. I can’t always afford everything i’d like to have from Instruo, but i fully support independent instrument makers creating professional-level tools with top-quality fit and finish.
I personally prefer colored stackable cables, to keep track of signal types, but there’s no doubt the gold cables look primo! 👌
Sick
I love it so much! Really pushing the bounds. What are you triggering with the Larachd foot pedal is it a sampled drop?
Thanks Dan!
The main big kick is a I-ō47 filter patched as a kick.
Trigger to strike input and a decay envelope over pitch. The whole thing is going through at least one channel of tanh saturation and I think being envelope followed to sidechain various voices in the patch.
I have my full patch notes and score saved somewhere :)
I love this! Amazing music and walkthrough.
If I could make a request, id love a slightly less professional level patch-with-me series with Instruo. The Instruoctional videos are amazing, just a little less advanced.
The Instruōctional videos are always going to be quite deep. The live ones are probably more so because it’s part of a longer performance.
I am keen to get back to some smaller scale patches with full on camera rebuilds. They’re a bigger video production job though.
I do also teach a sound design course here in Glasgow. :)

@@instruo nice, thanks Jason! The subs link looks enticing. I'll check it out. I flippin' love Instruo gear, and get great results with my limited experience. Then I see you play and it blows my mind!
*points finger, I want thaaat.
Needs more patch cables
imagine having an instrument like that without a million threaded cables covering the entire interface/knobs
Its ridiculous -- you'd use colour coded cables wouldnt you?!
gotta turn up the opacity on those cables
Cable ties kept them out the way reasonably well.
It wouldn’t make any sound if the cables weren’t patched though 🙃
♥
yes.
YES
@@Orangetronic yes!
Please do some more drum samples loops for us Ludbadh users ❤
Deadly. i'd love to hear some techno out of that patch
Loved this. Amazing instruments and composition. Are the patch notes/diagrams available for download?
Incredible stuff! I love the combination of organic and synthetic elements, the contrast creates huge depth! Which module is being used as the pre-amp for the violin? I need something like this
Thanks!! ☺️
The pedals are a noise gate into a fishman aura spectrum DI. That’s then going through a passive isolator (needed for ground isolation), then into the Instruō Larachd module which is the interface from line level to modular level.
Fairly elaborate setup… but this performance worked better with the electric violin vs my acoustic with a pickup, which had too much risk of feedback at volume.
@@instruo Thanks! I really appreciate the in-depth answer, answered a few questions in fact :)
That is a proper spaghetti patch.
“Set and Forget” Whohahaha!
Flashbacks...
🪶 👆
missed the premier... gutted 😞
And yet, here it is.
was that limmy in the outro? inspired either way
It was!
I think he was ranting about TikTok on stream and I thought it would make for a fun ending! 😂
@@instruo class, im sure he'd be flattered. its hard to catch his streams here on the west coast of the USA, but he's done a lot to convince me to visit glasgow someday
Does anyone know where that case comes from or what it is?

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen...
i didn't know jason momoa was into modular.
😂
I'd love to know how much that rack cost...
troubleshooting that would be a nightmare
It was!
That’s why I do full patch transcriptions so I know what’s going on and where to look it there are issues.
@@instruo mannnn that is like the opposite of what most musicians do
I love your musical technology
You are certainly a brilliant person
I come from the concert scene (guitar drums etc) and am 5 years old in the synth scene so coming to a show fully patched in such a fragile way is mindblowing
Like sure pedalboards are pretty fancy but usually pretty stable
I feel like travelling with that eurorack style is just asking for problems
@@daneguitarist1 thanks!!
The system did travel patched but it’s pretty solid.
I use ties to bundle all the cables and that adds a surprising amount to structural integrity to the thing.
There are some critical controls that I had to tune on site. Oscillator frequencies etc.
But it’s pretty robust.
This was actually the second performance of this patch.
First gig being in December, this set was in Feb.
I did the transcription during rehearsals a couple of days before the performance so I could relearn the instrument to play the score again.
Cable management/cable ties can definitely make a system safely portable :)
@@instruo hell yeah man! I know you are big and huge! If you ever want to do a quick collab in any way (ambient track or whatever) my channel is gerbil hamster records. I am an very non famous award winning composer and producer lol
Who makes that case??
Art for the ears in Canada :)
Any chance to see a modulargrid layout of this case? Would love to put together something similar.
I've still never actually made any modulargrid layouts 😅
I'll be restructuring this rack once I'm back from superbooth. Please ping me and email and I'll send over some clear pictures of the system when the cables are clear.
There are a couple of modules I'll need to blur though ;)
@@instruo Amazing! I just you a message via the instruo site w/ my email address.
comon...really.???
simple smapling with out all the lights and crap can do all of that
nothing new!!!
Yes, really bill 😅
Of course anyone can sample some violin and modular bits and throw together a listenable track, but this was an impressive live performance wirh some fairly complex patches. Not really just "simple sampling" in my view. 😉
😂
Or I maybe just mimed the whole thing? 🫢
@@instruo that's possible. Good performance either way though 😄
