This hands down beats many of the geeky Zoia tutorials out there. Way too many get bogged down in the detail and lose me along the way. Could learn a lot from your approach, though I appreciate this is a lot of work to produce.
This video is absolutely brilliant. Beautiful, informative, audibly tactile (Ik that’s not a thing but it should be) and straight to the point. Thank you so much! Please make more, about anything
Im Autistic and its so hard to find a short demo that I can understand. They way it's animated and scripted is so clear to understand. I can now create a sequencer on my Zoia. 👍
It's a shame this video hasn't had more views, frankly - the work and craft put into it really pay off. It's visceral and beautiful, and I know it took a lot of effort that paid off well. Thank you!
This video is really impressive and very easy to understand, I really appreciate the details. Visual representation of what oscillators, vcas are etc. Super super stuff!! Thank you for building my understanding of not just the Zoia but synthesis as a whole
This is so insanely good O.o I hope some effect/synth company will hire you for their promo. It’s like « knobs » but prettier and better explained. Insanely good I tell ya
According to the Module Index on the website, the sequencer can have "up to 8 tracks". Can I please clarify if this means that a sequencer module actually has a single monophonic track and we can have up to 8 intances of the module; or, if this means the module actually has 8 tracks itself and we can have multiple instances of the module to effectively have 16 or 32 tracks, if we want?
Would you mind sharing a bit of info on how you set up the ratcheting? I've been screwing around with that output for a minute and am only getting naff grunts and rapid-fire blitzes of notes... It's not, well, ratcheting!
Tom Jepson Hey, so the ratchet sequence output is only connected to the VCA level and not the oscillator frequency. So you’d need to set up a multi track sequence, on the first track make a melody in CV mode and output as usual. On the second track switch to ratchet mode, add the values on the steps that correspond with the notes you want to affect from the first track and connect it to the VCA level. Try small numbers so you can hear what’s going on. Hope that helps!
@@fireghosting Ah, excellent! Thank you. I tried dropping it onto an ADSR and it went a bit squiffy. I'll rebuild with a VCA and see where I get. I love this pedal so hard.
@@tomexistsonline shorten the attack and decay, play with the sustain and release but lower values tend to make the ratcheting more pronounced Edit: you can also use the slew rate limiter to make a attack hold release-ish envelope by putting it at the end of the ratchet and before the vca, but again lower values will make the ratcheting more pronounced, higher values will act a bit like a weird tremelo.
dewberry30 I don’t think so, sorry! I ended up reusing the same sequencer patch to save time. It’s just a sequencer with an sv filter and the reverb lite though. I haven’t got anything on patch storage yet, but there’s a few of my patches (including sequencers) that are on the Zoia as default. Duck Friends is my favourite.
the work thgat goes into these is impressive

Thank you! I know exactly what you mean and it should always be a thing!
Wait a moment, all the time I keep thinking this is an official tutorial video from empress effects. So it's not? :) You have insane talent sir!!!

wowowowow this is the most artistic beautiful gear presentation video i might have EVER seen !
you ROCK !!!
INCRDIBLE
What??? This is probably the cutest and most astheticly pleasing tutorial I have ever seen. Keep the good work up!!
Using Gumby-type animation to teach is just awesome - thanks for this vid! I'm surprised I only discovered it just now...

You are so talented. This video is really, really good.
Be the next Knobs.
I he ever blows up, taking long enough.
I appreciate the time and effort that went into this video! Thank you!
lovely and informative!
This video is absolutely brilliant! Thanks for the sequencer tutorial; needed it.
I can’t believe this is just for kicks. Stellar work!
I came here to see if I could add spaces between my sequencer. Subbed for the quality content.
The best explanation of step seq work I ever see
Hey. You're doing great stuff. Keep up the good work!
This vid rules. The sound of the keyboard makes me happy too.
Amazing video man. Love the pixelation. Keep making whatever forever.
Dam this video is good. Just got my Zoia today but ive watched this video a numerous times before today.

Wow the amount of work that went into this beautiful thing. Just had to comment. Also I'm quitting youtube there's no point for me :-D
haha love this, we need more things like this coming!
This video is a work of art itself!
Really great, just LOVE your style!
This reminds of little big planet haha! I love of the sounds, textures and the visuals!
amazing video! how you handle the issue of the diference in volume (db) when you have low and high pitch notes in the same sequence?
Brilliant demo !!!
Wow this is good, Knobs level stuff
This is sooo nice!
Clever video. Hope you get more views!
Relaxing, magical and educational
such a great video 🙌🏼
How do you create gaps if the sequencer is a midi controller? Does VCA still work with this approach?
According to the Module Index on the website, the sequencer can have "up to 8 tracks".

Ty Quinn The latter, yes. You can have multiple instances of the module. Up to 8 tracks on each and as many modules as the CPU will handle!
@@fireghosting That's excellent. Thank you very much for the answer!

How do you connect the lfo to the sequence
Lfo out into Sequencer gate in
Omg! 😱so friggin awsome
Do you have the intro in Patch storage ? Please say yes haha

Dang! Purple cat head w arms ftw
こういうのもエレクトロニカというのでしょうか。
楽器とか一切もっていないし弾けないけども、
初めて興味わきました。単体でおっけーってことでしょうか？
お小遣い的に絶対予算オーバーだけど、じゅるり。
そしてなにより、クレイアニメ風？の映像がすばらすぃー。エクセレント。
Great pedal but for that kind of money the least they could do was provide some sort of protective csse.
thhhhhaaaannnnkkkkkyoooouuu!!!!
Knobs vibes
