Arturia Modular-V Walkthrough Ep.07 - Preset Deconstruct No.1

The Moog Modular was an absolute monster of a synthesizer, and Arturia's emulation of it is a joy to behold. It's a great introduction to Modular synthesis - the idea of building a synth from blocks of components - since
it's so easy to make amazing sounds!
In this episode I take a preset that comes bundled with the VST, and reverse engineer it to find out what's going on.
It's only when we see synths making real sounds like this that we truly get an idea of the context of how complex sounds can be achieved, so I think this is a great way to learn how a synth works.
About me:
My name is Anthony Chisnall. I'm a musician and a songwriter. I've created this channel - One Man and His Songs - in order to share with you everything I learn as I strive to improve my songwriting skills. Watch my songs evolve each week - the rhythms, the melodies, the lyrics, the production... everything I need to learn in order to produce professional-sounding music of which I can be proud!
I play the electric and acoustic guitar, and the bass guitar, and record all of my own synth-based sounds myself too, but I can't sing very well (huge understatement!), and so my wife, Pauline, who has a lovely singing voice, has come to my rescue. You'll hear her on all of my songs.
All of my music is written in Steinberg's Cubase.
I want to build a community of music-lovers with whom I can share my experiences, and from whom I can gain valuable feedback as I pursue my dream of learning to write great songs. I really hope you'll join me on my journey!

You are AMAZING, thanks for the information

[@cosmosraven]

Thank you very much...not just for some incredibly useful stuff but also acceding to my request for clearer audio. These deconstruction exercises need dedication and hard work. Thanks once again.

[@OneManAndHisSongs]

No problem! I'm still to this day trying to improve the overall technical quality of my productions - it seems there's always something new to overlook :)

[@konsin1988]

Thank you for describing so interesting and rare theme! Two things: you don't touch the subject "key follow", both filters are affected of K2; and the settings of fixed filter bank, they affected the sound too (first oscillator). Thanks a lot!

[@OneManAndHisSongs]

Hi, thanks for your kind comments, and I appreciate you pointing those things out. Key Follow in particular can easily slip by un-noticed, since the visual indication is so minimal, and it's often used to colour an effect that's already in play, rather than take centre stage itself.
