Deepmind // Lo-Fi Sound Design // Tips, Techniques, Walkthrough

Long form "Window Tour" of a lot of lo-fi ideas.
Patch Packs : gumroad.com/jorb
Plenty of tips and tricks, not necessarily ones to use all on one patch, but plenty of ideas for you to take, modify, combine, whatever fits your song, jam, or preference.
Looking for feedback on format, this feels long for the information I mean to be sharing, but still lots of good details throughout, especially if you aren't super familiar with the deepmind.
Thanks for watching, enjoy!

Your videos have convinced me to buy the Deepmind12 a while ago and I haven't regretted it ever since. Once again, cheers for the great insight!

[@JorbLovesGear]

A great compliment! Appreciate that

[@cruzwestin4261]

i know I am kinda randomly asking but does anyone know of a good site to stream new tv shows online?

[@jamiealvaro8669]

@Cruz Westin I use flixportal. Just search on google for it =)

[@griffinpatrick8286]

@Jamie Alvaro Yup, I've been using Flixportal for months myself :)

[@cruzwestin4261]

@Jamie Alvaro Thank you, I went there and it seems like a nice service :) I really appreciate it!

[@benjisanders6270]

Incredible video! Menu diving and sound design at this level may never be my "thing" but you really make it yours and seem extremely comfortable while doing it. Entertaining and informative, props to you bud!

[@JorbLovesGear]

Very kind, all of it. Really appreciate comments like this. Happy to do it, cheers!

[@Steve-of8zo]

Really great video. I never thought about Lo Fi sound but now I understand what difference it makes and why I should All your videos are unique and not just the same old run of the mill, jump on the bandwagon review, for me the information is quite valuable.

[@JorbLovesGear]

🙏🙏🙏Cheers appreciate all that

[@brandontaylor6]

Really enjoy the workflow tips in this vid, like how to edit multiple envelopes at once, map the matrix automatically, etc

[@Somewhere_sometime_somehow]

Great video. Really gives an idea of the depth you can achieve when you tweak with purpose

[@lbu4191]

Very cool video as usual man, the Deepmind's got such a broad spectrum of sounds that can come out of it. As to what you were saying at the end i think it was a good format, all of the tips and ideas you went through definitely are under the umbrella of lo-fi sounds, also i dig the arps/sequences you play when you are talking, makes it very chill and soothing to listen to 👍

[@MkUltra612]

Love it, thanks so much for these! I definitely picked up a few great tricks from this video.

[@Layka-be3bz]

This is so, so good. Perfect format. I really appreciate how you explain what you are doing well enough to follow along, but then play it long enough to really listen and appreciate the music. I’ve been wanting a keyboard for the mpc, not wanting another midi co troller, but also not wanting to spend thousands on a synth that I’m not even sure what I want. I’m going to be saving up for one of these. It seems like a perfect entry point to move past software synths. Appreciate you.

[@elliekoumo628]

I can’t wait for you to release your own pack!! exciting times ahead.

[@yayawewheats969]

is this happening soon?

[@lukejxson]

Super informative thank you

[@MegaCraptacular]

Me sees some Board's in my future. Jorb, you're a genius!

[@richardweidner1625]

I will use this, thank you

[@EcoCentrist]

traded a combo amp for one of these... best trade ever. thanks for the super helpful vid!

[@uriahfindley6231]

This was solid. A lot of the stuff is stuff i figured out for lo-fi too, but you also dropped a lot of new ideas! T-Ray is my JAM. (PM is ironically the magic fader to me, cause it's so simple) I like the meandering format. Chapters might be nice with the length. GREAT work. Loving your Deepind vids. just upgraded from a 6 to a 12d myself!

[@JorbLovesGear]

Appreciate that! Yes, it really sounds like people would appreciate a good way to move between sections. I'll plan on that!

[@BarnacleButtock]

p-parameter drift? I love that this being a modern synth they of course have numerous options to fuck it up and make it sound like a broken Casio❤️

[@JorbLovesGear]

LOL exactly, lets make a 'shittier' knob

[@WrvrUgoThrUR]

Thisnis good stuff. I love that LoFi aesthetic. Takes me out the now.

[@traviedoodle]

This was really helpful, thank you!

[@JorbLovesGear]

Happy to share! More to come!

[@adammulkey9703]

Great ideas!

[@JorbLovesGear]

Cheers, hope you get to use some of them!

[@chuckvicious]

Good info. Yes this works good and it's all linked together so I think it was ok to meander a bit with the presentation. I made a really good patch with the first technique you showed. I ended up using LFO 2 to modulate the filter frequently a bit but linked it as well with the mod wheel. I used the pitch up to open up the delay and I put the polyphony in mono with a bit of portamento. Octiving down to a lower frequency, I held a drone note then went back up to the higher octives and got a really good lead sound that was much like a Theremin sound while manipulating the porta. I also added pressure mod to the filter .also added bass boost.( And a bit of velocity sensitivity) The bit crush technique sounded really great at the very end when you were arpeggiating it! Very unique! I think the only thing you may have not shown was I believe at the beginning you said something about using the step sequencer to to something but maybe you missed one point you were going to show.

[@JorbLovesGear]

Sounds great. I definitely meant to demo the portamento, fixed portamento is a favorite trick of mine. And yes there's a few continuity errors, I redid the back half after my phone ran out of storage. Cheers!

[@DroppedandSkrewed]

Very cool

[@ushnicyuvnikof2748]

Flange over Chorus! Phasers are even more super slept on.

[@JorbLovesGear]

Thats how i feel, absolutely. Phasers are my favorite!

[@alkaiosmusic]

Excellent tips, it was a great tour through lot of ideas! Definitely to my bag of Deepmind tricks, but of course a lot of what you showed could be applied to any poly synth with a mod matrix. About the feedback on form, really liked it BUT maybe some sort of index can be helpful to check the info multiple times or skip things you just know (you don't have to be like Loopop, but his index is really helpful in long videos). Anyway, thank you for your videos!

[@JorbLovesGear]

Loopop is someone who's work I really look up to. I've dabbled in doing hard cut structured stuff like he does, but find I work best & share my best tips when I'm just working off the top of my head. I should watch it back and mark some divisions! At least where I change topics. Cheers

[@yayawewheats969]

more of these style videos! don't know if you have a prophet rev2 but i would love this type of video for that beast of a synth

[@JorbLovesGear]

I dont, but its on the "If i get a good deal" list! Really after a modern 2 oscillator poly.

[@yayawewheats969]

18:09 ;)

[@GuyFromNet]

Dude! After watching newly released good gear episode your channel might seem to be a synth circus at the first glance, but if you take a closer look you will fall into rabbit hole of deep and advanced tutorials!

[@JorbLovesGear]

Really happy to hear this! I'm mostly proud of my long form tutorial stuff, I feel like sharing information this way is when I'm at my best. Thank you!

[@baramundi__88__]

Great video. What is your opinion on DM12 for drums and percussive sounds and effect?

[@JorbLovesGear]

Can handle it well! The strong mod matrix lets you do creative stuff with velocity and note number, etc. And the effects let you do delay tricks for claps, or use the amp sims for some grit, etc.

[@PodOfHeat]

Great video Jorb. I love this synth! SUBBED!! P.s. what does the Keyboard slider do? Does that make the notes sharper in tone the higher up the key bed you play? Many thanks

[@JorbLovesGear]

Run into less trouble describing it as "brighter" but you've got it, opens up the filter cutoff more as you play higher notes

[@PodOfHeat]

@@JorbLovesGear Thanks for your response ✌🏻

[@ReflectingMe2024]

Hey Jorb, taking delivery of a dm12d on Wednesday and am finding your videos absolutely invaluable. Can’t wait to run through some of your techniques whilst having the synth in front of me. Thanks for the great work. Have you done anything on adaptive or generative stuff on the dm? John.

[@JorbLovesGear]

Hope you enjoy it! Nothing specific, just lots of random modulation and deep mod matrix work

[@ReflectingMe2024]

@@JorbLovesGear Despite notice of a slight delay, it (hopefully) is still arriving today! I'd love to see a vid of yours on adaptive/generative stuff if you make one, oh and also I am intrigued by what the MOD envelope is all about, with tricks/tips on how best to employ it. Just some thoughts for you if you were after any ideas for next vids. Ta for replying Jorb, greetings from S.Wales UK.

[@Syntox]

This is a nice ass patch!

[@JorbLovesGear]

Thank you! Lots of my tricks on display

[@bigleafwoodcraft1453]

Hey dude... I just wanted to say I think we'd be good buds if we met in person. If you are ever in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, hit me up! Thanks for making the deepmind tutorials. Quite helpful!

[@JorbLovesGear]

🙏🙏happy to do em, cheers

[@booyobambooyo2563]

Can i overdub a melody on an arpeggiator pattern??Has it rec/play mode to the arp or step sequencer??

[@JorbLovesGear]

No step sequencer for notes, just a cv sequence. And you cannot play over the arp

[@npc2071]

How much would i miss out if i bought the desktop module. Is there anything special in the keys that cant be found in midi controllers?

[@JorbLovesGear]

Nothing, just a different form factor

[@BasedFrequency]

Hey jorb, you a cutie inside and out

[@ThriveSkateboards]

Did you just Adam Neeley @18:09

[@Musikkeller-Innsider]

I wasn't sure if the sound f licc ered a bit here 😊

[@galifettetv1238]

Why are the dm's preset so poor? No matter, jorb's soyndbanks are here.

[@JorbLovesGear]

Happy to provide, hope you get good use from em
