Acid 303 Sound with Surge

[@brucekeen6699]

Surge rocks, their distortion is great. You definitely make VCV worthwhile. At first I got lost with all the modules. I usually use HW but being able to integrate VCV with my modular makes it more useful and keeps the banker happy.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Yes, Surge really take VCV to a new level...

[@petermican]

Oooooohhh Yeaaaaaah, very nice patch, love these SURGE modules, thanks for sharing ;-)

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers, Peter!

[@baconpaul5772]

I always learn something watching you patch surge - and I know surge pretty well lol. Great video as always!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks so much :)

[@StefanoLanzavecchia]

While playing the bass in a hangar: "I think I already have some reverb here..." :-D Reverb is life!

[@nebulance4289]

For anyone looking on this one, try using the filter mode in 18dB, which is what the TB-303 filter was in. It should make it just a little closer. Happy patching :)

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Great tip!

[@gelatinous6915]

This is some seriously dark, gritty, filthy shit. I love it.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Cheers!

[@DeanPachano]

I have really been enjoying your videos. So informative, I'm learning a lot from you!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thank you so much!

[@LaHypeDuTrain]

you can clearly give a bit more room for the small jam at the end, it is good music by itself 🥰otherwise, as always it is inspiring and well explained! cheers!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks!

[@dieterstubler6269]

Great video again. Fell in love with the surge xt modules right after the got available. Like the fluencerator I never used before. Would be nice to have a seed input on it to be used on generate to allow for deterministic random sequences. Maybe OrangeLine DEJAVU can do the same in more controlled way by sequencing seeds and adding variation using MORPH.

Nice one Omri 💫👍

Dang !! Site down ...

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks! Which site?

@@OmriCohen-Music VCV, it wasn't down for long though.

Wonderful Omri :-)

Thanks!

With the revival of acid lines in everything from house, electro and jungle there has been a load of 303 acid tutorials but so many of them are based on presets or imitation hardware, this is the first one that really breaks down that 303 sound and how to freak it nicely. Thank you 🙏🏻

[@OmriCohen-Music]

I appreciate it, thank you!

[@frederikclement7795]

Fantastic!

Hello, Omri 🍄

Nice work - as always. ;)

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks!

[@ruslyakov]

Awesome 🙌

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks!

[@Merijn2468]

Great tutorial again! Thanks. But here is a burning question for already a few years and I haven't been able to find it on google: sometimes you say something like "oppalach" ... What does it mean?

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks so much! Oppalach is something like oopsy daisy :)

Anyone know if it's possible to roll back to an older release with specific VCV Rack modules? A libc.so6 Linux dependency I couldn't figure out a way to resolve on my laptop has the latest releases of SurgeXT non-functional on my system. There was some window where whatever came out in Dec '22 worked though. (I think it supported some pre v.19 part of that library? That was then dropped later on.) It's a little frustrating getting that taste, and then not being able to do anything with that specific set of unique features. To be honest I wish VCV had a dependency check before pushing updates that could break things, because knowing you may run into unresolved bugs (just have a disclaimer about further support) is better than nothing at all.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Hi! Have a look here - github.com/surge-synthesizer/surge-rack/releases You can find the various files, I believe. I hope it works for you...

[@pauljs75]

@@OmriCohen-Music Thanks. Had to roll back to the one from November of last year, but at least it's something. (If there's bugs for those modules, it's on me I suppose.) I guess that's part of the fun of running an older Linux release that has dependency gaps in the update process.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

@@pauljs75 I'm happy it works! And I hope things will get fixed soon...

[@baconpaul5772]

@pauljs75 linux binaries are hard but the vcv rack library version should be compatible very far back. If it isn't though the code is super easy to build if you have a rack SDK and compiler and cmake. I'm not sure what changed with the rack SDK in the interim though. But linux binaries are hard!

[@FlagAudio]

Nice!

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Thanks!

[@timofuturum]

how did you change the color of the cable while dragging it? :D

[@marcelschaufelberger9637]

use the module cable color key from inklen (or wm-101 from submarine) and hit a numberkey.

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Yeah, I use the Inklen module for this - library.vcvrack.com/Inklen-CableColourKey

[@ldlework]

my face at 7:47 :O

[@ivanmassimo4769]

still i dont get how to install extra modules to the rack

[@OmriCohen-Music]

Which ones? The ones I used here are all in the library

[@ivanmassimo4769]

@@OmriCohen-Music are we talking about VCV rack 2 ? if so i'm still to understand how to install extra modules.. and i do have several of'em

[@richardsomerville5725]

No unison only 1 osc on a TB

[@Sweetyspot]

can you recreate somehow Avalon Bassline, some modern 303 clone? oscilator + sub ocs => filter(cutof reso tracking) + filter envelope (env mod env decay acc decay accent) + amplifier (vca decay) + modulation envelope (attack decay vcf depth vca depth)

[@OmriCohen-Music]

I'll have a look :)

[@OmriCohen-Music]

@@Sweetyspot Yeah, I played with it a few times but I'm not so sure if people are interested in something like this...

@@OmriCohen-Music I’m sure that a lot of users will be interested, but yeah, somehow i think bitwig related content should be posted in bitwig community discord
