FOLD User Oscillator for Korg Minilogue XD and Korg Prologue

[@simonedmondson7633]

Wow. Just installed this and got sucked in for an hour just playing with the settings, and I’ve only watched half of the walkthrough. Really like the slightly experimental nature of it. Congrats and thanks for the great video walkthrough of the settings!

[@bangmateo7481]

Does this erase my factory presets?

[@simonedmondson7633]

@@bangmateo7481 it doesn't overwrite any existing factory default presets.

[@bangmateo7481]

@@simonedmondson7633 Is this just adding the user wave ocillator then? I guess in this demo he has the other ocillators off in the mixer? Or are we listening to just his custome wave ocillator? Sorry a bit of a newbie.

[@simonedmondson7633]

@@bangmateo7481 when you create your own custom presets, it's possible to set any blend/mix between the user oscillator and other oscillators on the synth. But I think it's safe to assume that Tim is providing demonstrations in this video that only contains his FOLD oscillator. 👍

[@bangmateo7481]

@@simonedmondson7633 Got it thank you.

[@soyfernansu]

I just bought FOLD, I'm very impressed, Minilogue XD has so much potencial and your oscillator contribute with that. Thanks!

[@ConwayBob]

Thank you, Tim, for creating FOLD and showing us so clearly and completely how to use it! I find it quite musical when used with care. ❤

[@billfinch4661]

Tim has created a post-apocalyptic soundscape and invited us to stroll through it with him! I can get cellos with a plug in.

[@Paul_Y_T]

sounds really good - love what you're doing with the ^logue user oscs.

[@jbowmanmusic]

Thank you, wonderfully experimental waveform sounds great in my Prologue

[@AndyWardpara]

Just bought the XD yesterday, was curious as to what people were creating, Wow Tim what a find you are! Some of the patches and demos you create from them produce sounds just like the Duo that the Minilogue was named after (Minilogue are my favourite electronic act) I've spent my budget for this month but next month One and Fold are going in my cart, please keep up the great patches and videos 👌

[@sleeperserviceyoutube7273]

Another great user oscillator and video - thanks Tim! I would like to buy a synth this year - your user oscillators have put the XD at the top of the list ✌️

[@pjmtts]

Is this as awesome as I think it is: My kid, 11 years old, wanted an xd for Christmas I worked with Santa and made it happen Now a whole new world of sound fills our house Any guesses what his birthday wishlist has on it? Along with other synth things, this video adds another download to the list. He would like all of your library in his xd.

[@billfinch4661]

Very nice! I have twin 5 year old grandsons, and the last time we visited I set up my XD for them. They turned knobs, flipped switches and generally had a great deal of fun. The sounds they came up with were interesting to say the least. The next time we visit, I’m bringing my Mac, mixer and enough other junk so we can create some tunes!

[@herbertherbert3909]

You are really beginning to impress me. Your mastery of synth-Craft is pretty solid. I’m waiting to see my Korg Prologue 16 delivered and I’ll be buying all your waves

[@Angelstarscotland]

Great job very nice, I look forward to getting my hands on FOLD.

[@Diamond_Eyes_24]

If your user oscillators are anything like the quality of your music, commentary & videos Tim.... gotta be worth it!

[@dutchufo4real72]

Hi Tim, amazing channel and thanks for all the information. Keep up that amazing work in all you do. Nice to meet you. My name is Ray (Floatwithme) Dutch composer.

[@AnthonyGoodley]

So I notice this video's title and none of the comments i read mention using this oscillator with the NTS-1. But the web page lists this for the NTS-1. So are there any limitations when using this Osc. on the NTS-1? Do all of the presets work on the NTS-1? Watching your videos and trying to decide on a few plugins to buy. I'm already sold on 'Drone'.

[@TimShoebridge]

Hi. The oscillator will work but there is no concept of presets on an NTS-1, you'll have to dial in your own sounds.

[@_Synthesize_Me_]

Preset 17 is to die for!

[@65skyjet]

As always an interesting and technical explanation, I am not a native English speaker, but your way of explaining your project is superlative, Bravo Tim! Preset 4 Ambient / Space-Dark made me goosebumps ... Wow !!

[@annother3350]

Superlative is a great word for a non-native!

[@BobFernando]

I can confirm that cats do not like this video from about 14:15 in. But great work sir. When I get a sec, I'm going to try out some of your creations for sure. Keep it going.

[@MelloState]

Make an OB-8 oscillator. I believe in you man

[@BrokenBeats94]

Nice! Might have to get this as it would be great to have the option for wavefolding on my XD, I've got a MicroFreak with a decent fold engine however so it's not all that necessary but as someone who used a Buchla System 7 (don't quote me on the 7) at university last year, folding gets some really crazy sounds.

[@djtyson435]

Sounds amazing. I enjoyed all of your other oscillators. Definitely buying this one too. 🙌🏽 (wish I could learn to code for music)

[@lolhleplol]

damn, you are going to get me to buy a mini or prologue.. nice work!

[@bobbfett.musiclab]

Great walkthrough of a great oscillator. Thank you:)

[@erikjacksonvibes]

love this

[@bazykaghofer6162]

Thats so beautiful ❤️ hopefully there come many more oscillators 🙏😊

[@mulkytool]

Can you add more folds, to each fold, and then more to those, like basically a fractal of that waveform? is that a thing? I'm new to all this.

[@sugurukase1046]

Hi, I really appreciate your work. Have you ever considered also building your custom oscillators for Korg NTS-1? I know it is not as feature rich as the xd but it's still a very handy evaluation platform. I have had a lot of fun using it as a effect unit for Volcas recently.

[@TimShoebridge]

夏世杰 Thanks very much. Yes I am waiting for mine to arrive, I have it on pre-order, it will hopefully arrive end of January...

[@eyeball226]

It a cool idea but doesn't have much to do with real wavefolding. Arguably this is closer to the resonant phase distortion waveforms from a Casio CZ than it is wavefolding.

[@s3nsec0rruptr80]

Hm, I love CZ sounds, that's really intriguing. Has me more sold on this oscillator now

[@MediaMusik777]

reminds me of pigments....and would not mind dropping a pigments wave fold in the 8 bit slot

[@terrormech]

the nts1 is compatible with Korg's logue-SDK, has anyone tried running something like fold on that or is it lacking some other control that would make that non-feasible?

[@TimShoebridge]

Still waiting for my NTS-1 to arrive but it is compatible and Fold will work on it

[@phoenixrising1576]

Tim thank you for your videos. Im wondering is it possible to sequence the prologue with the Minilogue OG and record the motion control?

[@RockLobster223]

This is the second Oscillator I've bought from the now legendary Tim Shoebridge!! Amazing stuff, where does it end?

[@ChazSeamus28]

sounds awesome

[@mpmi7588]

Does anyone know of any user oscillators that sound close enough to pass for M1, DX7 or D50 sounds?

[@danielpirone8028]

Missing graphics at 5:10?

[@danielpirone8028]

Ahh it is just very faint

[@TimShoebridge]

Daniel Pirone Ahhhh sorry, they looked ok on my PC monitor when I was editing but I now realise they are very feint playing the video on my tablet. Trouble is it’s now too late to do anything, YT does not allow updates to uploaded videos

[@danielpirone8028]

Now worries - I can see them if I use my laptop- just not on phone or tablet. Great synth - keep it up!

[@2587Lucky]

55 seconds in and ...wow!

[@SashaYokey]

Perfect!

[@frankogio5715]

hi ! why sound almost in left channel ?

[@froguy88]

How do you make your own user oscillators? Is there a software?

[@TimShoebridge]

darin sanchez There is no software to help you, you need to program the oscillator or effect using the C/C++ programming language

[@NatLifeSounds]

Amazing! amd the quality of video too, is it Sony or Canon?

[@TimShoebridge]

Many thanks :) It is actually Panasonic - GH5

[@NatLifeSounds]

​@@TimShoebridge i justgot Mark II for doing the videos, but GH5 looks very impressive, interesting retro colours

[@wiseoldfool]

Some very "modular" sounds in this oscillator, including bleeps and boops!

[@kalemitchell_-triumvirate-2507]

Hey Tim! I just recently bought a prologue 8 and when I plugged it into a huge stage sound system, it made a noise. The master volume on the synth was all the way down, and we even made sure that it wasn’t any channels on the board or any of the quarter inch cables. Have you ever had this issue? Or do you know what it could possibly be? Im thinking it’s the jacks that are wonky but idk. UPS delivered mine so they might’ve screwed the electronics up. I just got it 2 days ago as well.

[@fjfrancois]

Hi you don’t program only analog patches without using the digital engine? Thanks

[@thedarkestrainbow]

Fj Francois this video is for a digital oscillator 😬

[@fjfrancois]

[@TimShoebridge]

I’m not sure I fully understand your question. All these presets use the digital engine only and none of the analogue VCO’s...

[@McClane6666]

To bad I can't buy it because I can not use Paypal.
