[@evildead2002]

The Bass on these things is ridiculous. Exactly what I was after lol.

[@monomakes]

Can't beat the doof!

[@Alaska1925]

The "doof wave", from now on

[@Chasing_Thoughts]

Doof

[@MattGreerMusic]

Guy goes into a music store and says, "I'm looking for a synth." Salesman: "What kind?" Guy: "Something that has a lot of DOOF to it." Salesman: (grins) "I've got just the thing."

[@TheScreamingFrog916]

LOL, good one :-)

[@matthewevans3718]

yall know what oscilliscope hes using? i really qanna get one on my computer to help me learn me synth-ineering but idk really how to go about that and wasnt sure if i could like even do that. new to synths if u cant tell

[@fortheloveofnoise]

D00F

[@scottfernelius9590]

Nick says this version allows for a more mellow and less aggressive vibe, but I always picture those who gravitate toward this type of synth as tantamount to the Dave Chappelle rendition of Rick James thrashing about on a couch, yelling expletives. Which I mean as a total complement. Thrash on.

[@redirishmanxlt]

+Scott - Great analogy, I love it!

[@tillschroder6992]

Ur right lmao

[@vmitchell1131]

Yay! Been fiending for a new sonic lab!

[@emnigmamachine]

I'm liking the new Arturia line. The old stuff never really grabbed me, but this seems like it's refined what made the Arturia stuff "unique" in the first place.

[@willdorak985]

Sonic State makes some of the best demos. I also love the straight to the point and detailed descriptions :-). The Microbrute 2/2S sounds insane with reverb pedals.

[@KR1298508]

Totally agree, throw a reverb with an overdrive/distortion pedal and you get some magically intense sounds. I’ve got a moog matriarch which is an incredible machine, but the arturia really adds gritty tones that compliments the harmonically rich moog sound.

[@theinterruptor]

Watch out for stacked synths starting at 14:44 ! :-)

[@ToyKeeper]

I cringed when he did that... especially since he didn't even take the patch cables out first. Quick way to damage the cables and the jacks. :(

[@AdamTheAd-vanc3d]

I like the fact the s.p filter has been tamed , however i think the tendacy as with most synths, people tend to crank the res all the way up. Great review , great synth.

[@umonox]

we should also point out that dialing the resonance in doesnt kill the bottom end ;-) this is still an issue with lots of synths these days. very nice to see that Arturia took care of this as well. now these things just have to be available pretty soon :-) im getting the 2S, thats already for sure!

[@fortheloveofnoise]

thank you for pointing that out, helps me decide to go for it

[@weakbrainthrombosis]

I have 30 guitar/bass fix pedals and 5 amps. I just bought my first analog synth(moog sirin),and I am already on here watching videos. Thanks for acknowledging what I was beginning to suspect, this is some sort of weird addiction.

[@gusgarcia4461]

Absolutely, I confess, I’m a total junkie, ‘I Just Can’t Get Enough’ of these synth videos.

[@SynthgodXXX]

Very nice demo of the Arturia MiniBrute 2!! Thank you for this!!!

[@LordMcMPA]

12:03 - 12:07 he got totally carried away and could have played with different patching options for hours. How absolutely precious to see that passion coming through that probably got him into this line of work in the first place. :D :D :D At 12:07 it really looks like he got an external cue "dude...stop fiddling...continue with the review!" and is all like 'oh shit!! yea...where was I". Ah, to do something you truly love is living in the promised land.

[@josephmills3864]

I want this in a bad way! Sounds great, looks cool, priced right.

[@davidpickvance1]

I totally agree with the Oscillator 2 tune knob being too close to the LP Filter knob…I’ve grabbed it by accident 3 times now during a live gig! And gave it a solid twist. Ye Gods!!!

[@Joona.Lukala]

Sounds huge on the studio monitors. KZbin has better sound than you think :) or at least the weight of the sound is coming thru !

[@MattGreerMusic]

Joona Lukala Yeah I've got some good cans on and it sounds great to me.

[@liveinparis8418]

This thing is fantastic after a few lengthy workouts. All the classic techno, fm, space etc tones can be absolute perfection with this instrument.

[@stephenjames4937]

What a great review, as usual. Mr Batt, please consider also reviewing the Behringer Model D. It's selling like hot cakes. I love mine, and I would review it myself but (a) I haven't the video facilities and (b) I don't know the technical aspects of synthesisers yet ("This knob doesn't seem to do anything"). So a review from yourself would shed a lot of light, I think.

[@dionysiaex5538]

Envelopes? Snappy. Pulse? Width.

[@Digiphex]

Was hoping they added presets to make life easier like companies started to do back in the 80’s. It has become different enough from the competition that now one might hesitate deciding between this and a BSII. I’d still rather have a BSII but maybe this as well in the other format.

[@coldwar1977]

BS2 has considerably dropped in price, get one for sure! It's a LOT of synth for the money.

[@Cylume.]

10:13 I hear a little bit of Depeche Mode "New Life" trying to come through there. :p

[@sauce_aux]

All synths need plenty of Doof!

[@monomakes]

Great minds... hehe

[@WokeUpScreaming]

Please tell me you're doing the Neutron soon too! I've never been so torn between two pieces of gear in my life!

[@leo.nordmann]

just get both and put the neutron in the rack :)

[@WokeUpScreaming]

Amæthron I would if I could afford it. :( Looking at the prices it looks like it's definitely gomna be the neutron haha

[@MarctheDarc]

Excellent review Nick 🙂 And top marks to Arturia. The existing 'Brutes were already cool equipment in their own right. But this, particularly with the RackBrute added, seems to be in a league of its own. And yet again a year with Arturia stealing the show. Usually, when people rave about semi-modular patchbays, they seem a bit "meh" to me. For instance the MicroBrute. The MiniBrute actually had far more advanced and capable modulation routings in the form of knobs and toggle switches. So if you weren't gonna actually interface the MicroBrute with some (semi-)modular gear, it was a considerable step back. But the MicroBrute got way more attention. This time it looks like they've put enough thought and effort into the patchbay, that it really makes sense, even standalone. Overall it also comes with enough features that it feels complete and capable on its own. By comparison, when I tried the Mother-32, I was always missing another oscillator, another modulator, another etc. It sounds great and seems high quality, but for me atleast, the Mother-32 feels dependent on interfacing with other gear to truly make sense. It was awesome paired with the Roland System-500, but not really by itself. Note: I know people doing amazing things with it, I just couldn't get it there. The MiniBrute2 seems well raised above such issues. I think it's a stroke of genius to make something as independently strong as the MiniBrute2, and then with the addition of the RackBrute, make it so obvious and inviting to add to it. Rarely have I GAS'ed as bad as I do for the MiniBrute2S + RackBrute. Eurorack have been a long standing temptation, which I've intentionally avoided buying into, although doing several small tests. But this is the first time it's trying for me to avoid it. Arturia would do well to bring out their own line of modules, or at the very least strike some kind of partnership deal with a company already making interesting modules.

[@berniesanders5419]

Arturia and mutable instruments would be unstoppable! Literally I would take out a second mortage

[@HotStrange]

Ben Minor wow it’s crazy you say they bc they did Colab for the MicroFreak!

[@HotStrange]

Coming back to this review a year later to decide if I finally want to get it and it’s crazy because Arturia totally stole the show this year with the MicroFreak as well. The Microbrute is the synth that got me into synths and semi-modular. It was my first synth ever and I loved it. Now many years later and I’m about to buy the MB2, and already own a MicroFreak and Drumbrute.

[@cray56]

Seems to be slightly Buchla inspired = Easel, 259 vco and AD loop

[@milk_bath]

Will there be a future video/s demonstrating sounds made with the patch panel?

[@alphanumeric1529]

You mean like a real review? Haha!

[@sharg0]

About the issues with Y-tube and audio quality, could you record sound samples as a separate file (and refer to them as sample 1, 2... in the video)?

[@index7787]

R K most manufacturers put stuff on SoundCloud, do recommend

[@Mark_Ocain]

I may be interested in this ...it's a big leap from the original minibrute

[@DelChincoEnrico]

Stop that reverb !!!! So annoying ...

[@nobel11]

One can never have enough "doof"

[@mubodude]

Brilliant review as always, Nick! Just scored the MiniBrute 2 keys version along with the 6U rack (which is huge, but wanted max expansion). I just love it. It's my first Arturia product, besides a Beatstep Pro still in the box somewhere and having fiddled with a MatrixBrute in a shop (also a fantastic synth!). They really did a home run with this one. It gives off the vibe of Synthi meets Moog with everything in between, sonically and aesthetically. Absolutely beautiful and built like a tank, to boot! AND, a massive setup for well under a grand.

[@felipesigne901]

I heard that the minibrute oscillators mixers overdrive halfway up the faders, is ti true of minibrute 2 also? anyway i'm always a little surprised to see demos pushing them to the max..

[@alphanumeric1529]

I REALLY was uninspired by the sound of the first Minibrute. I almost never sell synths or samplers that I buy, I always find a particular use. But I sold this synth, and I didn't even regret it afterwards. Anyone else feel the same way about the first minibrute? But my question is, a year and a half after the release of this synth and this video, how did this synth do in the market? A lot sold? Are studios across the world filled with Minibrute 2's? Does this brute sound better than the first? Honestly, I shot out my minibrute vs several vst's, and the vst's won out for SOUND and ease of use/convenience. I cannot say that about my other synths. But I am mildly interested in the 2, the sequencer is a really vital addition to the synth, really opens up possibilities but then with the limited sequence storage, it seems more like a studio piece rather than a live piece. I don't know, your thoughts?

[@fortheloveofnoise]

VST....ease of use? Well you are defiantly Yin if I am Yang.

[@Miyuk9p]

Why didn't you review the sequencer edition. That one is so much better and more interesting with the mighty sequencer instead of the basic keyboard with a few tiny options above..

[@robertszordykowski4919]

He talks about it a bit at 14:30

[@remychadwick2467]

How would this stack up against a Sub 37? Sounds warmer than previous brutes, and loads more modulation options (and second osc). I guess it would be fiddlier live, but so much cheaper - and more expandable

[@alphanumeric1529]

No answer for your question. I'd like to know what people think as well. And I'm looking at a Moog Grandmother, and I suppose you have to consider this synth in that space. But the first minibrute was a pos, in my opinion, so I don't have a favorable opinion of this brute, or Arturia for that matter.

[@paultorbert6929]

Struggling...... brute2 ?, neutron ?..... the neutron will make for fewer meals of ramen......

[@velocipede808]

I'm with you. I think the MB 2s is going to inspire my creativity more because of the integral sequencer. Then, the neutron, then a eurorack case, then…

[@nrosko]

if the brute 2 was £100 i would certainly buy it, but for now the Neutron seems like a crazy deal.

[@astrophonix]

Both. I want to get the MB2 then the Neutron, they more or less match in length so the patchbays line up nicely, interpatching together to create a monster megasynth with 4 oscillators and 3 to 5 LFOs!

[@Zinfidel1]

I love envelope looping. It should be a standard feature on every synth. Also, resonance modulation.

[@HiGlowie]

The looping envelope, the larger patchbay, the keystep-like sequencer..I’m in!

[@CHRISDJS72]

Had this synth for a year and love it more every time I use it, just wish I had more time

[@Broomfondle]

Yay... F.F.T. is back! I'm loving the Minibrute 2 and yeah, the pedal makes it glisten. Thanks Nick for the fulsome zen like atmospherics.

[@bitley]

Soft bass & lead sounds using the original Minibrute, with careful programming it can be really warm. I was looking for as much "Roland SH" as possible when doing this. Live tweaking of the lead / solo synth. bitley.bandcamp.com/track/artyrua

[@cartertakesatrain7108]

Late to the party but this demo caused me to 'pull the Trigger ' Great demo might have to plump for the Ventris. You're a cruel man Mr Batt and no mistake, dont know how you manage to sleep at night 😅

[@TH3_FURY]

20:47 ...I think something has fallen...2S ??? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo !!! Great demo !

[@sonicidiot]

No one touches the reviews here. Thank you!

[@patientzero4889]

"Might not come across on KZbin, put some reverb on it" - Nick Batt

[@HotStrange]

Doof

[@KoshDukai]

I'm finding the "rounded" waveshapes a bit surprising, because I'm not seeing that on my scope. Stupid question: What's the audio path used? Could the pedal be "rounding" the waveshapes i.e. the pedal's bypass mode not being transparent enough (if still used on that audio path to the scope)?!

[@index7787]

Kosh Dukai that was my first thought

[@AdamTheAd-vanc3d]

Kosh Dukai Maybe they change due to how hard you drive them. ?. I Noticed on the triangle Nick had the triangle crank all the way up. I know on the brute 1 if you drive the mixer hard enough the waves start to really saturate the vca and round off the sharp edges.

[@KoshDukai]

It'll drive a bit, yes, but not enough to get a Saw/Sqr and even the Tri so "rounded" as shown on the scope there. Guess I'll have to do some short video with that... and take the opportunity to show the MB2's OSC Hard Sync capabilities, that I love and haven't seen any video properly showing it :)

[@sonicstate]

I did check that, the scoped signal was the same prior to adding the pedal. path was: MB2-> DI->split 1-> Scarlett i/f split 2-> audio for video

[@KoshDukai]

ok, thanks. Well, I guess I'll have to "show mine" then :)

[@JammyGit]

@ 14:48 - I don't really know about the workings of synths but I'm tempted by the sounds of the MiniBrute 2 and might buy one as my first hard synth. When you say that the MiniBrute 2s doesn't have a keyboard, I do have a MIDI keyboard controller that I've used with my soft synths in Studio One, so could I use that keyboard to play a MiniBrute 2s? My MIDI controller is an Alesis VI 49 (I think) and has 49 keys instead of the Arturia's 25 on the MiniBrute 2.....it has decent keys on it, plus a shit load of knobs etc and it'd be handy if I could use it to control a hard synth.Plus I also have an Akai MPK 25 so it seems like a good idea to me if I could save on the wear and tear of a synth that will potentially cost me more money than the MIDI controllers did. or doesn't it work like that? Cheers 👍

[@thomaskolb8785]

Finally! A new review by Nick and what a lovely little synth. Thank you! BTW, I love the pantomime of the Brute Factor at 4:35! :-)

[@Envergure]

It's filter "topology," not "topography" FYI.

[@shane9245]

Ok, this will probably sound crazy, but here’s how I got here. I went on an old android phone video, went on the channel of an 11 year old comment, and then went into liked videos, then chose the most recent.

[@SPAZZOID100]

Somehow the aesthetics are not doing it for me.

[@InXLsisDeo]

This Brute sounds amazing. Fantastic instrument.

[@RadicalCaveman]

Next time my dog jumps up and chews my arm, I'm going to ask her if she's a MiniBrute.

[@bond4177]

Noooo why'd you set it on the other one!

[@alphanumeric1529]

Cause he doesn't care about these synths. Sometimes a reviewer has to say really great things about the thing being reviewed so they can continue with their career, that's understandable, right, but at the same time, they want to tell you the truth. Sometimes you have to look to subtext to get the whole picture.

[@Zinfidel1]

14:26 "Hi-yah! Surprise Minibrute 2S!"

[@akumaplantstudios8869]

When I'm working, I will buy this 100%. Do I need it? Probably not. But I am fucking buying it.

[@seek4truth]

Hi , putting the keyboard and sequencer aside, 1) which one sounds generally better: Mimibrute 2 or EreBus 3 (oscilators, filters, etc). 2) which one is more versatile for sound design? Thanks!

[@dadodetres]

Hello! Does the Minibrute 2 has a HOLD function for drone of just 1 note? I know it can "hold" the arpegiator, but I need to Drone 1 note. The original minibrute had a 3 way switch on the back for this. The microbrute had a trick for this connecting the gate out into gate in. But I cant seem to imagine how to drone 1 note with the Minibrute 2. Thanks ! on this depends if I buy one or not.

[@dox1755]

When he stacked synths at 14:44 I just feel pain..

[@chrisdeezektor2565]

Question : i want to buy a Drum Machine, but... do you know if this synth can make 909 kicks or 808 kicks? I mean loving this can do and if it can do kicks variations would be just my 1st option

[@LarsBjerregaard]

... and a pretty please: Neutron and Model D. They both seem like very nice hotcake nobrainers, but we need the Nick weighin :-)

[@BitQuests]

I'm a complete noob to this stuff, but can you record sound samples lets say water puring in a cup and then assing this to a key, and change it with all the different modes?

[@haroldthebarrel8337]

Great stuff! It's surprising how many guys demo synths who have zero musicality. You are not one of them!

[@septemberSE7EN]

Really hope quality control is sorted out on this. I have now had two replacements for faulty drumbrutes and build quality of the two beatstep pros I've owned is appalling, would love to see a BSP that is actually flat and not warped/wobbly. Looks and sounds great but for £500+ hope it's got a lot better build quality than I have experienced. I sold all of my arturia gear last week and will not be spending any more of my cash to give them a second chance! Great review as usual Nick :)

[@Knoc_Whearity]

Great vid man,,, i have a Mini and a Micro. they both sound different. not a fan of the Brute factor really, so i use them the way i like them ,this thing has really mellowed out the sound some more, i love it..... on the to buy list... great vid as always...

[@SpeccyMan]

Picked up a second hand 2S. It is a fabulous bit of kit. Now, if I can just find a second hand 3U or 6U ............

[@DoctorPanglossBand]

I bought one of these and the thing that I am disappointed with is that the mod wheel only modulates the pitch with a slight vibrato rather than going into the wild range that most mod wheels can add.

[@joserendons]

Great demostration as always Nick, Arturia Rocks!

[@jona_KardCiv1]

This is the first youtube demo I've seen that doesn't suck. All the rest make it sound like R2D2.

[@patientzero4889]

Hey guys, another great review thanks. Will you be reviewing the MFB Dominion Club at any point? Would really like to see that.

[@fortheloveofnoise]

The sonic labs are back! Looking foward to the Quantum and Prologue (16 voice PLEASE) sonic lab reviews!

[@TheSPoS]

Doof is hardwired to LFO2

[@MartinBaldock]

What is the "pedal" to the left of the synth?

[@jdjk7]

i've never heard of bass described as "doof". I like it. i've had my minibrute 2 for a year now and i'm still just watching because i like nick's reviewing.

[@odditonic4267]

The earlier Minibrute was so flimsy it remains the only synth that I ever broke - I miss the sound, but I'm not confident that it will standup to my hamfisted mashing.

[@EricAndre615]

Nice, I've been waiting for the Sonicstate analysis of the Minibrute 2. Definitely the 2S for me. Don't really need any more keys. I pre-ordered one and was hoping they would be out by now. I guess it shouldn't be too much longer.

[@kobalt77]

Thank you Nick. Yep, I get the Low end all right, something I thought the original "Brutes" lacked somewhat. I can definitely feel the bass in this, no problem at all. I'm loving this, another great video, thank you my friend.

[@karimnasser9226]

For the life of me I cannot understand why anyone would buy a synth especially with such flexibility but does not save patches, it is beyond my comprehension I guess. I have been playing synths since the 1990s but do not understand the classic Moogs and these synths. Moog finally woke up and produced synths which allow you to save patches. Arturia apparently does not want to except for their massive Matrixbrute. Too bad because I really like the sound so the Minibrute 2. I understand that you can't save the patch cords, well guess what the Matrixbrute solved that problem.

[@chitlun]

Take a photo of the settings/patch cables or use a patch diagram. There’s something quite cathartic about jotting down all the settings. There’s also an app for iOS called Recall Sheets that you can use for this and a handful of other synths to record your patch/cable settings. Of course you’ll never recreate the exact setting you had but so what, part of the joy of analogue synthesis is the organic nature in which sounds evolve.

[@robertsyrett1992]

Dear Sonicstate, please leave the oscilloscope showing in a corner instead of on a screen behind Nick. I would find that much more useful. edit: added please

[@sonicstate]

+Robert Syrett how come? I think it works well and requires a less complex setup

[@robertsyrett1992]

I can appreciate that it takes more effort, but if you look at a channel like DivKidVideo you share a lot of information passively when the oscilloscope is left up. For example, what type of wave shaping is happening with the metalizer? The oscilloscope would be able to share that but it was on a shot of the keyboard. Thanks for tanking the time to reply :)

[@emnigmamachine]

I don't think it's that big of a deal. I think we see enough scope already.

[@robertsyrett1992]

Would it be annoying to you if it were there in the corner?

[@rcmusic35]

Hi Robert, you can use your own oscilloscope (in your daw, resize your window and put side by side of YT window and make sure to select the right audio input). will work great when Nick is not speaking

[@linkhostr]

what soft u use for oscilloscoping

[@skunksmisery]

MB2 is a perfect gateway drug for Eurorack. Weird that the most interesting stuff from NAMM-time this year happened not during but before and after - this and the TR-8S. There goes the gear budget!

[@SyntheticFuture]

My neighbors hated this video... even with youtube compression this went low :D

[@vangeliskostoxenakis]

I’m so biased with arturia. Every piece they make it’s such a mediocre turd.

[@malkytrance]

You can program 2 independant pitch tracks with the minibrute 2s version, each one addressing a different osc!, even seperate oute wave forms or noise from filter and achieve drums and bass at same time if you want.

[@atozee1500]

I don't see a KBD filter tracking knob, how do you regulate that? Does that mean it's always on 100% or do you have to use the patchbay KBD into Filter? or something like that? I'm asking because on the Bass Station 2 it's always on 100%.

[@sonicstate]

+ato zee c.v out of the midi section into mod1 then use mod 1 amount into the filter for the scale amount

[@atozee1500]

Thank you for clarifying this.

[@DeefexNYC]

It sounds very fat and defined. I would def. play with it if I saw it at Guitar center or some other place.

[@krlos37]

Very cool review! Thanks for sharing! Love the sound and the low frequencies. Have a question, is there a Oscilloscope version we can use for this or for any other analog device connected to a DAW? I mean, an Oscilloscope that can be used as a "VST"... or outside of the DAW but while the keyboard connected to the computer. Thanks a lot!!!

[@MarekThe42]

Thank you for the review. Nick, I like most of your reviews, they are informed, pleasant and have that extra something which makes watching them a pleasure :-) But this review was very fast, badly structured and it seems like you were in a rush. No overview of the back panel, no overview of the keyboard, no overview of the patch panel, no mention of the build quality and knobs. When you put Minibrute 2S ON TOP of the regular 2 I was shocked! And when you took it away after a minute I was sad. The shiny twin-reverb had more coverage (you have mentioned it atleast three times, product advertisement?) than the super-uber-cool MB2S with its sequencer. On the other hand, you have atleast three times started the topic of MB2 sequencer. And last thing - I was expecting with your experience in synthesizers, that you will mention and SHOW on the oscilloscope how the waveforms change when driven to the filter. Yes, you have talked about it in the filter section, but when you showed the oscillator on the scope, it was at 100%. All of the reviewers just crank up the waveform sliders, but the mellowness and beauty comes when you tame them to half or 3/4 of their volume. After 1/2 (on all Brutes) they start overdriving and that is where the "Brute harshness" comes from. Lets see that on the scope please! Nope, lets mention the dual reverb again :-( Sorry I am so brute (ha!), but based on your previous reviews, it is clear that you are capable of so much better. Please, do a more in-depth overview of the 2S. As you said, it is a new classic :-)

[@alphanumeric1529]

Yeah man, I feel you. Very breezy review of a synth with a lot of features, the sound engine, the patch bay, the sequencer... there is a lot there to talk about, but he just glossed it. I think that speaks to his real feelings about the synth. He says it is amazing and treats it like second tier synth, which, I guess, it is.

[@chedhead3278]

Lovely. Cheers Nick. Synth on synth action tho....tut tut....you've picked up some bad habits, young man.

[@rush2795]

the burning question I have is: what is that gaping hole on the left side of the instrument??? It's bothering me not knowing what it is

[@rush2795]

nevermind, just saw the mounting system lol

[@MargaretHarmer]

Superbe review again! Thank you Nick! Already super happy with the microbrute - this is fab!

[@miru021]

Hello! Could anyone please tell me what is the oscilloscope software used in this video?

[@nabooka316]

The modified filter sounds different than the original Minibrute that wouldn't self oscillate below 600Hz (not as squelchy?)

[@victormorello2139]

self oscillates down to 80hz-ish ! Slightly softer than the MiniBrute also

[@kotkot8837]

How do you guys think, which of the Brutes is the best one to get ? Besides the Matrix Brute that is.

[@xTheOxx]

This synth, and the review of it, can be boiled down to 21:19.

[@aroomthedoomed]

damn this was savage 🤭: kzbin.info/www/bejne/enOmlZV8gLamZ9km39s

[@user-dl8yo3wv1t]

i was genuinely surprised with the build quality of my microbrute, after i had my hands on it i started paying more attention to arturia

[@vainsacrosanct2014]

Thank you for this verry nice review. Would you consider reviewing this synth together with the Drumbrute?

[@ElPeschke]

How create vibrato mod with lfo to pitch and can play it with keyboard? :)

[@LarsBjerregaard]

Very nice review Nick, especially the sequencing part was good.
