@@GrootsieTheDog I have the same issue, it makes me crazy and makes it impossible to use the arp with my external sequencer. None of my other synths have this issue. I’m praying that they address the issue but no one ever responds when I try to bring it someone’s attention.

[@bobbycroker19]

If anyone reads this…it still happens when Hydra is set to “auto” there is a glitch when the sequencer stops and the Hydra switches to internal clock. If it’s set to external sync the internal clock completely stops when the sequencer stops. Anything that is BPM synced stops working.

@@GrootsieTheDog Oh man…that would make my Hydra the perfect synth!!

[@ShaunCymruDS8]

Wow..just wow.. that was just an amazing demonstration of the skill of Dominic and the wonderful Hydrasynth! Thank you for sharing.

Modern mainstream producer: “ yeah basically complex patterns are a result of a lot of tweaking and sequencing in FL studio. These old ass hardware stuff is for boomers “ Dominic:

“Naw my brotha you gots to get your own”

[@aeroprojects]

[@nategarcia7694]

Right! Please and Thankyou

Possibly thee best demo of a patch and the unit to date,,,absolutely awesome 👏 thanks for sharing!!!

[@enochroot9438]

stunning performance. I was saving for a deluxe but might just go for an explorer now

[@wernerhaider2338]

hydra is the perfect synth to get you off the daw screen. Glad I own one along with my tuba- they bled together really nice.

[@vertigev]

Alright, that's next level!

[@flaviuspopan]

Wow, ok. Jumping in on the hype train for the making-of video. Subscribed!

[@LSDshroomspeyote]

Genius!

[@Davoxx]

Absolutely fantastic how Dominic treat the Explorer. I have this thing for about six weeks and I love it. And more, I hope that Korg & Co will learn about built quality from this Chinese newcomer on the market. I tried the "new three" from Korg and was so disappointed from the keybed.

[@douglaswaterson7107]

Really amazing! As others have said, I’d love a little breakdown of some of the techniques used in the patch / performance.

[@peterkadarmusic9728]

That sounded great, Dominic!

[@Kung_Fu_Jesus]

Ooh crikey!! Big up ASM for a killer synth and Mr Au for a mega patch.

[@gz625]

It would be so cool if you add multitimbrality to Hydrasynth Desktop... Just 2 timbres 4 voice each...

[@GhislainLeveque]

This is pretty amazing, can't wait for the making of!

[@Inspiration_YT_]

Dominic showing off his God powers to us mortals. 🤣🤣🤣

[@TRaddcliff]

its gotta be fun really knowing HOW to use it to its fullest. nice!

[@davidallred991]

hmmmm, I think my Hydrasynth is broke, it doesn't do this.

[@robertsyrett1992]

The hydra synth explorer is JUST right.

[@vertigev]

That second patch is so pretty...

[@Prematron]

Amazing!!!

[@chuckvicious]

well played!

[@m4riner]

holy moly

[@adambenson75]

Wicked kida nin ish

[@nsjx]

show-off 👍🙏🤘😩👏

[@davery99]

Step LFO, held arpeggio or external sequencer please? Sounds amazing!

[@nategarcia7694]

What. The. Fffffff

[@andresgalindoarteaga6413]

All sequences coming from the hydra as well?

[@stefanie_m466]

did you use any effects that are not from the hydrasynth? or is this direct recorded? can the desktop make exactly the same sound?

[@AshunSoundMachines]

Everything generated with a single patch in one take. Recorded its direct stereo output and did minimal mixing in DAW. You can run it on the Hydrasynth Desktop. Making-of and the patch is now available here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKu9Z3ufhbiSoKs

[@henson2k]

Barely touched keys at all.

[@1980VINZ]

Can I do this with my HYDRAsynth ???

[@frankw.kooistra7848]

Yes

[@ikarugamoo]

Sadly you need Dominic’s Explorer for this patch… it has special powers.
