Adding 3 Vco's to Moog Mother 32

[@Genshi]

I've owned three Mother-32s since the first week they were out... but I never tried this. Pretty clever! Nice work!

[@chrisstrobel3439]

This is an excellent video for Mother 32 noobs ...... please post more Mother 32 tutorials like this and thankyou!

[@mzekonis]

Can't begin to tell you how much I enjoy your videos. Thanks.

[@edwardprue]

Thanks, Oz! Haven't tried the LFO audio yet, but I really like the tone you got from it, so now I'm gonna try it. BTW, if you haven't already tried this, the LFO will go even higher into the audio range by patching an external signal into the "LFO Rate" jack on the patch panel. I think the on-board knob gets you up to 300Hz max (or so,) but the external signal can get you up to 650Hz. Happy tweaking!

[@wellurban]

The LFO is indeed a true VCO: it goes up to audio rate, is voltage-controlled, and tracks 1v/octave. As you show, it's useful for enriching the sound by detuning it against the main VCO, creating intervals or beat frequencies. However, the pulse wave you added first is not another VCO: it's derived from the main VCO, and will always have the same pitch, just like the multiple outputs on the A110. It can add timbral variety, but not beating or intervals or FM. If you do want a third independent VCO, set the VCF into self-oscillation. Between that, the LFO and the main VCO, you can indeed get 3 VCOs, albeit with some limitations.

[@sakoner]

How do you do to set the VCF into self-oscillation?

[@zacharyrohrer7976]

If you crank the resonance all the way up, the filter will play a sine wave at the cutoff frequency. You can also track this to the keyboard.

[@Subtlenimbus]

The LFO on the Mother 32 does not track at 1 volt per octave. It only stays in tune over a very short span of notes when used as an audio oscillator.

[@patrizio7]

One of the best Mother toots out there. Thanks

[@Individual_two]

Nice demo! Being new to the Mother, this is very helpful!

[@roboticgirl]

Thank you for posting this, I had so much fun

[@archangelmichael5908]

You are right! That is effin awesome! I always knew Mother 32 was way more than surface level

[@Larry30102]

Master of the Mother!!

[@newtronix]

Thanks for conjuring this up Oz. XX

[@eddraper]

I always get a kick out of your videos.... wish you made more.

[@Subtlenimbus]

I do this with a Subharmonicon: send it KB and GATE and you get effectively 6 more oscillators which can all be fine tuned, or pitch quantized.

[@saardean4481]

Very cool video. Would only wish for Line recording. A lot of detail gets lost like that. Especially when you do teh mixing examples i believe there is more happening than the echo of the room allows the micro to catch

[@introvertical_1931]

Thank you mann.. U r my saviour

[@iscariah71]

South F u r welcome

[@johnn2493]

Cool, thanks! There's a lot to do using that patch panel...!

[@gneissguy4342]

It is "FUCKING AWESOME!!!" indeed. Thanks for posting!

[@thenarrowbrushvideos]

Thank you for making this video! Question for you, is there anything special about the moog oscillator? What vcos would I need to pair with the mother 32 to get "That moog sound" Thanks!

[@iscariah71]

The Narrow Brush Thanx, i use a doepfer and the MI braids, sounds good.

[@thenarrowbrushvideos]

@@iscariah71 So I don't need to cough up $400 for a VCO then?

[@iscariah71]

The Narrow Brush absolutly not

[@thenarrowbrushvideos]

@@iscariah71 Thank you so much!!!

[@darkitz]

You've made me very happy indeed. :)

[@indiefilmcomposer]

can you assign just the lfo or just the oscillator 1 to step sequencer , and cv into to other, in other words two separate musical statements

[@korsmakolnikov]

I love this machine!!!! Great video!

[@halberkstresser]

it IS fucking awesome! well done!!! very useful!!

[@Skrap87]

Great video man!

[@paulfabian7274]

Very helpful! Thanks!

[@LBiancardi123]

"That's fucking awesome" lol. Sounds like a robot on ketamine to me pal.

[@remotegod255]

lOLOLOlollololOLoloLOLoll o o o o oo o o oo o ll o l o l l indeed

[@syncworm]

Sounds great!

[@theTerribleFamiliar]

"THAT'S FOWKIN AUWSOME!" lol. This is a great video. Thanks.

[@PM-yz8fx]

Unfortunately you can't track the LFO with the pitch, on various octaves they are out of tune, you can tune the the first note but then it will be out of tune by progressing with the pitch. The same happens viceversa. So I guess you do need an external VCO one and also a type that can be fine tuned.

[@skormm-v7z]

Hey mate! What if i wanted to do the same with Braids? Moog EXT.AUDIO to Braids FM?

[@iscariah71]

i don t have braids, but it should be quite the same

[@onsturicheitchaos8124]

Very learnfull, thanks

[@musicandlife3167]

You're brilliant

[@ect0morphic]

Many thanks for the tutorial brand new to modular having so much fun with it :) Probs hook up my tt-303 to it as it has a CV gate patch on the back, any recommendations on patch point to use it on the m32?

[@iscariah71]

Aled Burrows gate in gate out

[@pizzamanmep]

Noob question: Is it possible to add external VCO coming from a digital synth such as a Roland Boutique or a Waldorf Blofeld? Will the sound be loud enough? Thanks

[@iscariah71]

meparadis didn t try sorry

[@ZenMountain]

Great! Thank you!!

[@josedealva4205]

awesome way to wrap a video, dont need to get new stuff just learn new tricks! smartsmart!!

[@lockyp204]

Probably a silly question. But when midi syncing the mother32 to the analog four..That only takes up one voice of the analog four yeah? So you still have 3 voices left on the A4.?

[@iscariah71]

exactly

[@iscariah71]

+iscariah71 u should use cv

[@lockyp204]

+iscariah71 How would that differ with available voices, say compared to using midi sync..Sorry if this is all pretty obvious

[@lockyp204]

+iscariah71 And thanks for the vid..Very cool

[@iscariah71]

+luap ekcol u can work with a choice of much more parameters in cv, don t forget to active your fx track level

[@Abandonedmachine]

Great video and nice patching! Was the audio recorded with a mic in the room? For improvement, you could try mixing it with the line out and also open up the filter a bit more to get a glimpse of the higher harmonics when mixing the LFO sine with the more harmonically rich saw/pulse coming from the VCO.

[@Novaliz78]

A question from a noob: When you add another OSC like the doepfer is it affected from the moog filter too?

[@iscariah71]

yep,

[@psysword]

Hahhahahah/ Love your "Fuckin'" Awesome! Merck recoup, moniseur!

[@selcukyusufergen]

Great! Thanks.

[@Cavscout101]

Was dying for you to tweak the glide.

It’s pronounced moʊɡ, NOT mo͞og. After all these years, people still can’t honor the man by saying his name correctly!!!

[@iscariah71]

Frank Plughoff better to honor him with making music Mister!!!

[@RSBlastoise383]

I liked your video, but two bits of constructive criticisms: rack your modules, and it's pronounced "mogue," not "mooog". Moog rhymes with rogue. Cheers!

[@remotegod255]

Whoa! Your mother is a man? Lol 11:15
