I love your videos not just because they’re inspiring. But also because i love hearing you say ‘BogAudio.’

[@OmriCohen-Music]

:)

[@afrosymphony8207]

no lies looool

[@nikolasgray1940]

TRUTH

[@Mogwai06]

my favorite is actually "oscillators." its calming for some reason...

[@SimonBosley]

my favourite is "module" followed by an "oh yeeeeeeeeahhhhhhhhhhhhh"

[@scotthampton3882]

Thanks for showcasing Hampton Harmonics modules again. Great video! 🙇🙇

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thank you so much for the lovely collection. I hope you will continue to V2 :)

[@timhildebrandsalestrainer]

This is exactly what I needed to flesh out the rest of my tracks. Glad to have you around sir. Please keep helping and being amazing.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Happy to help!

[@oscarvgaa]

I've been using VCV for over a year now and I didn't even know about the poly spread on bogaudio's mixer. I can't thank you enough, Omri.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad I could help!

[@MrRayinsf]

I was just asking about this exact kind of tutorial. Thanks Omri!!!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers!

[@kevinbesignanomusic5563]

Thank you Omri for another excellent video!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@yanlatawiec7519]

Using the sequencer to add rhythm with probability to the chords is just so cool :)

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers!

[@thelanavishnuorchestra]

It often takes me a couple of hours to watch one of your videos, because I pause and open VCV to try an idea from the video.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

That's great! I'm happy you find it inspiring :)

[@samb2543]

Every time I watch one of your videos I learn a whole bunch of excellent new stuff, you continue to blow my mind with awesome new ideas. Thanks for doing what you do!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

I appreciate it, thanks so much!

[@Almanacs]

Oh man, this is mindblowing! Thank you, thank you! 🖤👍🏽

Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge, always something new to discover in your approach to whatever

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Thoow]

I somehow lost track of VCV Rack, since I went for a physical rack. But still the sound of FM Operator is amazing. And everything polyphonic is so impossible with hardware... Thank you for keeping up with VCV. Will deep dive again, once 2.0 ships :-)

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Yeah, combining both worlds can be so much fun!

[@ursbasteck]

2nd example is beautiful! And Noise as CV control! I'd like to add _re:sequencing chords_ especially with modules like Chord-Key that I've found MindMeld's ShapeMaster to be the perfect sequencer for creating and then advancing through chord progressions, as it gives you a very clear readout of what your sequence is, or even your sequences.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

oh man, noise is so useful in so many ways... Great tip with ShapeMaster, thanks for that!

[@bakai2779]

So Helpful! Thank you

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Glad it was helpful!

[@crhkrebs]

Omri, you make very high quality content, but I must admit, this one is even more exceptional. I will have to go over every second of your video as it gives me many ideas for further experimentation. Thank you.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

I appreciate it!

[@brylie_music]

Very interesting chord progressions. The polymeter rhythm with crunchy drums was a nice addition 😎

[@OmriCohen-Music]

I appreciate it, thank you!

[@manueljf100]

oh yeah

[@DanMilway]

I didn't know about the "spread polyphony" feature in the Bogaudio mixer! That's gonna be useful, for sure.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Yeah, that can get quite interesting with panning and level modulation.

[@angelogrieco]

Another approach I like a lot is using Mother as a sequencer together with a shift register, and some mod source to "scan through" its child scales at regular intervals

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Great tip!

[@midnightstepper]

Love these, Omri. Thanks again! Can I ask though what are the four dots on the keys of the Chord key for?

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks so much! These dots are showing you which note is set on the different channels. 4 dots for 4 channels.

[@souvlak1]

hey sir, loving your vids:D and I wanna own a modular synthesis book just simply curious;; what you recommend¿

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thank you! Well, Patch&Tweak is a great book about modular. It's a bit expansive, but it's totally worth it. There are also patch examples from the book available in VCV.

[@marcpero7372]

Wow this is awesome ! Does this Hampton Harmonics Progress or something close to it exist in eurorack setup ?

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks! I'm not so sure about something like Progress in hardware but there's Harmonaig, which can help you out with chords. It's also available in VCV so you can check it out.

[@Subholik3]

progress is good for me xdd thanks

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers!

[@oliverorwell]

Where is the discord channel as mentioned at the beginning of the video? Love your vids

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks so much :) The Discord is open to all tiers on my Patreon page. Have a look here if you're interested - www.patreon.com/omricohen

[@rastcheck6037]

Great video as usual! :) The notseq16 seems even more easy to use than harmomiag. But I don't get it how using random to input notes produce 'right' sounding chords. This mean that once a choose a scale any four note I play will always produce 'right' chords? And also I don't get it how notes are choosen since in the colum of sequencer there are more then 4 notes. Sorry again for the basic questions!. I would to love see a tutorial about basic music theory, mixing and processing field recording in vcv rack :) :). You are so amazing great at teaching and every time you make a tutorial 'beginner friendly' my eyes shine hahah :)

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks! The NoteSeq has a built in quantizer. This means that the notes you programmed on the grid, will be corrected to a musical scale. For example, if you have C Major chosen, all of the notes will be in the C Major scale so each chord will have notes from this scale and depending on what notes are playing and in which order, you will get different chords that "fit" with each other.

[@rastcheck6037]

@@OmriCohen-Music thanks a lot for the explanation :) :) things are getting more clear now :)

[@andrasszabo4555]

What a nice collection of tricks! But Sha#Bang StochSeq4 can be also insanely useful in creating chords with its quantized V/OCT & INV outputs. Specially that all four tracks can be triggered differently! It's massive!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Oh man, yes, that's a great tip! Such an interesting sequencer...

[@andrasszabo4555]

@@OmriCohen-Music Yes,​ ​​Jeremy Muller did a great job. I specially enjoy seeing the four tracks simultaneously; just to know what's coming.

[@nate0398]

How do you use the 8 channel mixmaster with the 4 channel auxpander without getting an error saying to ise the 8 channel auxpander ?

[@OmriCohen-Music]

I think that's the smaller auxpander I'm using here

[@omarbrown2696]

Proper

[@hahaxolotl]

whats the difference between cardinal and vcv ? And can you create the same patches in both ?

[@OmriCohen-Music]

I don't have any experience with Cardinal, but I think it has a different set of modules, so it might be tricky to build the exact same patches.

[@vcvrackenespanol7360]

Hey Omri hugs from Cartagena Colombia, i have an unknown, why when i put the ARP module in polyphonic mode it does not give me a constant result of the melody, it gives it to me by pulses, why?

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Hi! Well, it sounds like the rest of the chain you're using is not polyphonic so you get only parts of the signal. How does your chain looks like?
