How fun is the Softpop 2?

[@Congasjones]

Such an underrated synth -it’s almost like a groove box too it’s just so patch able and beautifully chaotic

[@RedMeansRecording]

Wow you are getting really awesome stuff out of this.

[@truecuckoo]

Thanks pal! I love it! And I’m just scratching the surface.

[@thomp9054]

You should join their band Jeremy Or just you two would be sick honestly✌️

[@charliecowan9973]

This is exactly what I was hoping I could find to do experimental, improvised noise performances. It's on my list for next year for sure.

[@bricelory9534]

What an awesome jam with the soft vocalizations. You pulled a lot out of this thing!

[@truecuckoo]

Thanks Brice! I love this thing :D

[@JMGtII]

Ummmm... SP stands for SoftPop? Love your chill vibe, your bleeps and even your bloops. Bet you get that all the time 😂

[@slowandsunlit]

Great overview Cuckoo. I was really struggling to work out the sequencer before this, thank you!

[@vinylarchaeologist]

Cuckoo: "This is SoftPop". Also Cuckoo: "Not sure what the SP stands for". 😊❤️

[@truecuckoo]

This is softpop softpop two ❤️

[@SphericEl]

Softpop Softpop Too 🙃

Something mysterious and magical about this little thing.

[@AllenDavisWV]

Never change, my dude! Your videos are so organic and full of the joy of discovery ❤

[@infn8loopmusic]

This video sealed in my decision to pickup this synth and I absolutely love it.

[@DomDomPop]

Hot damn I can’t wait until mine gets in and I get to try some of this stuff. You found some super fun sounding combinations there. Can’t wait to combine this with the Zebu.

[@deerfeeder]

semi-modular usually just means that some connections are normalized to a default path. if anything it is just makes it 'better'

[@truecuckoo]

Yeah, but the word “semi” has a kinda vibe like it’s not fully modular. But it is. Just like you say.

[@kaitlyn__L]

It's funny how language evolves like that, especially jargon. Because of course, "full" modular just means you're absolutely compelled to patch stuff manually if you want to hear anything. While it's optional in semi-modular. But that's a really weird way of phrasing it when you think about it, more accurate would really be "cables mandatory" and "cables optional" or something. Because "semi-modular" almost sounds like you might have only a couple of patch points rather than full control over every parameter. Of course, some semi-modular stuff IS like that... but some (less, but some) fully-modular gear can be too! So one doesn't necessarily go with the other.

[@BassAnywhere]

I always enjoy watching your videos Andreas, keep it up !

[@smacksalad]

Amazing stuff. I love this little synth, I'm hoping to have it feature on my next release. The Softpop 2 is an amazing sequel, everything great about the first plus tons of improvements/features. Its def bonkers. Thats the right word for it :)

[@truecuckoo]

Bonkers! ❤️

[@mariodanix1211]

also love your" chanting" to the sound ----nice

[@shebrr]

This is what I thought my volca modular was gonna be like

[@owRekssjfjxjxuurrpqpqss]

This synth feels so cuckoo. Loved the sequences at the end, beautiful.

[@truecuckoo]

Thank you! I appreciate that, mate 🙏🏼

[@SphericEl]

Yeah if Cuckoo say its bonkers , that means something! But musical too.

[@dmcinnis23]

Right around 19:50 reminds me of Jean-Michel Jarre but...you know...fast!

[@gadd1111]

Wowsers You absolute rocked this Incredible sounds dude

[@icareg]

It was starting to become a headache at 1st, but then he hit that sweet spot and it was amazing

[@RaverOperatorGeeza]

Those sliders n faders look really wobbly. If they were built steady then if think about buying this piece of kit: great way to learn about CV in a small unit that doesn't take up a euroracks with of storage in your home/studio, but a lot of sound manipulation within such a tiny box is insane!!

[@Congasjones]

The unit is really well put together a minor amount of wobble but generally very solid + it’s amazing !

[@DarkTapes]

Super cool noise box! It looks like a fountain of inspiration!

[@DirtyPlumbus]

It looks like it'd be fun to explore.

[@SphericEl]

Hi Cuckoo - lovely performance and sound. Did you ever make a follow up video with more of this?

[@weddiedon]

Sp = soft pop... No?

[@paolopaolomusik]

and this is why I still can't buy a car. 😂 your jams are awesome man.

[@DJHUNDEFRIEDHOF]

I really like that video and I love the Bastl softpop! Thanks for sharing ❤

[@eyesintheskies]

It’s nice you finally found a use for your shaving mirror 😉

[@andropolonsky]

You make me totally cuokoo!..and smiling!…thank you Master!

[@truecuckoo]

Thank you! ❤️ Cuckoo is a good feeling :D

[@kennethhull5423]

Wanna pair one of these with a Behringer tb3mo so bad!

[@BennyBottema]

Careful, getting into Aphex Twin territory here ;)

[@goodsoundesign]

Thanks bro, like all you videos!!! 🙏🏻

[@patricketp8356]

What a lovely jam!

[@Da1AliBi]

"Of course you want the light." - What else! 🤣

[@pianobryguy]

Ordering one!! Can someone switch micro-USB to USB-C when it arrives? Thanks in advance

[@gkillmaster]

fantastic performance. I loved it a lot!! mesmerized me.

[@djcuvcuv]

omg this is so darn cool. cuckoo do you still have your make noise 0-coast and have you (or could you) compare it to the sp2? thanks!!

[@misterfyde]

If the webpage with the manual and info for the softpop went down due to some server issues or something, you could say you had an SP 404 lol

[@truecuckoo]

haha

[@davidcrane1766]

Can this connect to something like Korg Volcas? Great stuff, love your videos!!

[@aevin_io]

im SO buying this

[@nielsaras]

Hey people get ready for the next Softpop Update because you’ll have 8 selectable Digital Oscillator!!!!!

[@manny_f]

This is the ASMR version of synth reviews. 10/10

[@peladoclaus]

He was doing ASMR psytrance at the end there...

[@DavidAhlund]

Your reaction at 2:15! 😄

[@sillyworm]

Curious...how much is the TX6 adding to the sound here? I mean...you're getting this super sweet percussive thing going( who needs a drum machine)...just wondering what the TX6 is adding? It sells for a pretty penny...this synth is on my list..

[@Unifono2012]

Great sounds

[@quantum_ocean]

I bought it a few months ago, but thinking to sell it. Just not able to get anything good out of it.

[@sn1000k]

Great video! Thanks

[@buyukberber]

Awesome!

[@wallaslas5469]

thanks, this is excellent

[@mariodanix1211]

remind´s me on a great old Tekno vinyl from WAKO

[@kenniferlopez1]

The goal is to pair this with a td3 mo.

[@SonicVibe]

Sounds good 👌

[@truecuckoo]

Thank you! 🙏🏼

[@Dullbedsitblogger]

Gahhh just when I had put the sp2 to the back of my mind!!!

[@mariodanix1211]

I like it too

[@CengizArslanpay]

can the softpop run on a powerbank? :)

[@truecuckoo]

Yeah it’s USB powered and runs off any mobile phone charger. Powerbanks too.

[@dannymack9636]

Can you get a tune out of it though.

[@Congasjones]

Yes you can the scale quantise and pattern recording is easy and it can sound very mellow and tuneful -watch loopop review to see a different side to it ?

[@lorez6063]

Man, that TX-6 is so overpriced, it's an absolute joke.

[@trabouliste1037]

If not even True Cuckoo can convince me of the qualities of this synth, it seems to me, the SP2 is to blame.

[@Chris-vr8cd]

i can't beleive you bought that tiny mixer *facepalm*

[@stockholm1752]

Yep. That’s the Facepalm FP 2. 🤦🏼🤦🏼‍♂

[@Chris-vr8cd]

@@stockholm1752 yea thats the facepalm 500 only $1200

[@GizzyDillespee]

He helped design it?! Its potential value to me isn't worth the asking price, but for some people it will be..

[@owRekssjfjxjxuurrpqpqss]

Remember when the op-1 was 799 :/. Then they kept increasing the price year over year because they realized they could become a luxury status symbol company over a music company. I want the op-1 field some day but man it is not worth 2000. Also whack for a 2000 dollar synth to have fucking Velcro permanently on the back of it.

[@Koettnylle]

Sir, this is the softpop 2

[@ickebins6948]

You're lost... Nobody cares about the OP-1...
