Make Noise Soundhack Spectraphon - Spectral Oscillator - SonicLAB Review By MATTHS

[@KordTaylor]

Great demo and a cool module. Thank you! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🚀

[@Paintopia_VR]

Cool review but why is no one putting a ring mod'ed or wavefold'ed sound into this??? If you use ring mod and or a wavefolder to create specific intervals in your harmonics then put it into this you can isolate specific harmonic intervals and create some interesting timbre/harmony using consonant intervals and scrumptious sounds like evolving drones and things of that nature...

[@magnopere]

I feel like the demos aren't even scratching the surface of this thing. I want someone to run a drum loop through one osc and use it to FM the other.

[@Paintopia_VR]

@@magnopere yes exactly, this thing is very deep, if we look at the methods of the spectral musicians of history there is much here to explore. I feel working with the spectra in intentional ways specifically targeting harmonic intervals is key. Making drums sound like a digeridoo is fun too ha.

Thanks Matths / Sonicstate 👍

Great review and use examples. Helped me get off to a good start with mine. It is a very impressive sounding module, with lots of hidden potential. Looking forward to trying some different audio sources through it. Also looking forward to self patching experiments. This, Maths, and Mimeophone, are a powerful combination. Would love it if they made a combined Q-Pass + Mimeophone + Spectral delay/reverb, with the new hardware platform.

Nice review Matt. Incredible module.

[@banksideleopards2791]

Rossum electronic have also done a spectral resynthesiser, it's the Panharmonium

[@robertsyrett1992]

But in dual oscillator format? I think that's quite a twist. (panharmonium rocks also, btw)

[@banksideleopards2791]

@@robertsyrett1992 Nope in steréo but I think you can get more functions to play with. I really like the sound of the spectraphon to

[@coco805]

Totally! it is like the panharmonium's weird little inbreed cousin.

[@guysmiley7289]

I'll bet my right kidney that it is put together more solidly too. The knobs on Rossum are SOLID and Make Noises knobs do not feel solid and are pretty wobbly.

[@banksideleopards2791]

@@guysmiley7289 Yep very true, I've the Trident and compare to the Make Noise O cost knobs are craps...

[@teebeedahbow]

Great! like a spectral vocoder!

[@BrunoWiebelt]

this is super interesting thx mats

[@mariomontreuil7097]

i need to have it

[@Indianabones007]

Great review, definitely getting this

[@D1570R73D]

The word you were looking for was extract, not extrapolate. Extrapolation is when you predict data based on existing data. No prediction here.

[@andybside]

Did I miss hearing the original sound? Kind of hard to know what its doing not knowing that. Sounds insane though.

[@andybside]

Duh. Its is the oscillator. Haha. Never mind. I thought it was processing incoming audio. This thing is badass.

[@RottenRotny]

Neato. I'm not really even very into modular and I want one just to run audio through and fuck up the sounds!

[@coco805]

Make Noise sparing no expense, every single eurorack channel has a review of this. Sounds like a cool module, but I'm already feeling exhausted from the hype and it's just been a few days.

[@qtvreference4029]

You really went out of your way to type that?

[@philippendletonmusic]

Your problem - not MN,. Go outside, take a walk, listen to a podcast.

[@CrystalClearBruv]

Was actually thinking I wana see more videos of this since there ain’t many around quite yet… Either way am Intrigued with this module hype or no hype

[@magnopere]

Go outside. Stop watching KZbin videos all day.

[@mraymond77]

This thing is freaking cool.

[@dynatwenty]

i want it!

[@kostantinosmag2986]

Nice.......

[@zoundsic]

I'm jealous u got one way before me. 😀

I Would Like Some Rocky-Road Spectrally CHUNKY please.

[@Koko161081]

Unfortunately for me, the Spectraphon and the Panharmonium are state-of-the-art tool that I can't find any meaningful use for... Horses for courses.

[@snörre23]

Saves money. Same here, i understand that its a unique concept but unfortunately the sounds it makes are not that unique to make me want to buy it.

[@russ254]

why would anyone need this when Taylor Swift has all the sounds we’ll ever need?

[@magnopere]

​@@russ254 what's the timbral character of these teardrops on my guitar?

[@n0tett]

I prefer clouds in Spectral Madness mode.

Instant Trent Reznor

Too expensive
