FEEDBACK

Audio feedback loops can lead to wonderful and horrible results. In this video we'll mostly explore the latter.

Toshimaru Nakamura's NIMB solo albums are cool from a purely technical standpoint just to hear the sheer range of what you can do with feedback. His work with Keith Rowe is just magic.

[@timnordberg7204]

they're even cooler from a musical standpoint

[@GeorgeLocke]

@@timnordberg7204 I don't disagree. I guess I highlighted the "purely technical" angle b/c the music itself will not be to everyone's taste, but even if you don't usually like abstract, beatless music, you can still be amazed at what Nakamura can wrest from his instrument. But you're right that, anyone can appreciate a master in their element.

"Feedback loop"? More like "Feedback OOF!"" Seriously though, feedback is one of my favourite sonic techniques so this is right up my street. Excellent, as always.

[@geraldgoodiii6993]

U can do a feedback loop with the OPTOMIX or the Modemix. The opto works as a cool oscillator that way. It’s been a min but as I recall the damp knob Works as like a PWM sort of sound *modemix self patched feedback. Same with opto. Wanted to clarify. Make Noise 🤟🏿

[@SoundDevour]

Excellent! Could not have watched this at more perfect time! Thanks Walker for all your videos.

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Glad to hear it!

[@edjwise]

I love the organic nature of feedback, controlling the timbre and pitch, or the amplitude and pitch at the same time and with the nonlinearities it feels organic and alive.

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Ditto! Thanks for the comment :D

[@jacobstern2150]

Wow I'm shocked how good the CV bus feedback sounds! Great video!

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Thanks!

[@jangbi08]

Make Noise!

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Always!

[@JaseLovesDub]

Wonderful. Nice to see Éliane Radigue get a mention too. I'm reading Intermediary Spaces at the moment and there's a section where she describes the types of feedback she used. It's fascinating stuff!

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

That's a very enlightening book! The "Feedback Works" collection is a must-listen.

[@CinematicLaboratory]

Again, totally amazed by the versatility of the Shared System. This is going to be fun to explore and maybe find some musical elements by pitching the feedback with the echophon.

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Putting the Echophon pitch shifter in is a lot of fun! Too bad there wasn't more time in this vid :( but share what you find!

[@thamelmusic]

Hell that diving feedback at 9'02 !!! Great vid as always !

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Thanks!

amazing 🤩

Woww 🤯 love it ! Makes for a piercing lead ! Thanks walker !

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Thanks for watching!

[@shedarfondu]

more i watch these videos and more i need a black&gold system ❤️❤️

[@KeithCanisius]

Nice video! I liked how your T-shirt matched the Curtains, subtle detail :-)

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Thanks for noticing! I always try to pick the appropriate shirt for the topic and this one was DEFINITELY the appropriate shirt for this topic :)

[@KeithCanisius]

@@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC Indeed my friend! :-)

[@FelipeTellez]

*Listens to vid at 5% volume, still loud* =PPPP !!! on a series note, very cool and trippy!

[@solarlarvae]

Excellent! Could we have a future video explaining uses of positive and negative feedback with control voltages? :-)

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Good idea!

[@stevenjavro2038]

I think you stole my face, and left a lightning bolt in its place.

[@VocalChainsStudio]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@noidsch2129]

Yesss!!!!!

[@terryyaki7782]

I like to use modules like QPAS or Clouds at the end of my feedback loops to give them a stereo field. A reverb at the end of the chain can help to soften some harshness and open the panorama.

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Totally! I used the reverb within the path on this one because it was more EXTREME but another at the end is definitely helpful for beautification!

[@geraldgoodiii6993]

WTF.. using the DPOs waveshaping circuit as an external waveshaper ? Mind blown 🤯

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

You can run just about any audio into the ANGLE CV input but it does have a max frequency (meaning it doesn't really pass more complex audio like field recordings), but it is a lot of fun to play around with :)

[@Jac7k]

Can y’all add that shirt to your webstore? I’d like to buy about 300 for my wardrobe. Thx

[@elmeromero3836]

Hey, you can pick up an old behringer mixer for cheap to do this .

[@brnsndwch]

5:00 could do footwork on that

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

would love to see it! :P

[@evilkillbot9414]

You mention potential damage to speakers and hearing, is there any risk of damaging the modules themselves?(exceeding input voltage limits)

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

Not when patching within the system. The rails can't exceed their max voltage levels.

[@jmawa8616]

please get that t-shirt to Schneidersladen in berlin :DDDD

[@turnbullac1]

Dumb question but what adapter did you use on the 1/4” jack on the cv bus? Just a headphone adapter?

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

1/8" to 1/4" mono (TS) adapter

[@franknada6427]

Camo t shirt a feedback loop delay of the curtain , zebras rise up

C'mon Pooky, ride that FEEDBACK Pony....🐴🐾👀💦💥

[@allisonwatling9565]

lost my mind at the automatic feedback acid lines @ 5:00

[@MAKEN0ISEMUSIC]

I was a little surprised at those patterns myself! Let them play out for much longer than I initially intended to, just because they were kinda fascinating :D

[@tripleraven]

how to make harsh noise.

[@DJ_Cthulhu]

A=Ao/(1+B•Ao) 😉

[@garywallace1938]

Love feedback but your shirt and the those curtains fuk up my eyes! 😵 (Like feedback to ears, I suppose)
